Re:Doesn't work (Score 1)

I agree with you on the soldiers front. However, it wouldn't be too difficult to work in a similar way to current stealth technology on aircraft (once thay have made the materials!) and only working over a small wavelength range (at which radar operates). This technology is most likely to be used for RF shielding and applications other than invisibility. The invisibility aspect of these materials is very much a 'get the general public interested' tactic to help get research grants.At the present moment the idea of using this tech for making humans invisible is a long way off. Current samples of nanophotonic materials are generally very small due to the difficulty in manufacturing them.
