Nano-antennas assist in improving spatial resolution of terahertz microscopy
A team lead by a LCN researcher has demonstrated a detector for terahertz waves with integrated optical nano-antennas. The detector enables enhanced spatial resolution in terahertz microscopy. Similar to more commonly used infra-red waves and X-rays, terahertz waves...
Surfing water molecules could hold the key to fast and controllable water transport
A radical new mechanism for the motion of adsorbates across the surfaces of layered materials has emerged from computer simulations of water nanodroplets on graphene. The simulations reveal that the adsorbates “surf” across the surface whilst being carried by the...
