Atomically Thin Surface Cloak Using Graphene Monolayers

Abstract: The graphene surface is typically biased using either a perpendicular static electric filed or a static magnetic field via the Hall effects. In the first case, the surface impedance of graphene is isotropic and described by a scalar. In the second case, one should consider a tensor of anisotropic surface impedance.In this paper, we have limited our discussion to the scalar scenario, and we discuss here in more detail its electrically-controlled tunability properties in a non-magnetic environment.

“…[2][3][4][5] Hence, one can tailor the local conductivity by a bias voltage, and it might provide exciting venues to achieve wave-guiding in simple graphene flakes without additional nanostructures, which have been suggested to perform transformation optics and cloaking on a one-atom-thick surface. 6,7 Engineering plasmonic nanostructures in graphene, such as disks and ribbons, enables rich functionalities to be obtained, such as modulating the emitter radiation, 8 enhancing the light matter interaction, and realizing plasmon wave-guiding. 9,10 These kinds of structures have also been demonstrated theoretically to achieve a very high optical absorption.…”

“…Here, e is the charge of an electron, k B the Boltzmann constant, T the temperature in K, and µ c the chemical potential which we assume to take the values between 0.1-0.5 eV [33]. These expressions show that the interband contribution plays the leading role around the absorption threshold, ω ≈ 2µ, while the intraband contribution is important at relatively low frequencies, ω < 2µ.…”

“…A new fresh impetus to the progress in this field has been given by the concept of metamaterials 1 , allowing to design a cloaking structure that surrounds an object making it invisible to an outside observer. Different approaches to achieve invisibility cloaking have been proposed including multilayered shells that may make even plasmonic particle invisible 2 being also tuned by graphene 3 or nonlinear layers imbedded into multi-shell structures 4 , or magneto-optical shell activated by an external magnetic field 5 . It was recognized that the invisibility cloaking become possible as a product of the powerful concepts of the so-called transformation optics [6][7][8][9] , and it was studied for a variety of applications including radar detection, sensors and detectors [10][11][12] .…”
