Broadening the Bandwidth of Metamaterial Cloaks with Non-Foster
Metasurfaces
   [PDF]

Pai-Yen Chen, Christos Argyropoulos, Andrea Alu
We introduce the concept and practical design of broadband, ultrathin cloaks based on non-Foster, negatively capacitive metasurfaces. By using properly tailored, active frequency-selective screens conformal to an object, within the realm of practical realization, is shown to enable drastically reduced scattering over a wide frequency range in the microwave regime, orders of magnitude broader than any available passive cloaking technology. The proposed active cloak may impact not only invisibility and camouflaging, but also practical antenna and sensing applications.
