    Direct chemical conversion of graphene to boron- and nitrogen- and carbon-containing atomic layers

    Graphene and hexagonal boron nitride are typical conductor and insulator, respectively, while their hybrids hexagonal boron carbonitride are promising as a semiconductor. Here we demonstrate a direct chemical ...

    Active dielectric antenna on chip for spatial light modulation

    Integrated photonic resonators are widely used to manipulate light propagation in an evanescently-coupled waveguide. While the evanescent coupling scheme works well for planar optical systems that are naturall...

    Micrometre-scale silicon electro-optic modulator

    As electronic components continue to shrink, the metal interconnections between them will soon become the limiting factors on performance. Hence the interest in optical interconnections as replacements. The re...
