Owing to the difficulty of constructing metamaterials with such extreme ... important to find recipes for self-compensating, or ‘smart’, TO scenarios. In a smart TO device, the boundary ...

Metamaterials can be featured on the walls and windows of smart buildings to control and route electromagnetic waves at will. Nanostructured metasurfaces can shrink bulky optical setups into ...

Metamaterials that mimic the order in matters have opened an exciting gateway to reach unprecedented physical properties and functionality unattainable from naturally existing materials. The "atoms" ...

Until now, designing complex metamaterials with specific mechanical properties required large and costly ... “This work overcomes those challenges,” said Krishnaswamy, director of the Center for Smart ...

Deriving useful functions from structural patterning complexity is a distinction smart materials share with a growing collection of future materials platforms, including metamaterials, 3D printing ...

Can we seamlessly integrate artificial materials into the human body as smart tissues? Metamaterials are a new class of artificial materials with exotic properties, not encountered in nature (the ...

“With traditional acoustic metamaterials, you create one structure and you achieve one property. With this new smart material, we can achieve multiple properties with just one structure,” co ...

(Neurophos Photo) A semi-stealthy startup called Neurophos says it’s raised $7 million in seed funding to support the development of a chip that makes use of metamaterials for heavy-duty AI ...

Meanwhile, the SMART Centre team used a similar method. They glued together two pieces of calcite to form a small wedge measuring 38mm x 10mm x 2mm and is placed over an intended object.
