Abstract
A lens is provided. The lens includes a first two-dimensional (2-D) grid of capacitive patches and a first sheet layer. The first sheet layer includes a dielectric sheet and a second 2-D grid of capacitive patches. The dielectric sheet has a front surface and a back surface. The first 2-D grid of capacitive patches is mounted directly on the back surface of the dielectric sheet, and the second 2-D grid of capacitive patches is mounted directly on the front surface of the dielectric sheet. The first 2-D grid of capacitive patches is aligned with the second 2-D grid of capacitive patches to form a time delay circuit at each grid position of the aligned 2-D grids.
