Metamaterials Could Lead to the Development of Far Fetched Electronics
Metamaterials offer a real possibility that our most far-fetched fancies could one day become real as rocks. From invisibility cloaks and perfect lenses to powerful batteries, their super-power applications seem to be never-ending. So far these applications haven’t been developed, even though scientists have been studying these metamaterials for more than 15 years.
