    Abstract: An elastic wave cloaking lattice-based metamaterial for cloaking an object within a void includes a lattice of connected unit cells arranged to form a void, each unit cell comprising a mass and a plurality of connecting springs, the mass coupled by the plurality of connecting springs to masses in adjacent unit cells, the plurality of connecting springs comprising at least two large springs of a first length and at least two short springs of a second length, the first length greater than the second length, the springs and masses having relational and mechanical characteristics to facilitate elastic wave cloaking in the totality of the lattice. The lattice as a whole has metamaterial properties resulting from the positional relationship and mechanical properties of masses and connecting springs of the unit cells such that the lattice at least partially cloaks an object or material portioned within the void from elastic waves.

    Abstract: A dynamic dada sampling system and method is disclosed for in vivo small animal fluorescence molecular imaging and dual-modality molecular imaging. The system comprises a computer, a rotation stage for animal suspension driven by a motor, and a fluorescence excitation-detection apparatus. The fluorescence excitation-detection apparatus comprises a fluorescence excitation module and a fluorescence detection module. The CCD device of the fluorescence detection module is connected to a computer through an interface controller. The motor is connected to a computer through RS232 interface. The process of dynamic data acquisition is as follows: a fluorescent probe is injected into a small animal in order to target specific cells or tissues; a small animal is vertically hung on a rotation stage after anesthesia; the fluorescence imaging detection module acquires the emitting light continuously. The present invention can provide 360 degree imaging quickly, efficiently, and non-invasively.
