Transformation electromagnetics is a systematic design technique
for optical and electromagnetic devices that enables novel
wave-material interaction properties. The associated metamaterials
technology for designing and realizing optical and electromagnetic
devices can control the behavior of light and electromagnetic waves
in ways that have not been conventionally possible. The technique
is credited with numerous novel device designs, most notably the
invisibility cloaks, perfect lenses and a host of other remarkable
devices. Transformation Electromagnetics and Metamaterials:
Fundamental Principles and Applications presents a comprehensive
treatment of the rapidly growing area of transformation
electromagnetics and related metamaterial technology with
contributions on the subject provided by a collection of leading
experts from around the world. On the theoretical side, the
following questions will be addressed: "Where does transformation
electromagnetics come from?," "What are the general material
properties for different classes of coordinate transformations?,"
"What are the limitations and challenges of device realizations?,"
and "What theoretical tools are available to make the coordinate
transformation-based designs more amenable to fabrication using
currently available techniques?" The comprehensive theoretical
treatment will be complemented by device designs and/or
realizations in various frequency regimes and applications
including acoustic, radio frequency, terahertz, infrared, and the
visible spectrum. The applications encompass invisibility cloaks,
gradient-index lenses in the microwave and optical regimes,
negative-index superlenses for sub-wavelength resolution focusing,
flat lenses that produce highly collimated beams from an embedded
antenna or optical source, beam concentrators, polarization
rotators and splitters, perfect electromagnetic absorbers, and many
others. This book will serve as the authoritative reference for
students and researchers alike to the fast-evolving and exciting
research area of transformation electromagnetics/optics, its
application to the design of revolutionary new devices, and their
associated metamaterial realizations.
