Abstract :
This paper introduces a design methodology for low-loss optical cloaks that is based on arrays of chalcogenide glass resonators. We employ full-wave electromagnetic simulations to investigate resonance modes of DRs, examine experimentally measured material parameters of available chalcogenide glass, and design resonator configurations and their arrangenment in the cloak for operation in the near-infrared range. Coupling effects in these DR arrays are considered and taken into account.
