All‐Angle Self‐Collimation‐Based Invisibility Cloaking in 2D Square Lattice Photonic Crystals

Abstract: Here, a two-dimensional (2D) hole-type square lattice photonic crystal is shown to achieve invisibility cloaking based on all-angle self-collimation. The proposed structure, which is composed of the high-refraction-index dielectric material PbTe (n PbTe ≈ 6), is applicable in the mid-infrared (mid-IR) frequency range. The cloaking region is capable of hiding any object of any shape and size since the incoming wave does not interact with the cloaked object. The optimization process and the functionality of the … Show more

“…Precise control over sound propagation and phase front manipulation is essential for realizing the cloaking phenomenon. Various techniques, such as phase control utilizing meta-surfaces, phononics, and photonic crystals, have been proposed to pursue this goal [1][2][3][4][5][6]. Moreover, researchers have investigated extraordinary phenomena like negative refraction to advance our understanding of sound wave behavior and potential cloaking mechanisms [7][8][9][10][11].…”

“…From a computational point of view, numerical methods can be divided into roughly two classes: volume‐based methods and surface‐based methods. Almost all the differential equation‐based methods, such as the finite element method (FEM), [ 15 ] the finite‐difference time‐domain method (FDTD), [ 16 ] and the discrete‐dipole approximation (DDA) [ 17 ] belong to the volume‐based method class. Some integral equation‐based methods such as the volumetric method of moments algorithm (V‐MoM) [ 18 ] and the (discontinuous) Galerkin time‐domain [ 19 ] can also be regarded as belonging to the volume‐based method class.…”

“…Because of their intrinsic ability to confine electric fields (EFs) at a subwavelength scale, the resonant modes of photonic structures can sustain large EF enhancements and have brought about fruitful achievements in both fundamental and applied optics [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. A variety of novel optical phenomena-such as Fano resonance [8], plasmon-exciton strong coupling [9], invisibility cloaking [10], giant circular dichroism [11], and large nonlinear response [12]-have been demonstrated using appropriately tailored resonant modes. These investigations have led to a diversity of unprecedented applications, including metalenses [13], single-photon sources [14], integrated quantum circuits [15], nanolasers [16], and biochemical-sensing installations [17], and thus bridge the gap between fundamental optics and the real-world applications.…”
