Abstract
A method for arbitrarily controlling the phase progression and power flow of electromagnetic fields within a region of space is introduced. Specifically, the method describes how to design a 2D inhomogeneous, anisotropic medium that supports prescribed spatial distributions of the wave vector and Poynting vector direction. Plane-wave relations in anisotropic media are used in conjunction with an impedance matching process to find the required material parameters.
