6.3-nm Chalcogenide Lens Could Enable Flexible Displays, Miniaturization

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
CANBERRA, Australia, March 17, 2016 — A 6.3-nm-thick metamaterial lens comprising 50-nm-thick gold nanobar arrays may be an ideal candidate for flexible displays and miniature cameras, among other applications. The discovery hinged on the remarkable potential of molybdenum disulphide crystals. Yuerui Lu (left) and Jiong Yang with their 6.3-nm-thick lens. Courtesy of Stuart Hay/ANU. "This type of material is the perfect candidate for future flexible displays," said Yuerui Lu, leader of Nano-Electro-Mechanical System Laboratory in the Australian National University (ANU) Research School of Engineering. "We will also be able to...Read full article

    nano
    An SI prefix meaning one billionth (10-9). Nano can also be used to indicate the study of atoms, molecules and other structures and particles on the nanometer scale. Nano-optics (also referred to as nanophotonics), for example, is the study of how light and light-matter interactions behave on the nanometer scale. See nanophotonics.
