Abstract
An ultrabroadband invisibility cloak is designed using a genetic algorithm (GA) for a cylindrical target with an infinite length. The cloaking band is 0.4 to 0.7µm, covering almost the entire visible light range. The invisibility cloaking medium consists of concentric multilayered cylindrical metamaterials (CM). When the cloaking target is covered with a well-designed 26+ layer CM, the average scattering cross-section is 6% or less of the uncloaked target’s cross-section. The cloaking performance of the structure designed by the GA was superior to that designed by analytical calculations based on a combination of the transformation optics and the effective medium approximation. The cloaking is confirmed through the time variation of the magnetic fields calculated using the finite-difference time-domain method. In addition, the mechanism of the cloaking is discussed.
