Developing Low Profile Carpet Cloaks using ENZ slabs

In this paper, we propose a new method to reduce the height of multi-layered carpet cloaks. In the proposed method, we use Epsilon Near Zero (ENZ) materials as one of layers used in design of carpet cloaks. We analytically prove and numerically verify that using ENZ slabs, can remarkably reduce the height of these cloaks. The proposed carpet cloak is numerically simulated showing a good performance for a wide range of incident angles.
