Nanolaser

Caption

DTU researchers have invented a nanolaser constructed in a semiconductor membrane that causes electrons and light to gather in a small area (blue shadow). By using light instead of electrical signals on microchips, data speed can be increased and energy loss reduced. Illustration: Yi Yu.
