Sandwich-style construction: Toward ultra-low-energy exciton electronics

A new 'sandwich-style' fabrication process placing a semiconductor only one atom thin between two mirrors has allowed Australian researchers to make a significant step towards ultra-low energy electronics based on the light-matter hybrid particles exciton-polaritons. The breakthrough evidence of robust, dissipationless propagation of exciton-polaritons, coupled excitons in atomically-thin material to light, demonstrating for the first time long-range propagation without lost dissipation of energy, at room temperature.

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...
