Abstract
The bianisotropic susceptibility Generalized Sheet Transition Conditions (GSTCs) synthesis method is extended from planar to spherical metasurfaces. Properties specific to the non-zero intrinsic curvature of the spherical shape are highlighted and different types of corresponding transformations are described. Finally, the susceptibility-GSTC method and exotic properties of spherical metasurfaces are validated and illustrated with three examples: illusion transformation, ring focusing and birefringence.
