A mass-independent conformal quantum cloak

An obstacle to constructing a quantum cloak with the transformation design method for steering a matter wave is the device involving the anisotropic modulation of the particle mass. It is the purpose of this paper to show that a narrow-acceptance-angle quantum cloak generated by a kind of conformal mapping could bemass-independent. This greatly simplifies the construction of the device since it can now be finished only by applying a potential field to a region of the shell. As demonstrations of the conclusion, an elliptical and a parabolic conformal quantum cloak are designed from the elliptical and parabolic coordinate systems. Their performance is inspected by probability currents. It is shown that the conformal devices can serve as novel splitters for a 2D matter wave. Finally, we discuss the difficulty of constructing a steering device from the hyperbolic coordinate system.
