Hiding an elephant into a matchbox with transformation optics
Based on transformation optics, we propose an illusion device that can make objects look much smaller and different than they actually are. In particular, the device has a capability to hide a large object (like an elephant) into a small one (like a matchbox). Compared to previous proposals for illusion devices, there is no requirement for negative refractive index or for spee...
متن کاملDevelopments in Relativistic Nonlinear Optics
We report recent results of experiments and simulations in the regime of peak laser intensities above 10 W/cm, including the following topics: (1) electron and proton acceleration to energies in excess of 10 MeV in well collimated beams; (2) use of laser chirp to control the growth of plasma waves and acceleration of electrons by the Raman instability; (3) all optical injection and acceleration...
متن کاملNonlinear optics in relativistic plasmas.
We review our recent work on the various nonlinear optical processes that occur as an intense laser propagates through a relativistic plasma. These include the experimental observations of electron acceleration driven by laser-wakefield generation, relativistic self-focusing, waveguide formation and laser self-channeling.
متن کاملComplex coordinates in transformation optics
We show that complex coordinates used in conjunction with transformation optics offer an extra degree of freedom that allows control over not only the propagation direction of electromagnetic waves but also their amplitude. We illustrate this idea in two applications. First, we show that in an n-dimensional space one can manipulate the field amplitude for up to n different amplitude distributio...
متن کاملRecent advances in transformation optics.
Within the past a few years, transformation optics has emerged as a new research area, since it provides a general methodology and design tool for manipulating electromagnetic waves in a prescribed manner. Using transformation optics, researchers have demonstrated a host of striking phenomena and devices; many of which were only thought possible in science fiction. In this paper, we review the ...
