The technology for atomic level invisibility might be closer than you'd think
MosNews
and NewsRU are reporting that Russian professor Oleg Gadomsky has
patented a new
method of optical camouflage. The professor, versed in both
quantum and optical electronics, uses gold nanoparticles arranged in a
stratum that cloaks the image of an object to the other side of the
stratum. The patent, unfortunately, does not show a scale
demonstration of this technology or even if the technology works
yet.
Gadomsky's technology is completely different than existing methods of
optical camouflage that exist today. In 2003, the TACHI
laboratory of the University of Tokyo
demonstrated an "invisibility
cloak" -- which was actually no more than a projection of the image
behind the cloak projected back onto the cloak. Gadomsky plans to
actually disrupt the radiation in such a manner to "bend" light around
the stealthed object behind the nanoparticle wall.
