Metamaterials pave way for superlens
CORNELL (US) — Scientists have developed a technique that could allow metamaterials, known for unusual optical properties, to self-assemble in 3-D. The man-made metamaterials could lead to “superlenses” for imaging proteins, viruses, and DNA—and perhaps even a “Star Trek” cloaking device. ...
