GHz Electroluminescence Modulation in Nanoscale Subwavelength Emitters

by Pasqualantonio Pingue | Sep 12, 2016 | Home slide, News

In their work published on NanoLetter researchers of NEST investigated light emission from nanoscale point-sources obtained in hybrid metal–GaAs nanowires embedding two sharp axial Schottky barriers. Devices are obtained via the formation of Ni-rich metallic alloy...

Gate-Tunable Spatial Modulation of Localized Plasmon Resonances

by Pasqualantonio Pingue | Sep 1, 2016 | Home slide, News

In a recent paper on NanoLetters, researchers of NEST Laboratory demonstrated localization and field-effect spatial control of the plasmon resonance in semiconductor nanostructures, using scattering-type scanning near-field optical microscopy in the mid-infrared...

A surface acoustic wave (SAW)-enhanced gratingcoupling phase-interrogation surface plasmon resonance (SPR) microfluidic biosensor.

by Pasqualantonio Pingue | Jun 8, 2016 | Home slide, News

A surface acoustic wave (SAW)-enhanced, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) microfluidic biosensor in which SAW-induced mixing and phase-interrogation grating-coupling SPR are combined in a single lithium niobate lab-on-a-chip was demonstrated by Matteo Agostini, Marco...
Efficient Terahertz detection in black-phosphorus nano-transistors with selective and controllable plasma-wave, bolometric and thermoelectric response

Efficient Terahertz detection in black-phosphorus nano-transistors with selective and controllable plasma-wave, bolometric and thermoelectric response

by Pasqualantonio Pingue | Jun 8, 2016 | Home slide, News

The ability to convert light into an electrical signal with high efficiencies and controllable dynamics, is a major need in photonics and optoelectronics. In the Terahertz (THz) frequency range, with its exceptional application possibilities in high data rate wireless...

Nanoscale phase engineering of thermal transport with a Josephson heat modulator

by Pasqualantonio Pingue | Jun 7, 2016 | Home slide, News

Macroscopic quantum phase coherence has one of its pivotal expressions in the Josephson effect, which manifests itself both in charge and energy transport. The ability to master the amount of heat transferred through two tunnel-coupled superconductors by tuning their...
