Pendry showed how metamaterials could create perfect lenses with unlimited resolution, as well as bend light to create an «invisibility cloak» that hides objects from detection. (kavliprize.org)
Better understanding of this dynamic will speed the development of new metamaterials such as perfect lenses and invisibility cloaks, says Michigan Tech's Elena Semouchkina. (sciencedaily.com)
«Light scattering may seem detrimental to imaging, but in fact a scattering system can make an almost perfect lens.» (newscientist.com)
