The elaborate set-up was created using metamaterials ... is about two or three years away from manufacturing actual cloaking devices. U.C. Berkeley's Zhang engineers a "carpet cloak" from ...

These inherent constraints in the optical properties of natural materials have driven the development of artificially engineered metamaterials ... or developing cloaking devices that render ...

Metamaterials are a novel class of functional materials ... Optical camouflage (such as an invisibility cloaking device) is a technology to make an object seem invisible by causing incident light to ...

The Shalaev group has further extended the possible applications of optical metamaterials by showing the feasibility of cloaking objects in the visible ... expected to result in a family of new ...

Many cloaking devices have been theorized over the years. Much investigation has been done into advanced metamaterials that are able to interact with varying wavelengths of light, and through some ...

Specific topics include sub-wavelength waveguiding and focusing, super-resolution imaging and nano-lithography beyond the diffraction limit of the light, negative refraction, and invisibility cloaking ...

3D phononic crystals find applications in acoustic cloaking ... The concept of metamaterials has greatly expanded the possibilities for wave manipulation in phononic crystals, enabling the realization ...

Smith, David Schurig, and Steve Cummer discuss their work in "cloaking" an object by bending microwaves around it. Their device consists of 10 concentric rings of a copper-and-fiberglass metamaterial.
