Abstract
Transformation optics has demonstrated its ability to design various novel devices, for example, to change objects' sizes, positions or even shapes. This time we come to another magical manipulation: to change the numbers of sources. In this paper, we will design a new class of gradient index lenses from multivalued optical conformal mapping. We shall call them the conformal lenses. Such lenses can make one active source appear omnidirectionally as two (or many) in-phase sources, each interfering with others. As a self-interference phenomenon, this has not been discussed before. Meanwhile, they can transform multiple in-phase sources into one. Other intriguing illusion effects are also demonstrated. Based on the Riemann sheet analysis, the physics mechanism of such effects are well explained. Finally, we apply transmutation methods to design lenses without any singular material parameters.
Abstract (in Czech)
V článku na základě transformační optiky navrhujeme zařízení, které vytváří optickou iluzi, že počet světelných zdrojů je jiný než ve skutečnosti. Zdánlivé zdroje interferují a tak vznikají zajímavé efekty. Návrh je založen na konkrétní víceznačné funkci komplexní proměnné. Metodu lze aplikovat i naopak a z více skutečných zdrojů zdánlivě vytvořit jeden. Fyzikální mechanismus funkce zařízení vysvětlujeme pomocí vlastností Riemannových listů a ukazujeme, jak odstranit singularity indexu lomu vhodnou optickou transmutací.
