Researchers in the Dionne group at Stanford have designed a nanoscale laser capable of self-isolated Raman Lasing, where lasing and isolation occurs within the same pumping mechanism.
The Dionne lab has developed ultrathin and compact devices for electrically driven beamsteering that fit on a semiconductor chip. These devices rely on resonant dielectric nanostructured surfaces known as "high quality factor" (high-Q) metasurfaces.
