## Description

- description: 'We report nano-imaging experiments demonstrating that crystals of
    hBN, a natural mid-infrared hyperbolic material , can act as a “hyperlens” and
    as a multi-mode waveguide. The lensing is manifested by subdiffractional focusing
    of phonon-polaritons launched by metallic disks underneath the hBN crystal. The
    waveguiding is revealed through the modal analysis of the periodic patterns observed
    around such launchers and near the sample edges. '
