Distribution of particles which produces a "smart" material
Abstract
If is the scattering amplitude, corresponding to a potential , where is a bounded domain, and is the incident plane wave, then we call the radiation pattern the function , where the unit vector , the incident direction, is fixed, and , the wavenumber, is fixed. It is shown that any function , where is the unit sphere in , can be approximated with any desired accuracy by a radiation pattern: , where is an arbitrary small fixed number. The potential , corresponding to , depends on and , and can be calculated analytically. There is a one-to-one correspondence between the above potential and the density of the number of small acoustically soft particles , , distributed in an a priori given bounded domain . The geometrical shape of a small particle is arbitrary, the boundary of is Lipschitz uniformly with respect to . The wave number and the direction of the incident upon plane wave are fixed.It is shown that a suitable distribution of the above particles in can produce the scattering amplitude , , at a fixed , arbitrarily close in the norm of to an arbitrary given scattering amplitude , corresponding to a real-valued potential .
