Realization of Optimized Cylindrical Cloak Using Multi-Layer Ceramic Capacitors

This paper presents the realization of the optimized cylindrical cloak. The unit cell is designed by locating a multi-layer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) between two dielectric substrates. By using two types of MLCC with capacitances of 3.6 pF and 3.9 pF, and loading a dielectric ring instead of the MLCCs to the 8th layer, it confirms that the reflection scattering of the optimized cylindrical cloak using MLCCs can be reduced in comparison with that of the cylindrical cloak using MLCCs based on the parameters of Schurig cloak.
