We report experimental and theoretical investigations of coherent perfect channeling (CPC), a process that two incoming coherent waves in waveguides are completely channeled into one or two other waveguides with little energy dissipation via strong coherent interaction between the two waves mediated by a deep subwavelength dimension scatterer at the common junction of the waveguides. Two such scatterers for acoustic waves are discovered, one confirmed by experiments and the other predicted by theory, and their scattering matrices are formulated. Scatterers with other CPC scattering matrices are explored, and preliminary investigations of their properties are conducted. The scattering matrix formulism makes it possible to extend the applicable domain of CPC to other scalar waves, such as electromagnetic waves and quantum wavefunctions.
We report the experimental realization of acoustic coherent perfect absorption (CPA) of four symmetric scatterers of very different structures. The only conditions necessary for these scatterers to exhibit CPA are that both the reflection and transmi
We examine several ways to manipulate the loss in electromagnetic cloaks, based on transformation electromagnetics. It is found that, by utilizing inherent electric and magnetic losses of metamaterials, perfect wave absorption can be achieved based o
This paper presents an exact solution for a perfect conversion of a TM-polarized surface wave (SW) into a TM-polarized leaky-wave (LW) using a reciprocal and lossless penetrable metasurface (MTS) characterized by a scalar sheet impedance, located on
We show that there exists an exact solution for a lossless and reciprocal periodic surface impedance which ensures full conversion of a single-mode surface wave propagating along the impedance boundary to a single plane wave propagating along a desir
The propagation of a superintense laser pulse in an underdense, inhomogeneous plasma has been studied numerically by two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations on a time scale extending up to several picoseconds. The effects of the ion dynamics fol
