Wave Shape Transformers Based on Transformation Medium Slabs

Abstract:

We propose wave shape transformers using slab transformation media which can transform planar wave shapes to convex or concave ones. By finite embedded coordinate transformations, a transformation is established from a parabola to a plane and the constitutive parameters of slabs are obtained. Numerical simulations are given to validate the performance of the theoretical design. Using such transformers, Gaussian beam collimation and focusing can be realized.
