الوصف: Flat lens concept based on negative refraction proposed by Veselago in 1968 has been mostly investigated in monochromatic regime. It was recently recognized that time development of the super-lensing effect discovered in 2000 by Pendry is yet to be assessed and may spring surprises: Time-dependent illumination could improve the spatial resolution of the focusing. We investigate dynamics of flexural wave focusing by a 45\degre-tilted square lattice of circular holes drilled in a Duraluminium plate. Time-resolved experiments reveal that the focused image shrinks with time below diffraction limit, with a lateral resolution increasing from 0.8 $\lambda$ to 0.35 $\lambda$, whereas focusing under harmonic excitation remains diffraction limited. Modal analysis reveals the role in pulse reconstruction of radiating lens resonances, which repeatedly self-synchronize at the focal spot to shape a super-oscillating field.
