Scientists interpret physics behind invisibility cloaks

Scientists interpret physics behind invisibility cloaks from PhysOrg.com
Is a perfect invisible cloak theoretically possible? Are there certain wavelengths—such as those in the visible spectrum—that can’t be made invisible? How will using imperfect materials affect the performance of a cloak? Scientists from Zhejiang University and MIT have recently analyzed the physics behind invisibility cloaks in an attempt to answer some of these questions. [...]
