Engineers manipulate color on the nanoscale, making it disappear

Nanowerk  August 13, 2020
An international team of researchers (USA – University of Pennsylvania, Industry, UCLA, Singapore) demonstrated that nanostructured, multilayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) by themselves provide an ideal platform for excitation and control of excitonic modes, paving the way to exciton-photonics. Inherently strong TMDC exciton absorption resonances may be completely suppressed due to excitation of hybrid light-matter states and their interference. The work paves the way to the next generation of integrated exciton optoelectronic nano-devices and applications in light generation, computing, and sensing...read more.
