Multi-component chalcogenides, such as quasi-binary GeTe-Sb$_{2}$Te$_{3}$ alloys, are widely used in optical data storage media in the form of rewritable optical discs. Ge$_{2}$Sb$_{2}$Te$_{5}$ (GST) in particular has proven to be one of…
The application of ultrathin two-dimensional (2D) perovskites in near-infrared and visible-range optoelectronics has been limited owing to their inherent wide bandgaps, large excitonic binding energies and low optical absorption at higher…
Photonic time crystals are a class of artificial materials that have only recently been explored. They are characterized by the ultrafast modulation of the material properties in time, causing a momentum bandgap for light that propagates…
Applying elastic deformation can tune a material physical properties locally and reversibly. Spatially modulated lattice deformation can create a bandgap gradient, favouring photo-generated charge separation and collection in optoelectronic…
Normally, the focal length of a conventional lens is fixed. Scientists have made much effort in modulating it into bifocal, which is very important for virtual reality (VR) and argument reality (AR) 3D display. It is even much more…
