Crystal bends light back Being able to bend light backwards is extremely useful. This negative refraction is controversial in physics circles and has only been demonstrated using artificial materials containing metal loops. It turns out that a common natural crystal has harbored this capability all along. |

Long Shot It sounds too good to be true: high-quality flat lenses that focus light and can be made in sheets and cut to size. That's the promise of a new class of materials with a negative refractive index that bend light in the opposite direction from conventional materials. |
