Laser Gives Scientists Precise Nanoscale Control of Phonons
Original: Laser Provides Precise Control over Phonons at Nanoscale Level
Researchers report using laser light to precisely control phonons — quantized vibrations in materials — at the nanoscale. The advance could enable faster, smaller devices by manipulating heat and sound-like vibrations directly within chips and other nanostructures. It marks a step forward in phononics, a field seeking to use vibrations for information processing and thermal management alongside conventional electronics.
Why now: New research demonstrating nanoscale phonon control has implications for next-generation electronics and thermal management.
