Paraxial ray optics cloaking.
Despite much interest and progress in optical spatial cloaking, a three-dimensional (3D), transmitting, continuously multidirectional cloak in the visible regime has not yet been demonstrated. Here we experimentally demonstrate such a cloak using ray optics, albeit with some edge effects. Our device requires no new materials, uses isotropic off-the-shelf optics, scales easily to cloak arbitrari...
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 کاملModified Physical Optics Approximation for RCS Calculation of Electrically Large Objects with Coated Dielectric
The Radar Cross Section of a target plays an important role in the detection of targets by radars. This paper presents a new method to predict the bistatic and monostatic RCS of coated electrically large objects. The bodies can be covered by lossy electric and/or magnetic Radar Absorbing Materials (RAMs). These materials can be approximated by the Fresnel reflection coefficients. The pro...

متن کاملMetamaterials for light rays: ray optics without wave-optical analog in the ray-optics limit
Volumes of sub-wavelength electromagnetic elements can act like homogeneous materials: metamaterials. In analogy, sheets of optical elements such as prisms can act ray-optically like homogeneous sheet materials. In this sense, such sheets can be considered to be metamaterials for light rays (METATOYs). METATOYs realize new and unusual transformations of the directions of transmitted light rays....
