Quantum mechanism triggers emission of tunable light at terahertz levels
Southampton, UK (SPX) Jun 20, 2014 - Scientists have found that two-dimensional (2D) nanostructures with asymmetric design enable a new quantum mechanism, triggering the emission of tunable light at terahertz frequencies-with unprecedented efficiency. The researchers, from the University of Southampton and Imperial College London, found that quantum wells, 2D nanostructures formed of several layers of semi-conductor alloys pl ... more
