Abstract
We present electromagnetic invisible cloaks and concentrators which are composed of inhomogeneous and anisotropic metamaterials with a square-shaped outer boundary and a circular-shaped inner boundary. Using the technique of coordinate transformation, closed-form formulations of the permittivity and permeability tensors have been derived for the metamaterials to realize the invisible cloaking and to concentrate electromagnetic waves. Full-wave simulation results are given to validate the non-rotationally invariant cloaks and concentrators.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
