The material could someday be used in flexible semiconductors, tear-resistant textiles, bioengineering scaffolds, and more.

Engineers have fabricated a metamaterial that is not only strong but also stretchy. Their new method could enable stretchable ceramics, glass, and metals, for tear-proof textiles or stretchy ...

Exosomes, secreted by most cells, carry biological information and proteins that serve as noninvasive biomarkers for ...

Metamaterials are artificially designed materials that do not occur in nature. They are assembled from individually defined units so that their effective material properties can be enhanced.

Metamaterials are ordered composite materials with electronic, optical, and magnetic properties distinct from those of the component ¿building blocks'. Their unusual properties can often be derived by ...

A new scientific machine learning framework developed by Professors Horacio D. Espinosa, Sridhar Krishnaswamy, and ...

Owing to the wave nature of light there are many ways that such different waves can interact with each other, but also with materials. Everyone knows about reflecting light with a mirror, which is ...

Overall behavior of composite materials and metamaterials. The fundamentals of homogenization for elastic composites, variational principles and energy-based bounds, and dynamic homogenization ...

In metamaterials design, the name of the game has long been “stronger is better.” Metamaterials are synthetic materials with microscopic structures that give the overall material exceptional ...
