Potential Due to a Polarized Object01:29

Potential Due to a Polarized Object

560
A neutral atom consists of a positively charged nucleus surrounded by a negatively charged electron cloud. When placed in an external electric field, the external electric force pulls the electrons and nucleus apart, opposite to the intrinsic attraction between the nucleus and the electrons. The opposing forces balance each other with a slight shift between the center of masses of the nucleus and the electron cloud, resulting in a polarized atom. On the other hand, a few molecules, like water,...

Dielectric Polarization in a Capacitor01:31

Dielectric Polarization in a Capacitor

5.4K
The presence of a dielectric medium in a capacitor not only changes the voltage and capacitance but also affects the electric field. In general, dielectrics can be of two types: polar and nonpolar. In a polar dielectric, the positive and negative charges in the molecules are separated by a distance and hence have a permanent dipole moment. In contrast, no such charge separation exists in a nonpolar dielectric, however the nonpolar molecules get polarized in the presence of an external electric...

Group Polarization01:01

Group Polarization

37.2K
Group polarization is the strengthening of an original group attitude following the discussion of views within a group (Teger & Pruitt, 1967). That is, if a group initially favors a viewpoint, after discussion the group consensus is likely a stronger endorsement of the viewpoint. Conversely, if the group was initially opposed to a viewpoint, group discussion would likely lead to stronger opposition.

Plane Electromagnetic Waves I01:30

Plane Electromagnetic Waves I

4.5K
The existence of combined electric and magnetic fields that propagate through space as electromagnetic (EM) waves is the most significant prediction of Maxwell's equations. As Maxwell's equations hold in free space, the predicted electromagnetic waves do not require a medium for their propagation. An EM wave comprises an electric field, defined as the force per charge on a stationary charge, and a magnetic field, which is the force per charge on a moving charge.
The EM field is assumed to be a...

¹³C NMR: Distortionless Enhancement by Polarization Transfer (DEPT)01:20

¹³C NMR: Distortionless Enhancement by Polarization Transfer (DEPT)

1.3K
When proton-coupled carbon-13 spectra are simplified by a broadband proton decoupling technique, structural information about the coupled protons is lost. Distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer (DEPT) is a technique that provides information on the number of hydrogens attached to each carbon in a molecule. While the DEPT experiment utilizes complex pulse sequences, the pulse delay and flip angle are specifically manipulated. The resulting signals have different phases depending on...

Potential Due to a Magnetized Object01:24

Potential Due to a Magnetized Object

630
Magnetic dipoles in magnetic materials are aligned when placed under an external magnetic field. For paramagnets and ferromagnets, dipole alignment occurs in the direction of the magnetic field. However, the dipoles align opposite to the field in the case of diamagnets. This state of magnetic polarization due to the external field is called magnetization. Magnetization is defined as the dipole moment per unit volume. It plays a similar role to polarization in electrostatics.
The vector...

  • Metamaterials and Nanophotonics
  • Electromagnetics and Optics
  • Applied Physics

Background:

  • Full-polarization (σ) invisibility on arbitrary 3D platforms remains a significant challenge for stealth technology.
  • Existing invisibility cloaks are limited to specific polarization states due to material anisotropy and orientation-selective resonance.

Main Results:

  • Demonstrated effective restoration of amplitude and phase for reflected beams under full polarization states.
  • Achieved a desirable operational bandwidth of approximately 17.9% for the metasurface cloaks.
  • Showcased the ability to cloak arbitrary objects with ultrathin, 3D arbitrary shapes.

Conclusions:

  • The developed deterministic approach enables robust and accurate design of full-polarization invisibility cloaks.
  • This work reconciles a key challenge in stealth technology, paving the way for practical 3D cloaking applications.
  • The metasurface cloak offers extreme capability for ultrathin, arbitrary-shaped object cloaking.
