Wireless power transfer, defined as the transmission of electromagnetic energy without the need of physical connectors, requires reliable and stable solutions for charging high-power devices such as electric vehicles while causing no danger to humans, animals, plants, and so on. We address this challenging problem and propose a unique technique based on the use of metamaterials with extreme parameters to enable targeted and protected wireless power transfer. We design epsilon-and-mu-near-zero (EMNZ) metasurfaces that transfer energy if and only if both the transmitter and receiver are equipped with them. This technology will be used in targeted wireless power transfer systems, particularly when high power is required, such as electric vehicles.
