Abstract

In this chapter, we use analogies between the governing equations for linear surface liquid waves (LSWs) and surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) in order to control their trajectories using geometric transforms. These two routes towards cloaking are emerging areas of physics known as transformational acoustics and plasmonics. We first analyze cloaking of LSWs propagating through a circular cloak, which consists of concentric layers cut into a large number of small sectors with rigid pillars. This water wave cloak behaves as an effective anisotropic fluid. We experimentally observe the decreased backscattering around the frequency 10 Hertz of a fluid with low viscosity and finite density (Methoxynonafluorobutane) from a cylindrical rigid obstacle surrounded by the cloak when it is located a couple of wavelengths away from the acoustic source. We then study theoretically, and numerically, the cloaking of SPPs propagating on a structured metal surface, and we manufacture and experimentally validate a plasmonic carpet working in the visible spectrum using dielectric plots of TiO2 arranged along a quasi-conformal grid on a metal plate.
