Explore how metamaterials are revolutionizing architecture with acoustic invisibility, earthquake resilience, and energy harvesting solutions.

The engineers' creation is considered a "metamaterial," or a synthetic material whose microscopic structures lend it unusual properties.

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 ...

Rather than printing microscopic struts and trusses, similar to those of conventional lattice-based metamaterials, he and his team made an architecture of interwoven springs, or coils. They found that ...

A metamaterial, in case you're wondering, is a substance with multiple microscopic structures. Typically, these structures combine to enable properties that are usually compatible, including ...

Metamaterials are synthetic materials with microscopic structures that give the overall material exceptional properties. Credit: MIT MIT engineers have developed a new metamaterial that is both strong ...

A new multifunctional metamaterial with adaptable electromagnetic properties offers innovative solutions for stealth technology, improved signal clarity, and enhanced medical imaging.

A new metamaterial is not only more transparent to light, but adds privacy, cools the room inside, and automatically cleans itself.

New Titanium “Metamaterial” Has Supernatural Strength The new material is 50 percent stronger than the next strongest material of a similar density.
