Results: Researchers have developed a stamp-based printing method for generating large sheets of meta-materials, a new class of materials that interact with light in ways not seen in nature. They've used it to make sheets of a metamate-rial that measure nearly nine centimeters per side, orders of magnitude larger than was previously possible. Tests showed that this material, which bends light backward, actually has better optical properties than materials made using more complex methods.
