Metasurfaces: small technology with great potential

Newswise — Imagine being able to manipulate light with ultrathin, flat layers instead of bulky lenses and mirrors. That’s the promise of metasurfaces, a revolutionary nanostructure technology that can twist and bend light in ways never before seen. Metasurfaces are…

Could a synthetic sapphire insulator be the basis of next-generation chip technology?

Conventional chips, also called integrated circuits, have complex, interconnected structures on a silicon wafer substrate. Transistors in the chips regulate the current, while dielectric layers of insulating materials insulate the various conductive layers to prevent current leakage. Dielectric layers also…
