Explore the cutting-edge of astronomical innovation on this 90-minute guided tour of the Richard F. Caris Mirror Lab at the University of Arizona. Learn how pioneering engineering, optical science, and precision manufacturing...
Van Der Waals materials have emerged as a revolutionary platform for photonics, offering a unique combination of direct-bandgap semiconductor properties and unprecedented flexibility for heterostructure integration. These materials exhibit simultaneously strong optical responses and unusual physical properties that enable access to coherent light-matter interaction regimes previously considered inaccessible in traditional bulk materials. In this talk,...
