A design method, apparatus, and fabrication method for structures for controlling the flow of electromagnetic energy at a sub-wavelength scale is disclosed. Transformational optics principles are used as a starting point for the design of structures that operate as, for example, hyperlenses or concentrators such that evanescent waves at a first surface are radiated in the far field at a second surface. Plane waves incident at a first surface may be focused to a spot size substantially smaller than a wavelength, so as to interact with objects at the focal point, or be re-radiated.
