The concept of the perfect lens introduced by Pendry [Phys. Rev. Lett. 85, 3966 (2000)], i.e., a possibility to achieve optical resolution well below the wavelength limit using a backward wave (also called Veselago or double-negative) material slab lens, is reinvestigated. It is shown that there is a direct analogy between the phenomena taking place at the slab interfaces and at a couple of phase-conjugating planes placed in free space. Thus, this work introduces an alternative to Pendry's device. The physics behind the idea is discussed and certain directions of possible realizations are outlined.
