Tutorials

  1. How to use the "Rochester Cloak" for a Science Lab.

    The 2015 AAPT BFY 2 (College Park, MD) presentation (citation information in Presentation section) can be used for a lab course, ranging from beginning level to advanced level, depending on how much students are asked to do and how good of a background image they should obtain. The presentation includes:

    1. Invisibility cloaking background
    2. Tutorial: Geometric optics, ABCD matrix
    3. Problem sets for students: ABCD matrix and paraxial cloaking
    4. Paraxial cloaking theory and experiments
    5. Possible research ideas
    6. Lab suggestions, demonstration guidelines
    7. Specifications for lenses to order and thick lens calculations.
