INVISIBILITY
TECHNOLOGY
OVERVIEW :
• What is Invisibility?
• Is it possible in reality?
• How does it work in science fiction?
• Interaction of light with objects.
• Can we bend light?
• Metamaterials.
• Transformation optics.
• SSRs (Split Ring Resonators).
• Applications.
• Limitations.
• Conclusion.
INVISIBILITY?
• The inability to be seen is called invisibility.
• Invisibility is the state of an object that cannot be seen. An object in
this state is said to be invisible.
POSSIBLE?
• Yes, it is possible!
•Scientists in Germany have announced that they have
been able to create a cloaking device that can render
a 3D object invisible recently.
•Earlier in Tokyo Prof. Tachi proposed to bulid
something to make objects invisible back in 1977. He
came up with a retro reflective material which causes
the coat to act as screen and give an invisible effect.
•Also in Duke University microwave beam deflection is
being to used to created such an effect.
INVISIBILITY IN SCIENCE FICTION MOVIES.
INTERACTION OF LIGHT WITH OBJECTS.
Absorption
Reflection
Transmission
Yes - Refraction!!!
CAN WE BEND LIGHT?
Refraction law : n1sinθ1=n2sinθ2
n: refractive index n>0
If n1>n2, then θ1<θ2; If n1<n2, then θ1>θ2; But that will not change the
direction of ray.
METAMATERIALS ?
• Meta is a Greek word meaning “Beyond”.
• Metamaterials (MTMs) are artificially engineered composite materials
having extraordinary elecromagnetic properties.
TRANSFORMATION OPTICS
• Transformation optics offers great versatility for controlling
electromagnetic waves to create materials with specially designed
properties
• Transformation optics prescribes the metamaterials.
• Maxwell’s equation are of the same form in any coordinate system
but the precise values of permittivity and permeability will change.
• The idea is quite straightforward: start with a field pattern that obeys
Maxwell’s equations for a system that is topologically similar to the
desired configuration but confined either to free space or a simple
configuration of permittivity and permeability, then distort the system
until the fields are in the desired configuration.
SSRS (SPLIT RING RESONATORS).
•SSRs are pairs of concentric annular rings with
splits in them at opposite ends.
•Made of non-magnetic metal like copper and
have small gaps between them.
•These tiny ring like structures are assembled in
giant crystalline structure.
USE OF METAMATERIAL AS INVISIBILITY
CLOAK
THE INVISIBILITY CLOAK
Metamaterials contain tiny implants which can control the refractive index
at every point in a material.
This would enable light to bend in a path around an object
APPLICATIONS
• Cloaking military devices
Invisible soldiers, airplanes, tanks....
• Diagnosing Disease
Improving medical imaging by cloaking internal organs and tissue
• Computing faster
photonic computer chips replace of electronic computer chips
• Harvesting Energy
A system using negative materials that will harvest light on the
scale of a wavelength
• Magic, art, fashion show
LIMITATIONS
•The Invisibility Effect works only for a specific range
of wavelengths. It operated only over a narrow range
of frequency.
•The cloak could be used to cover the volume of any
shape, but moving the material would spoil the
effect.
•It is not very easy to get negative refractive index.
CONCLUSION
•Is invisibility possible? ----> Yes!
•Is invisibility simple to accomplish? ---> No!
•However, we have already realised the 2D invisibility, we created the
special material--->Metamaterial which has a lot of
applications.
•Further research in the field is going on.
