Summary
Integration of Nanoantenna-Enhanced Sensors and Light Sources. Metal nanoparticles are ideal candidates to enhance and modify the radiation of nanoscale light sources. However, research in nano light sources is only just beginning, thus their full potential has not yet been unlocked. This project aims to develop novel nano light sources to control the polarisation-state of emission and to enhance their efficiency and brightness. The project aims to deliver a new technology platform for on-chip i ....Integration of Nanoantenna-Enhanced Sensors and Light Sources. Metal nanoparticles are ideal candidates to enhance and modify the radiation of nanoscale light sources. However, research in nano light sources is only just beginning, thus their full potential has not yet been unlocked. This project aims to develop novel nano light sources to control the polarisation-state of emission and to enhance their efficiency and brightness. The project aims to deliver a new technology platform for on-chip integration of these light sources which is needed to demonstrate real-world applications. This platform will also be used to develop a new class of compact waveguide sensors that are highly sensitive and flexible with a broad range of applications.Read moreRead less
