The blackest fish on Earth can give new data for stealth research


What the scientists want to do with fish, what skin is so black, that its skin would pull almost all light in it. The skin of the "ultra black" fish absorbs 99,5% of light. The thing is that this kind of skin can be a benefit in scuba-diving and other suits, what mission is to make a person invisible to operate at night time. The problem with the most almost entirely black material is that the material is synthetic and stiff. This "ultra black" skin allows making comfortable suits, which absorb the light. 


So the synthetic materials are uncomfortable to use or they are expensive. And the thing is that the entire black skin of the fish would open the road to a new thing, the biological stealth materials, what can use used in the black overalls, what are used by tactical teams another kind of operators. 


The black skin of fish can be produced by using biotechnology. That skin would produce in the Petri dish by using cell cultures, and the nutrient that is used for feeding the cells can be very accurate mixed, that it would control the growth of the skin cells very effectively. 


Modern technology can make a 3D copy of the structure of "ultra black" skin by using synthetic carbon-based materials. The thing is that all electromagnetic radiation behaves the same way, which means that this structure can be used in stealth-research as the model of the new type of materials, which can make every layer invisible for the radar. 


3D printers, which can make extremely small structures can make a copy of the skin of "ultra black" fish by using the carbon-based synthetic material. That allows also copy, not just color, but also the 3D-structure of the layer, which makes that fish so black that it would merge perfectly to the black background. 


But when we are thinking about the skin of the fish, that thing is slight. This means that the structure of that skin can be copy to the outer layers of helicopters and aircraft. When we are thinking about the carbon-based nano-material, what is very black, we can say that the structure of the skin of this "ultra black" fish can be copied to the surfaces by using 3D printing technology. And that thing can make the helicopters and aircraft harder to see.

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low.  The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away.  When the box is filled with quantum gas and som

Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.

"Researchers have created a novel metamaterial that can dynamically tune its shape and properties in real-time, offering unprecedented adaptability for applications in robotics and smart materials. This development bridges the gap between current materials and the adaptability seen in nature, paving the way for the future of adaptive technologies. Credit: UNIST" (ScitechDaily, Metamaterial Magic: Scientists Develop New Material That Can Dynamically Tune Its Shape and Mechanical Properties in Real-Time) Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.  An electro-optical activator can also be an IR state, which means. The metamorphosis in the material can thermally activate.  AI is the ultimate tool for metamaterial research. Metamaterials are nanotechnical- or quantum technical tools that can change their properties, like reflection or state from solid to liquid when the electric or optical effect hits that material. The metamaterial can cru
