Intelligent nanomaterials for photonics

2D materials - combined with optical fibers - can enable novel applications in the areas of sensors, non-linear optics, and quantum technologies. However, combining these two components has so far been very laborious. Typically, the atomically thin layers had to be produced separately before being transferred by hand onto optical fibers. Researchers have now succeeded for the first time in growing 2D materials directly on optical fibers. This approach facilitates manufacturing of such hybrids.

Researchers develop recyclable, healable electronics

Electronics often get thrown away after use because recycling them requires extensive work for little payoff. Researchers have now found a w...
