Unlike traditional lenses, metalenses are flat and made of silicon with intricate patterns etched into them. These patterns allow precise control of light, enabling new possibilities in imaging and sensing.
Metalenses can see through glare, haze, and even black ice, and can also be used for identity verification, detecting artificial faces, and recognizing cancerous skin growths.
The manufacturing process for metalenses is similar to that of computer chips, making them smaller, cheaper, and easier to mass produce. As metamaterials become more widely available, they are set to revolutionize mobile devices, cars, and medical technology, transforming how we observe and interact with the world.
