2D material controls light twice stronger
E-Mail IMAGE: The SH light produced in the MoS2 double layer has the same phase as the MoS2 layer so the overlaid secondary harmonic wave has linear polarization. However, in a heterobilayer... view more Credit: POSTECH Since the invention of world's first laser - the ruby laser - in 1960, the human desire to control light has spread to various industries, including telecommunications, medicine, GPS, optical sensors and optical computers. Recently, a POSTECH research team has taken a step closer to its goal of controlling light by identifying nonlinear optical phenomena occurring ...
