Functional metasurfaces and metadevices

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project aims to develop and use smart metadevices for light control, high-bandwidth wireless communication and security. Unique properties of metamaterials suggest several useful effects not yet used in real-life. Using electromagnetism, mechanics, colloidal chemistry and nanofabrication, this project will design user-friendly tuneable metadevices made of ultra-thin metasurfaces and three-dimensional liquid metamaterials, and demonstrate electromagnetic wave manipulation in microwave, terahertz and optical frequency ranges. The outcomes are expected to create opportunities for Australian industry to commercialise smart materials.
