Scientists Create Table-Top “Black Hole” Using Metamaterials
New Scientist magazine reports that scientists have created a mini electromagnetic “black hole” of sorts using metamaterials shaped into concentric rings. The team from Purdue University was able to make a shape that traps light by bending it in a way that it is completely absorbed by the cylindrically-shaped material. The metamaterials are finely shaped little blocks that continuously and progressively vary in shape depending on their proximity to the center of the structure. The net effect is that the blocks interact with the light in such a way as to bend it inward towards the center of the rings. The light is in the microwave range, therefore not visible, and it was completely converted to heat. The idea was to mimic the properties of cosmological black holes. One application would be for a new generation of solar energy collecting materials.
It doesn’t seem like a far stretch to imagine that crop circles are doing something similar with their finely-tuned shapes and intricate design structure. Perhaps crop formations also act like black holes of a sort, absorbing frequencies at one level and storing or emitting this energy in different forms. Might this explain some of the weird energies experienced in and around these agroglyphs?
Metamaterials, Bragg Resonance, and Crop Circle Energies-Weirdness Explained?
More support from the world of science that the geometry of crop circles gives them unusual energetic properties. We’re getting close, very close, to something very important here about how crop circles act like energy amplifiers.
A recent article in Science magazine, “Gold Helix Photonic Metamaterial as Broadband Circular Polarizer,” 18 Sept. 2009, brings up the idea of how the geometric shapes of metamaterials creates resonant, macroscopic, energetic effects. Metamaterials are ordinary materials with chiral and other geometric consistencies that give them extraordinary effects on light and other freuquencies. Metamaterials, for example, are used to create cloaking and invisibility.
The authors of the Science article look at how the shape, more specifically the slight chirality of nanoscale gold helixes creates polarized light and mentions the idea of Bragg Resonance: where each individual crystal interacts with the other crystals in a structure to create a broadband, macroscopic effect that is not reducible to each crystal: rather it is the property of the structure as a whole. The authors show that even a small, less than complete twist in gold filaments, when the geometry of the whole substrate is correct, creates optical shifts in a reflecting light source. This effect is scalable to other frequencies.
