  • Abstract
    Using electromagnetic chirality, the authors propose a novel material, Chirosorb, which is invisible to incident electromagnetic energy by virtue of its zero reflectance. To achieve zero reflectivity, certain conditions on constitutive parameters must be met that are difficult to obtain for conventional radar-absorbing materials. Chirosorb has the potential to overcome this difficulty.
