Abstract :
Novel transparent cloaks, i.e. metamaterial-based structures invisible to electromagnetic fields, are proposed, designed and analyzed using the optical transformation. Unlike the widely-studied traditional invisible cloaks, these structures physically cover and shield the devices inside without sacrifice of their electrical performance inside and outside the structures since they are transparent to incoming electromagnetic waves. These transparent cloaks have wide applications in civil and military sectors.
