But, they&#39;ve been limited to day dreams lab experiments because producing the light-interfering materials in any practical quantity has been difficult and time consuming. John Rogers, a professor at the University of Illinois has figured out a way to print a layered, nano-scale mesh that bends near-infrared light in much larger amounts than previously possible.</p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;"><strong>Read the <a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/06/13/metamaterial-printing-method-inches-us-closer-to-invisibility-cl/" rel="nofollow ugc noopener" target="_blank">complete entry on Engadget</a></strong></p><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: metamaterial, nano, experiments, cloaks, antenna, laser</div>
