University of Chicago scientists invent smallest known way to guide light
Scientists found that a sheet of glass crystal just a few atoms thick could trap and carry light. Not only that, but it was surprisingly efficient and could travel relatively long distances—up to a centimeter, which is very far in the world of light-based computing.
Three UChicago scientists named 2022 fellows of American Physical Society Scholars
Scholars recognized for contributions to atomically-thin materials, electron structure methods
Robot-aided assembly could help scientists speed pace of discovery for new technologies
Technique by UChicago scientists creates ‘assembly line’ for integrating new materials
UChicago scientists create material that can both move and block heat
Unusual material could improve the reliability of electronics and other devices
