We study the approximate cloaking via transformation optics for electromagnetic waves in the time harmonic regime in which the cloaking device {\it only} consists of a layer constructed by the mapping technique. Due to the fact that…
Acoustic invisibility of a cloaking system in turbulent uids has been poorly understood. Here we show that evident scattering would appear in turbulent wakes owing to the submergence of a classical cloaking device. The inherent mechanism is…
An active interior cloak is composed of a conformal array of radiating sources surrounding a target object. With proper configuration, this array radiates a field discontinuity which cancels out any scattering which occurs when the object…
