Abstract
En 中文
Dielectric Mie scatterers possessing simultaneously magnetic and electric resonances can be used to tailor scattering utilizing the interference among electromagnetic multipole moments. Cloaking for this type of Mie scatterer is important for various applications. However, the existing cloaking mechanisms mainly focus on the elimination of net electric dipole moments, which have not been generalized to aMie scatterer with both magnetic and electric responses yet. Herein, we propose and experimentally demonstrate an invisible Mie scatterer utilizing a hybrid skin cloak. The hybrid mechanism relies on the realization of a magnetic analog of a plasmonic cloak and the electric anapole condition to eliminate the net magnetic and electric dipole moments simultaneously. Microwave experiments are provided to validate the proposal. Our results not only introduce a new concept of skin cloaking for electromagnetic scatterers, but also provide new insight for the invisibility and illusion of Mie scatterers.
