It has long been considered common sense that a single device performs only one function. Just as tuning a radio to a ...

To overcome the lack of wavelength-selective extraction in existing on-chip metasurfaces, Chinese scientists developed a novel approach by leveraging a nonlocal on-chip design based on symmetry-broken ...

Chiral metasurfaces can strongly twist the polarization of light, but how this process unfolds in space and time has been unclear. Scientists in China have now used ultrafast electron microscopy and ...

Currently, Kyocera’s technology enables aerial images whose focal positions vary by wavelength. In the future, increasing the ...

For quantum computers to outperform their classical counterparts, they need more quantum bits, or qubits. State-of-the-art quantum computers have around 1,000 qubits. Columbia physicists Sebastian ...

US researchers say they have built a laser system precise and powerful enough to control vast grids of atoms, a step they ...

The Stanford team created a metasurface from a polymer previously used in solar panels and printable electronics. They found ...

Researchers at Harvard University, working with collaborators at the University of Lisbon, discovered that low-index silica ...

Capasso himelf called the discovery “a counterintuitive breakthrough in nanotechnology.” He added, “We have demonstrated in ...

Precision alignment in semiconductor lithography demands nanometer-scale accuracy, as even minor misalignments between the mask and wafer can ...
