Workshop in Novel Emitters and Nanostructured Materials

The Solid-State Lighting Science Energy Frontier Research Center (SSLS EFRC) is hosting a workshop in conjunction with CINT’s Annual User Conference on September 14, 2011.
The workshop covers topics on Novel Emitters and Light-Matter Interaction in Nanostructured Materials, and features a plenary talk by Lars Samuelson, Director of the Nanometer Structure Consortium at Lund University. Additional speakers include John Schlager, NIST; Silvija Gradecak, MIT; Jennifer Hollingsworth, LANL; Leonid Butov, UC-San Diego; Vladimir Bulovic, MIT; and Stephane Kena-Cohen, Imperial College. The full agenda and abstracts can be found here.

This event will be held at the Marriott Pyramid North Hotel in Albuquerque, NM.

Registration for the SSLS EFRC portion of the workshop is free, and can be found at https://cint.newmexicoconsortium.org.

Applying a voltage to lanthanum strontium manganite (LSMO) can cause it to separate into distinct regions with dramatically different magnetic properties, as illustrated by the red and blue colors in the above figure.

Tuning Magnetism With Voltage Opens a New Path to Neuromorphic Circuits

Experiments show that applied voltage can dramatically alter the magnetic properties of quantum materials.

A metallic line atop a medium biased at the edge of chaos can provide effective negative resistance for time-varying signals, outputting a larger signal compared to its input. The energy for amplification comes from the static bias applied to the medium.

The “Edge of Chaos” Amplifies Signals Without Transistors

Emulating the edge of chaos of axons enables a metal wire to overcome its resistance without cooling, thereby amplifying signals flowing inside of it.
