In summary, the speaker is taking an optics course and has to do a bibliographic research on a topic of their choice. They are looking for ideas with a focus on modern scientific research. They mention reading about invisible cloaks and a recent development by a Greek scientist, but they are not well-versed in optics.

I have taken for this semester an optics course and my teacher will ask us to do a bibliographic research on an optic's subject of our selection.
I was interested in finding good topics maybe with a research attention from the modern scientific world. Any ideas?

I have read some articles on invisible cloaks and the creation of a prototype in November from a Greek scientist but I am not really into optics and I don't know what's going on right now in this field.
