Thermal transport in nanostructures plays a critical role in modern technologies. As devices shrink, techniques that can measure thermal properties at nanometer and nanosecond scales are increasingly needed to capture …
The field of nanophotonics has witnessed a surge of interest in localized light emitters, driven by their potential to revolutionize optoelectronic devices. These emitters, including nanoparticles, nanowires, and quantum wells, …
Moiré twist angle underpins the interlayer interaction of excitons in twisted van der Waals hetero- and homostructures. The influence of twist angle on the excitonic absorption of twisted bilayer tungsten …
The IMPULSE project (In situ MaPping insulator-to-metal transitions by Ultra-high resolution electron SpEctromicroscopy) will develop the characterization tools capable of mapping at sub-nanometer scale the insulating/metallic (I/M) nanodomains induced by insulator-to-metal transition (IMT).
The excitonic states of transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) monolayers are heavily influenced by their external dielectric environment and depend on the substrate used. In this work, various wide band gap …
The ambition of QUENOT is to overcome several current conceptual and experimental limits in nanooptics using the quantum properties of fast electrons. Indeed, certain key concepts and quantities in nanooptics …
Scientific description The emergency of data-intensive technological areas has generated an urgent need of implementing optical telecommunication functionalities in group IV materials, encouraging researchers to develop novel direct bandgap systems …
Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) is an emergent optical material being an indirect bandgap yet with a bright luminescence in the far UV. In the last years a general picture of …
