Imagine that you design the perfect cake. Due to the combination of different layers of ingredients, it will have awesome unrealistic properties. A #meta cake!
But: will the structure withstand the temperatures needed during baking?

Instead of a cake, we designed a near-perfect absorber.
Less than 0.1% of the light hitting it can escape it!
How is that possible? By disorder!
Turns out that having the layers of ingredients intermix a bit makes an even better cake!

1st lesson: it's not always worth it to find a fabrication technique that avoids intermixing.
Those techniques are way slower and don't necessarily improve their properties.
A step towards scalable, large-area #metamaterials.

Recuerden que hoy, de 14 a 17, tenemos #DFAbierto . Todo empieza con una breve charla en el Aula 8 y sigue con la sesión de posters a cargo de los grupos de investigación del Departamento de Física. Les dejo mi poster, para los que no puedan asistir.
La síntesis de nuevos materiales a partir del apilamiento de capas 2D monoatómicas es un tema interdisciplinario en la frontera de las investigaciones que buscan alternativas para las comunicaciones basadas en la electrónica.
Como ejemplo, vean este artículo publicado anteayer en la revista Science, donde se reporta 1 nuevo método que permite unir miles de moléculas orgánicas en 1 película plana lisa de solo unos pocos nanómetros de espesor.
