Here’s how they’re making microscopic optical lenses, chip-sized synchrotrons, and so much more. These Liquid-Repelling Materials Defy Nature’s Design, Here’s How - Read More: Researchers defy 19th Century law of Physics in 21st century boost for energy efficiency “Dr. Prat-Camps' breakthrough builds on research he and colleagues have carried out over a number of years focusing on the control and manipulation of magnetic fields by the use of metamaterials.” Metamaterials allow researchers to shrink a synchrotron onto a chip “Now researchers report that a photonic device that relies on metamaterials can bend light and generate terahertz radiation, acting as a minuscule synchrotron on a chip.” What are metamaterials and why do we need them? “Back in the day before cable and satellite, TVs had metal antennas. Those antennas were designed for radio waves that were centimeters to meters in length. We are working to create nanoscale antennas that would be able to respond to visible light with wavelengths of 400 to 700 nanometers, or infrared light, where wavelengths are on the order of a micron.” ____________________ Elements is more than just a science show.
