One of the leading candidates proposed for enhancing efficiency has been called a technology metamaterials.""We performed a comprehensive analysis using computer models of wireless power systems
and found that MRFE could ultimately be five times more efficient than use of metamaterials and 50 times more efficient than transmitting through air alone,
"The researchers conducted an experiment that transmitted power through air alone, through a metamaterial, and through an MRFE made of the same quality material as the metamaterial.
The MRFE significantly outperformed both of the others. In addition, the MRFE is less than one-tenth the volume of metamaterial enhancers."
"This could help advance efforts to develop wireless power transfer technologies for use with electric vehicles, in buildings,
a quality found normally in metals and new"metamaterials, "which contain features, patterns or elements that enable unprecedented control of light by harnessing clouds of electrons called surface plasmons.
Unlike natural materials, metamaterials are able to reduce the index of refraction to less than one or less than zero.
"The AZO also makes it possible to"tune"the optical properties of metamaterials, an advance that could hasten their commercialization,
#Two-dimensional metamaterial surface manipulates light A single layer of metallic nanostructures has been designed, fabricated and tested by a team of Penn State electrical engineers that can provide exceptional capabilities for manipulating light.
Similar design strategies have great potential for use in a wide variety of human-made systems, from biomedical devices to microelectromechanical components, photonics and optoelectronics, metamaterials, electronics, energy storage
#Scientists'bend'elastic waves with new metamaterials that could have commercial applications"Methods of controlling
The researchers created a scaled-down template of the athletic logo and drilled out tiny perforations on the top layer of the metamaterial structure.
##Single-photon emission enhancement#seen as step toward quantum technologies Researchers have demonstrated a new way to enhance the emission of single photons by using yperbolic metamaterials,
the new metamaterial is compatible with the complementary metalxideemiconductor manufacturing process used to construct integrated circuits.
The metamaterial is said to be hyperbolic, meaning it possesses unique properties leading to the increased output of light.
In new findings the researchers have demonstrated how attaching nanodiamonds containing itrogen-vacancy centersto the new metamaterial further enhances the production of single photons, workhorses of quantum information processing,
cryptography and communications technologies. hese results indicate that the brightness of the nanodiamond-based single-photon emitter could be enhanced substantially by placing such an emitter on the surface of the hyperbolic metamaterial,
Placing a nanodiamond containing an NV center on the surface of hyperbolic metamaterials not only enhances the emission of photons,
Metamaterials have engineered surfaces that contain features, patterns or elements, such as tiny antennas or alternating layers of nitrides that enable unprecedented control of light.
Future research may include work to improve the system with devices that combine the hyperbolic metamaterial with nanoantennas
Capasso team designed a faster-than-light running wave of charge along a one-dimensional metamaterial like a powerboat speeding across a lake.
The metamaterial, a nanostructure of rotated slits etched into a gold film, changes the phase of the surface plasmons generated at each slit relative to each other,
The team discovered that the angle of incidence of the light shining onto the metamaterial provides an additional measure of control
