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 کاملMacroscopic 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 کاملA completely covariant approach to transformation optics
We show that the Plebanski based approach to transformation optics overlooks some subtleties in the electrodynamics of moving dielectrics that restricts its applicability to a certain class of transformations. An alternative, completely covariant, approach is developed that is more generally applicable and provides a clearer picture of transformation optics.
متن کاملGeneralized transformation optics from triple spacetime metamaterials
In this paper various extensions of the design strategy of transformation media are proposed. We show that it is possible to assign different transformed spaces to the field strength tensor (electric field and magnetic induction) and to the excitation tensor (displacement field and magnetic field), resp. In this way, several limitations of standard transformation media can be overcome. In parti...
متن کاملNonlinear optics at the nanoscale
Development of nanotechnologies and interest for metamaterials has put a renewed interest on the subject of nonlinear optical properties of patterned metallic structures. Structures made of metal sub-wavelength objects like nanorods , or nano horseshoe shaped resonators and nanowires periodically arranged in dielectric matrices have been realized and linearly characterized. The same way, the li...
