Cloaking of matter waves.

چکیده
Invariant transformation for quantum mechanical systems is proposed. A cloaking of matter wave can be realized at given energy by designing the potential and effective mass of the matter waves in the cloaking region. The general conditions required for such a cloaking are determined and confirmed by both the wave and particle (classical) approaches. We show that it may be possible to construct such a cloaking system for cold atoms using optical lattices.

Cloaking and Invisibility: A Review
Invisibility has been a tantalizing concept for mankind over several centuries. With recent developments in metamaterial science and nanotechnology, the possibility of cloaking objects to incoming electromagnetic radiation has been escaping the realm of science fiction to become a technological reality. In this article, we review the state-of-the-art in the science of invisibility for electroma...
متن کاملCloaking a sensor via transformation optics.
Ideal transformation optics cloaking at positive frequency, besides rendering the cloaked region invisible to detection by scattering of incident waves, also shields the region from those same waves. In contrast, we demonstrate that approximate cloaking permits a strong coupling between the cloaked and uncloaked regions; careful choice of parameters allows this coupling to be amplified, leading...
متن کاملWatching outside while under a carpet cloak of invisibility.
We demonstrate in this work a unique approach for watching outside while hiding in a carpet cloaking based on transformation optics. Unlike conventional carpet cloaking, which screens all the incident electromagnetic waves, we break the cloak and allow incident light get into the carpet. Hence outside information is detected inside the cloak. To recover the invisible cloaking, complementary tec...
متن کاملMultiple scattering induced negative refraction of matter waves.
Starting from fundamental multiple scattering theory it is shown that negative refraction indices are feasible for matter waves passing a well-defined ensemble of scatterers. A simple approach to this topic is presented and explicit examples for systems of scatterers in 1D and 3D are stated that imply negative refraction for a generic incoming quantum wave packet. Essential features of the effe...
متن کاملCloaking of single and multiple elliptical cylinders and strips with confocal elliptical nanostructured graphene metasurface.
In this paper, we present a novel analytical approach for cloaking of dielectric and metallic elliptical cylinders with a graphene monolayer and a nanostructured graphene metasurface at low-terahertz frequencies. The analytical approach is based on the solution of the electromagnetic scattering problem in terms of elliptical waves represented by the radial and angular even and odd Mathieu funct...
