Nanolasers emerging technology for  optical interconnects, near-field spectroscopy and sensing, optical probing for biological systems, microprocessors and quantum circuits

Lasers are widely used in household appliances, medicine, industry, telecommunications and more.  A nanolaser is a laser that has nanoscale dimensions. These tiny lasers can be modulated quickly and, combined with their small footprint, this makes them ideal candidates for on-chip optical computing.   Several years ago, scientists introduced nanolasers that generate coherent light at…
