Abstract :
A spherical optical black hole is studied using a parallel radially dependent finite-difference time-domain simulation technique. The device requires nondispersive metamaterial structures and is capable of broadband operation, based on transformation optics. Excellent absorption is demonstrated for normal wave incidence.
