DESCRIPTION

Researchers have discover squeezed light at the nanoscale that propagates only in specific directions along thin slabs of molybdenum trioxide. Besides its unique directional character, this nanolight lives for an exceptionally long time, and thus could find applications in signal processing, sensing or heat management at the nanoscale.
