چکیده

We analyze the effectiveness of cloaking an infinite cylinder from observations by electromagnetic waves in three dimensions. We show that, as truncated approximations of the ideal permittivity and permeability material parameters tend towards the singular ideal cloaking values, the D and B fields blow up near the cloaking surface. Since the metamaterials used to implement cloaking are based on effective medium theory, the resulting large variation in D and B poses a challenge to the suitability of the field-averaged characterization of epsilon and mu. We also consider cloaking with and without the SHS (soft-and-hard surface) lining. We demonstrate numerically that cloaking is significantly improved by the SHS lining, with both the far field of the scattered wave significantly reduced and the blow up of D and B prevented.

Effectiveness and improvement of cylindrical cloaking with the SHS lining

We analyze, both analytically and numerically, the effectiveness of cloaking an infinite cylinder from observations by electromagnetic waves in three dimensions. We show that, as truncated approximations of the ideal permittivity and permeability tensors tend towards the singular ideal cloaking fields, so that the anisotropy ratio tends to infinity, the D and B fields blow up near the cloaking ...

A New Implementation of Frequency Selective Surface Cloak for Cylindrical Structures

The main purpose of this paper is to design, implement and measure a new sample of mantle cloak. A new method called mantle cloak is introduced by cloaking an object by a single, conformal meta-surface which can drastically suppress the scattering of the desired object. In this paper, a grid lattice is placed around a dielectric object as the cloaking structure. Previously, this FSS has been ut...

Optical cloaking with metamaterials

Artificially structured metamaterials have enabled unprecedented flexibility in manipulating electromagnetic waves and producing new functionalities, including the cloak of invisibility based on coordinate transformation. Unlike other cloaking approaches4–6, which are typically limited to subwavelength objects, the transformation method allows the design of cloaking devices that render a macros...

Well-posedness study and finite element simulation of time-domain cylindrical and elliptical cloaks

The goal of this paper is to prove the well-posedness for the governing equations which are used for cylindrical cloaking simulation. A new time-domain finite element scheme is developed to solve the governing equations. Numerical results demonstrating the cloaking phenomenon with the cylindrical cloak are presented. We finally extend the analysis and simulation to an elliptical cloak model.

Acoustic and electromagnetic cloaking

In this talk, we shall present our recent progress on acoustic and electromagnetic cloaking of obstacles with transformation media. In wave scattering, an obstacle is an object that waves cannot penetrate inside. With artificially designed transformation media, we show that the obstacle can be virtually reshaped under acoustic or electromagnetic wave detection. These cloaking media are shown to...
