Less Power and Higher Performance With A Nanolaser With Extreme Dielectric Confinement (DTU)


A new technical paper titled "A nanolaser with extreme dielectric confinement" was published by researchers at Technical University of Denmark (DTU). Abstract "The interaction between light and matter can be enhanced by spatially concentrating the light field and extending photon dwell time. Plasmonic structures can provide strong light confinement but suffer from ohmic losses. Recent adv... » read more

Startup Funding: September 2020


It was a good month for startups, with big rounds in automotive, data centers, and AI. A new startup with big backing is taking aim at energy inefficiency in the data center, and another is looking to make the industrial IoT battery-free. SK Hynix founded a new company to analyze semiconductor manufacturing data, and one of China's EV companies sees a massive cash infusion. This month, we look ... » read more
