nanolasers

Microscopic light sources

Nanolasers are lasers built at the nanometer scale—thousands of times smaller than conventional lasers.

They emit coherent light from structures measured in billionths of a meter, enabling applications in optical computing, high-speed data transmission, and medical imaging.

The technology promises to integrate light-based communication directly into microchips: Researchers demonstrated nanolasers that could revolutionize on-chip optical networks.
