Free-form and multi-physical metamaterials with forward conformality-assisted tracing
Transformation theory, active control and inverse design have been mainstream in creating free-form metamaterials. However, existing frameworks cannot simultaneously satisfy the requirements of isotropic, passive and forward design. Here we propose a forward conformality-assisted tracing method to address the geometric and single-physical-field constraints of conformal transformation. Using a conformal mesh composed of orthogonal streamlines and isotherms (or isothermal surfaces), this method quasi-analytically produces free-form metamaterials using only isotropic media. The geometric nature of this approach allows for universal regulation of both dissipative thermal fields and non-dissipative electromagnetic fields. We experimentally demonstrate free-form thermal cloaking in both two and three dimensions. Additionally, the multi-physical functionalities of our method, including optical cloaking, bending and thermo-electric transparency, confirm its broad applicability. Our method features improvements in efficiency, accuracy and adaptability over previous approaches. This study provides an effective method for designing complex metamaterials with arbitrary shapes across various physical domains. Here a conformality-assisted tracing method is proposed to devise free-form and three-dimensional conformal metamaterials, featuring accuracy and efficiency in handling complex geometry and adaptability to various diffusion and wave fields.
