Abstract
We present experimental observations and numerical simulations of superlensing effect in liquid surface waves. We use rigid cylinders to create a two-dimensional periodic lattice, in which liquid surface waves propagate. Through the observation of a superlensing effect, we demonstrate the existence of negative refraction in surface waves. In addition, a complete band gap is found.Keywords
