WASHINGTON - A cloak of invisibility may be common in science fiction but it is not so easy in the real world. New research suggests such a device may be moving closer to reality. Scientists said on ...

Taking a page from movies and comic books, researchers at Duke University have developed what they call an "invisibility cloak," a primitive device that hides objects by bending electromagnetic waves ...

The theorists who first created the mathematics that describe the behavior of the recently announced “invisibility cloak” have revealed a new analysis that may extend the current cloak’s powers, ...

An AI-designed invisibility cloak should be able to hide objects from infrared light or microwaves and be made from readily available materials. The device, which is currently being built, could ...

This illustration shows the structure of a new device created by Purdue University researchers to overcome a fundamental obstacle in using new metamaterials for radical advances in optical ...

Researchers at the University of Rochester are reporting that they've built the first invisibility cloak that works in three dimensions, viewed from a range of angles, across the full spectral range ...

University of Utah mathematicians developed a new cloaking method, and it’s unlikely to lead to invisibility cloaks like those used by Harry Potter or Romulan spaceships in “Star Trek.” Instead, the ...
