Structures and/or materials with engineered functionality, capable of achieving targeted mechanical responses reacting to changes in external excitation, have various potential engineering applications, e.g. aerospace, oceanographic engineering, soft robot, and several others. Yet tunable mechanical performance is normally realized through carefully designing the architecture of structures, which is usually porous, leading to the complexity of the fabrication of the structures even using the recently emerged 3D printing technique. In this study we show that origami technique can provide an alternative solution to achieving the aim by carefully stacking the classical Miura sheets into the Miura-ori tube metamaterial and tuning the geometric parameters of the origami metamaterial. By combining numerical and experimental methods, we have demonstrated that an extremely broad range of natural frequency and dynamic response of the metamaterial can be achieved. The proposed structure can be easily fabricated from a single thin sheet made of one material and simultaneously owns better mechanical properties than the Miura sheet.
With excellent folding-induced deformability and shape reconfigurability, origami-based designs have shown great potentials in developing deployable structures. Noting that origami deployment is essentially a dynamic process, while its dynamical beha
We show that nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond can produce a novel quantum hyperbolic metamaterial. We demonstrate that a hyperbolic dispersion relation in diamond with NV centers can be engineered and dynamically tuned by applying a magnetic
We explore experimentally a quantum metamaterial based on a superconducting chip with 25 frequency-tunable transmon qubits coupled to a common coplanar resonator. The collective bright and dark modes are probed via the microwave response, i.e., by me
In this paper we consider a two-dimensional metamaterial comprising an array of qubits (two level quantum objects). Here we show that a two-dimensional quantum metamaterial may be controlled, e.g. via the application of a magnetic flux, so as to prov
Solar arrays are the primary energy source of the satellite. In this paper, a metamaterial absorber for solar arrays with simultaneous high optical transparency and broadband microwave absorption is presented. By tailoring the reflection response of
