Catching the Light: Umbrella-Shaped Diamond Nanostructures Make Efficient Photon Collectors

Tuesday, October 20, 2015 - 11:30 in Physics & Chemistry

By tweaking the shape of the diamond nanostructures into the form of tiny umbrellas, researchers from Tokyo Institute of Technology experimentally showed that the fluorescence intensity of their structures was three to five times greater than that of bulk diamond. They report their results in the journal Applied Physics Letters, from AIP Publishing.
