The development of metamaterials, ie, artificially structured materials that interact with waves
in unconventional ways, has revolutionized our ability to manipulate the propagation of …

Electromagnetic cloaking has aroused increasing interest in the scientific community,
especially amongst researchers who are developing so-called metamaterials-artificial …

Optical Metamaterials begins with a brief introduction stuffed with ample references; the
remaining chapters extensively cover selected topics: optical properties of metal–dielectric …

We discuss here the use of a graphene monolayer to realize the concept of “cloaking by a
surface”, proposing the thinnest possible mantle cloak with operation in the far-infrared and …

Based on the concept of complementary media, we propose an invisibility cloak operating at
a finite frequency that can cloak an object with a prespecified shape and size within a certain …

We describe the first practical realization of a cylindrical cloak for linear surface liquid waves.
This structured metamaterial bends surface waves radiated by a closely located acoustic …

We derive the elastic properties of a cylindrical cloak for in-plane coupled shear and
pressure waves. The cloak is characterized by a rank 4 elasticity tensor with spatially varying …

Artificial materials, metamaterials and plasmonic media have recently received tremendous
attention from the scientific communities, media and the general public, following novel …

In multistatic imaging one uses waves to probe for information about an unknown medium.
These waves can be acoustic, elastic, or electromagnetic. They can be at zero-frequency …

We describe recent theoretical and experimental progress on making objects invisible to
detection by electromagnetic waves. Ideas for devices that would once have seemed fanciful …
