Abstract

Different from the reflective approach of the carpet cloak designed to conceal surface irregularities on highly reflective surfaces, the transmission invisibility cloak, often capable of achieving perfect invisibility, operates within a transmission geometry. In this configuration, the cloaking mechanism ensures that an object neither reflects nor refracts incoming waves in free space, presenting opportunities for more versatile applications, though with the requirement for intricate designs. This paper introduces a novel methodology for designing a transmissive invisibility cloak, employing a simplified combination structure of two phase-gradient metasurfaces based on the generalized Snell’s law. Initially, we designed a highly transparent metasurface for the millimeter-wave band to yield diverse phase gradients. We confirmed the effectiveness of this metasurface through the observation of abnormal refraction. Then, through a deliberate arrangement of these phase gradients, we construct a transmissive invisibility cloak that guides electromagnetic waves around the cloaked region. Simulations and experimental measurements conducted under plane-wave conditions demonstrate the cloak's effectiveness and practical applicability. The ensuing comparative investigations of results among free space, uncloaked objects, and cloaked objects validate the expected cloaking effect, offering valuable insights into the design and functionality of transmissive invisibility cloaks.

Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
