Based on the two-dimensional dielectric wedge-shaped photonic crystal, we studied the existence of two kinds of equivalent refractive indexes (negative refractive index is −1, positive refractive index is 1.897) in the photonic crystal by means of fast Fourier transform (FFT), as well as its influence on the optical propagation characteristics was discussed. By adjusting the wedge angle of the photonic crystal to eliminate the influence of positive refraction beam on the imaging, the sub wavelength focusing with half-width less than half of a wavelength can be realized. The numerical results show that the Full Width Half Maximum (FWHM) of the image point can reach a minimum of 0.41λ when the wedge angle of the photonic crystal is 73°.
