Single nanoparticle as photonic switch and optical memory element
Single nanoparticle as photonic switch and optical memory element
We review the concept of using nanoparticles undergoing light-induced transformations between structural phases with different optical properties as key components of optical gate and memory elements, with the potential to operate on picosecond timescales at femtojoule energy levels.
