Luneberg lens

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.04 sec.
Luneberg lens [′lü·nə‚bərg ‚lenz]
(electromagnetism)
A type of antenna consisting of a dielectric sphere whose index of refraction varies with distance from the center of the sphere so that a beam of parallel rays falling on the lens is focused at a point on the lens surface diametrically opposite from the direction of incidence, and, conversely, energy emanating from a point on the surface is focused into a plane wave. Accurately spelled Luneburg lens.
