Cloaked electromagnetic, acoustic, and quantum amplifiers via transformation optics.
The advent of transformation optics and metamaterials has made possible devices producing extreme effects on wave propagation. Here we describe a class of invisible reservoirs and amplifiers for waves, which we refer to as Schrödinger hats. The unifying mathematical principle on which these are based admits such devices for any time harmonic waves modeled by either the Helmholtz or Schrödinger ...
متن کاملIsotropic transformation optics: approximate acoustic and quantum cloaking
Transformation optics constructions have allowed the design of electromagnetic, acoustic and quantum parameters that steer waves around a region without penetrating it, so that the region is hidden from external observations. The material parameters are anisotropic, and singular at the interface between the cloaked and uncloaked regions, making physical realization a challenge. We address this ...
متن کاملCloaking Devices, Electromagnetic Wormholes, and Transformation Optics
We describe recent theoretical and experimental progress on making objects invisible to detection by electromagnetic waves. Ideas for devices that would have once seemed fanciful may now be at least approximately implemented physically using a new class of artificially structured materials called metamaterials. Maxwell’s equations have transformation laws that allow for design of electromagneti...
متن کاملTransformation optics: approaching broadband electromagnetic cloaking
An approach to broadband cloaking of light waves is analysed for a simplified case of a scaling transformation for a general cylindrical coordinate system. The proposed approach requires metamaterials with specifically engineered dispersion. The restriction on the signs of gradients in the dispersion dependencies of the dielectric permittivity and the magnetic permeability for different operati...
متن کاملElectromagnetic Scattering by Approximately Cloaked Dielectric Cylinder
In cloaking, a body is hidden from detection by surrounding it by a coating consisting of an unusual anisotropic nonhomogeneous material. The permittivity and permeability of such a cloak are determined by the coordinate transformation of compressing a hidden 2D or cylindrical body into a line. Some components of the electrical parameters of the cloaking material (ε, μ) are required to have inf...
