Alù's Cloaking Research Garners Media Attention

Prof. Andrea Alù’s research on cloaking a three-dimensional object, making it invisible from all angles, for the first time, has received attention from the BBC News and other major news sources. The idea, outlined in New Journal of Physics, could find first application in high-resolution microscopes.
