Abstract
Based on transformation optics theory, we present a new carpet device that can be used to thermally protect a region from the invasion of external heat flux. The designed device is termed 'thermal carpet', which provides considerable cloaking effect. The cloaking performance for heat flux originating from different directions are analyzed. Unlike most thermal cloak designs reported in the literature, the material parameters are constant with position throughout the cloak, indicating that only one type of metamaterial composite to fabricate such a carpet is required.
