From: First experimental demonstration of an isotropic electromagnetic cloak with strict conformal mapping
Carpet-type cloak.
(a) Simulated reflection from a flat mirror, (b)/(c) simulated wave scattering for our carpet device with a continuous/discrete index profile, (d) a photo of the carpet device and (e)/(f) measured/simulated pattern of scattered field. The black solid lines with arrows in these figures display the wave propagation directions and the dashed lines are the extensions of these directions respectively for the incident and reflected beams in the regions outside the device. Wave beam is illuminated from the top-left side at 5.5 GHz, as indicated by the red arrow in (d) which has a 45° angle deviation from the normal of the yellow branch cut in Fig. 1a. Similar cloaking effect is observed at frequencies below 6 GHz.
