Integrated Platform for Visible-Light Chip Could Further Miniaturization

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
To support the miniaturization of optical devices and components, a scientific team led by researchers at ITMO University has devised a quick, affordable method to make visible-light nanophotonic chips. The light source for the chip can be grown directly on a waveguide in a Petri dish using solution chemistry methods — a much less expensive approach than nanolithography. Today’s optical chips operate in the infrared (IR) range. “But to make the devices even more compact, we need to work in the visible range, as the size of a chip depends on the wavelength of its...Read full article

    optoelectronics
    Optoelectronics is a branch of electronics that focuses on the study and application of devices and systems that use light and its interactions with different materials. The term "optoelectronics" is a combination of "optics" and "electronics," reflecting the interdisciplinary nature of this field. Optoelectronic devices convert electrical signals into optical signals or vice versa, making them crucial in various technologies. Some key components and applications of optoelectronics include: ...
    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.
    nanophotonics
    Nanophotonics is a branch of science and technology that explores the behavior of light on the nanometer scale, typically at dimensions smaller than the wavelength of light. It involves the study and manipulation of light using nanoscale structures and materials, often at dimensions comparable to or smaller than the wavelength of the light being manipulated. Aspects and applications of nanophotonics include: Nanoscale optical components: Nanophotonics involves the design and fabrication of...
