A novel and general method for spatially manipulating DC currents has been proposed and experimentally verified by only using bilayer bulk natural conductive materials. Our approach shows distinctive advantages with respect to homogeneity, isotropy, and independence of complicated microfabrication techniques. Our design scheme can be readily extended to robust manipulations of magnetic fields, thermal heat, elastic mechanics, and matter waves.
Keywords: DC bilayer cloaks; DC-current manipulation; cloaking sensors; fan-shaped concentrators; homogeneous and isotropic materials.
