First 3-D nanoscale optical cavities from metamaterials: Hold promise for nanolasers, LEDs, optical sensors

Wednesday, June 27, 2012 - 10:00 in Physics & Chemistry

Researchers have created the world's smallest three-dimensional optical cavities with the potential to generate the world's most intense nanolaser beams. In addition to nanolasers, these unique optical cavities should be applicable to a broad range of other technologies, including LEDs, optical sensing, nonlinear optics, quantum optics and photonic integrated circuits.
