Laser the size of a virus particle: Miniature laser operates at room temperature and defies the diffraction limit of light
November 6, 2012 by NewsBot
A research team has found a way to manufacture single laser devices that are the size of a virus particle and that operate at room temperature. These plasmonic nanolasers could be readily integrated into silicon-based photonic devices, all-optical circuits and nanoscale biosensors.
