Zinc Oxide Nanophotonics

Zinc Oxide Nanophotonics

The emerging field of nanophotonics initiated a dedicated study of single photon sources and optical resonators in new class of materials. One such material is zinc oxide (ZnO) that has been long considered only for classical light-emitting applications. However, it recently showed pr...
