Moving From the Visible to the Infrared: Developing High Quality Nanocrystals
Moving From the Visible to the Infrared: Developing High Quality Nanocrystals
In new research published in Nature Synthesis, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign bioengineering professor Andrew Smith and postdoctoral researcher Wonseok Lee have developed mercury selenide (HgSe) and mercury cadmium selenide (HgCdSe) nanocrystals that absorb and emit in the infrared, made from already well-developed, visible spectrum cadmium selenide (CdSe) precursors. The new nanocrystal products retained the desired properties of the parent CdSe nanocrystals, including size, shape and uniformity.

Novel Design for Highly Sensitive, Fast High-Energy Photon Detector
Prof. LONG Shibing and his team from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) proposed a novel strategy for high-energy photon detector with high sensitivity and response speed by coupling the interface pyroelectric effect with the photoconductive effect based on polycrystal Ga-rich GaOx (PGR-GaOx) Schottky photodiode. Their work was published in Advanced Materials.
The New Method Developed Has Successfully Extended the Operating Range of Microcombs to Near-Infrared Wavelengths
Recently, scientists from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in the United States have devised a novel way to extend the operating range of microcombs to shorter near-infrared wavelengths. This method allows scientists to independently tailor the microcomb’s central wavelength as well as the intensity and separation of the frequencies it generates. The central wavelength of this NIR light is 1064 nm, which means it enables microcombs to be used in tandem with one of the most common and inexpensive lasers.
