  • A team of MIT researchers developed a new fabrication method that allowed to make existing materials strong but stretchy.

Researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, have developed a new type of metamaterial that could revolutionize the field of optics and pave the way for advanced technologies such as super-resolution imaging and invisibility cloaks. The metamaterial, which is made up of tiny, intricately designed structures, can manipulate light in ways that were previously thought impossible, allowing it to bend around objects or focus light to a point smaller than the wavelength of the light itself. The researchers believe that their discovery could have far-reaching implications for fields such as telecommunications, sensing, and medical imaging, and they are currently working on scaling up the production of the metamaterial to make it more practical for real-world applications.
