1. INTRODUCTION
The things which our eyes are not
able to see are considered as
Invisible. Light is neither
absorbed nor reflected by the
objects, passing like water flowing
around a rock. As a result, only the
light from behind the objects can
be seen. The devices which are
going to make us hide
are
invisibility devices. Researchers at

parts of the electromagnetic
spectrum, notably for microwaves,
but efforts to do this with visible
light have been limited to flat, twodimensional systems because the
shorter the wavelength, as in
visible light, the smaller the
features of the man made
metamaterial.
The
invisibility
effect
would work only for a
specific
range
of
wavelengths. "There is a
price to be paid if you want
a thin cloak, in that it
operates only over a narrow
range of frequencies,"
Pendry said.
The
tiny
structures
embedded
in
the
metamaterial would have to
be smaller than the
wavelength
of
the
electromagnetic rays you
wanted to bend. That's a
tall order for optical
invisibility, because the
structures would have to be
on the scale of nanometers,
or billionths of a meter. It's
far easier to create radar
invisibility, Pendry said:
"You're
talking
millimeters" that is,
thousandths of a meter.

of invisibility cloaks or shields,
the material would need to

structuring to get this effect for
the first time at these
wavelengths.There could be
more immediate applications
for
the
devices
in
telecommunications.
What's
more, they could be used to
make
better
microscopes,
allowing images of far smaller
objects than conventional
microscopes can see. And a
genuine cloaking effect isn't far
around the corner. "In order to
have the 'Harry Potter' effect,
you just need to find the right
materials for the visible
wavelengths," says Prof Hess,
"and it's absolutely thrilling to
see we're on the right track."
5. APPLICATIONS AND
FUTURE PROSPECTS:
There'd be plenty of
applications in the
civilian world as well ,
even for rudimentary
cloaking devices. For
example, you could
create receptacles to
shield sensitive medical
devices from disruption
by MRI scanners, or
build cloaks to route
cellphone
signals
around obstacles.
Pendry's team proposed
constructing
all-over
cloaking devices, the
other research paper
describes a simpler
method that would
involve shaping the
meta-materials
into
cylindrical
cloaking
devices. The method
could also work to
block sound waves
like the cone of silence
on the "Get Smart" TV
show, but not as
impractical.
