High-efficiency transmissive invisibility cloaking based on all-dielectric multilayer frame structure metasurfaces.

Metasurfaces provide a completely new path to realize the cloaking effect due to their excellent electromagnetic wavefront manipulation. However, most previous metasurfaces realized cloaking by using phase compensation, which is limited by the reflection phase formula and can be used only for reflection mode. We use the generalized Snell's law to propose a free-space transmission stealth device, consisting of multilayer all-dielectric metasurfaces. We utilize three phase gradient all-dielectric silicon metasurfaces that, respectively, play the role of beam splitting, steering, and collection to guide incident waves around the object, thereby forming an ideal stealth area in free space. All-dielectric metasurfaces can greatly reduce transmission loss and enhance efficiency to a large extent. The advantage of choosing an all-dielectric material is that it is easy to process and more suitable in practice. Simulation results of the near field and far field prove that this cloak has a cloaking effect at 1 THz. Our work opens up a new path for transmissive stealth.
