What Are Metamaterials That Expand Possibilities with Behavior Not Found in Substances in the Natural World?

Metamaterials are artificial substances that behave in ways not found in substances in the natural world. They control the reflection, transmission, and other properties of electromagnetic waves (light and radio waves), sound waves, and similar. We introduce here the types, usage examples, and prospects of metamaterials. We also look at the Ultrasound Transmission Metamaterial developed by Murata Manufacturing.

“Ultrasound Transmission Metamaterial” that Expands the Range of Places where Ultrasonic Sensors Can Be Used to Include Medicine and Automobiles

Murata Manufacturing has developed a new “ultrasound transmission metamaterial” technology with the potential to expand the range of places where ultrasonic sensors can be used. Previous ultrasonic sensors were unable to measure target objects located on the other side of a barrier made of a material such as metal or resin. The new ultrasonic metamaterial eliminates these limitations on measurement and has the potential to spur innovation in a variety of areas such as medical, automotive, and social infrastructure.
