Researchers use metamaterials to greatly expand invisibility cloak - Could make jets invisible 04/02/2014 - 00:00 Controlling and bending light around an object so it appears invisible to the naked eye is the theory behind fictional invisibility cloaks.It may seem easy in Hollywood movies, but is hard to create in real life because no material in nature has the properties necessary to bend light in such a way. Scientists have managed to create artificial nanostructures that can do the job, called metamaterials. But the challenge has been making enough of the material to turn science fiction into a practical reality.READ MORE ON UNIVERSITY OF CENTRAL FLORIDA
