Would graphene nanotubes be considered a metamaterial?
- smaddox 5y agoIsolated carbon nanotubes, probably not. But certain arrangements of a large number of carbon nanotubes, almost certainly. Vantablack should almost certainly be described as a metameterial.
- kragen 5y agoPeople usually don't call things like Vantablack metamaterials because they're too disordered. Also that would commit them to calling ordinary lampblack a metamaterial, and lampblack isn't cool.
