But in a new study, researchers have fabricated a carpet cloak that can make objects undetectable in the full visible spectrum.

但是最近一项研究表明，科学家已经成功制成了在全可见光波段将物体隐藏起来的隐身斗篷。

Researchers have demonstrated for the first time they were able to cloak three-dimensional objects using artificially engineered materials that redirect light around the objects.

研究者已经第一次证明他们能够使用能够改变物体周围光线方向的人造工程材料来伪装三维立体物体。

Described in Physical Review Letters, the approach borrows many ideas from attempts to "cloak" objects from light.

"By using natural crystals for the first time, rather than artificial metamaterials, we have been able to scale up the size of the cloak and can hide larger objects, thousands of times bigger than the wavelength of the light, " said Shuang Zhang, the University of Birmingham physicist who led the research.
