In January, a team led by Jim Schuck, professor of mechanical engineering at Columbia Engineering, developed a method for creating entangled photon pairs, a critical component of emerging quantum ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) With atomic-scale thickness, the physical and electronic properties of 2D materials can be easily altered by imposing artificially designed defects, surface modification, or ...

Optical tweezers and high density optical storage are just two of the applications that could benefit from compact photonic crystal lasers capable of producing diverse beam patterns on demand.
