May 05, 2022 (Nanowerk News) A research team was able to generate polarized X-rays with unprecedented purity at the European XFEL in Hamburg. The experiments involved scientists from the Helmholtz Institute Jena, a branch of GSI, Friedrich Schiller University Jena and the Helmholtz Center Dresden-Rossendorf. The method is supposed to...
Dynamic metasurfaces and metadevices empowered by graphene
May 05, 2022 (Nanowerk News) Metasurfaces, artificial subwavelength structured interfaces, exhibit unprecedented capabilities to manipulate electromagnetic (EM) waves ranging from visible to terahertz and microwave frequencies. In the past decade, static metasurfaces and metadevices have been researched extensively. Due to the passive nature of building blocks in general made of...
