Macroscopic broadband optical escalator with force-loaded transformation optics.
Transformation optics enables one to guide and control light at will using metamaterials. However the designed device is deterministic and not flexible for different objects. Based on force-loaded transformation optics we propose a force-induced transformational device, which can realize dynamic escalator metamorphosing continuously between optical elevator and invisibility cloak. This escalato...
متن کاملBroadband Transformation Optics Devices
Recently we have suggested that two-dimensional broadband transformation optics devices based on metamaterial designs may be built using tapered waveguides. Here we review application of this principle to broadband electromagnetic cloaking, trapped rainbow, and novel microscopy devices.
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 کاملHiding 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 کاملBroadband unidirectional behavior of electromagnetic waves based on transformation optics
High directive antennas are fundamental elements for microwave communication and information processing. Here, inspired by the method of transformation optics, we propose and demonstrate a transformation medium to control the transmission path of a point source, resulting in the unidirectional behavior of electromagnetic waves (directional emitter) without any reflectors. The network of inducto...
