Caltech scientists first to trap light and sound vibrations together in nanocrystal (EurekAlert!)
( California Institute of Technology ) Researchers at the California Institute of Technology have created a nanoscale crystal device that, for the first time, allows scientists to confine both light and sound vibrations in the same tiny space. “This is a whole new concept,” notes Oskar Painter, associate professor of applied physics at Caltech. Painter is the principal investigator on the paper …
