Abstract
Inspired by transformation optics, negative permeability materials enable the transfer of static magnetic fields to a distant location far away from the current source. This is useful for situations in which it is difficult to place a current source near the region where magnetic fields are required. However, existing artificial negative permeability materials are three dimensional (3D) and bulky. In this study, we theoretically design and experimentally demonstrate a metasurface with static negative permeability that displaces volumetric 3D magnetic fields to a distant region. The design overcomes the existing limitation because the dimensions of the structure are reduced to two, and the control of the magnetic field has an increased degree of freedom. The proposed method can be further extended to tools and strategies to precisely displace and/or manipulate dc or quasistatic magnetic fields in regions of interest for various applications such as medical care and measurement precision.
