This 1-centimeter-tall invisibility device uses metamaterials to bend microwaves around its center so that they reemerge on their original paths on the other side. David Smith of Duke University and his colleagues reported cloaking a tiny copper ring using this device in 2006. Credit: Jack J. Mock, D. Smith Lab/Duke University
