    • Abstract:
      The article reports on the development of an optical lattice that deflect matter waves around an object by professor of mechanical engineering Xiang Zhang and his group at the University of California, Berkeley. The author stated that the design shows the possibility of hiding a spherical object within a cloaking shell so that it is invisible to both incident quantum waves and impinging classical particles. He added that the quantum wavelength to the rubidium atoms is set at 5μm.
