  • Although the first metamaterials were photonic (i.e. artificially fabricated, sub-wavelength, periodic structures, designed to interact with optical frequencies) and acoustic (i.e. artificially fabricated materials designed to control, direct, and manipulate sound), the idea may be extended to the mechanical properties of materials defining mechanical metamaterials as artificially fabricated structures designed to achieve unusual mechanical properties.
