Wired for sound: A third wave emerges in integrated circuits

EurekAlert  August 19, 2019 In their review article an international team of researchers (Australia, USA – Yale University, University of Illinois) outlines the rich physics that emerges from such a fundamental interaction as that between light and sound, which is found in all states of matter. The paper outlines the rich physics that emerges from such a fundamental interaction. The big advance here is in the simultaneous control of light and sound waves on small scales. According to the researchers there are barriers to overcome before this chip-scale integrated system can be deployed commercially, but the payoff in terms of […]
