Terahertz Light Controls Atomically Thin Semiconductors - Semiconductor Digest

Physicists at Bielefeld University and the Leibniz Institute for Solid State and Materials Research Dresden (IFW Dresden) have developed a method to control atomically thin semiconductors using ultrashort light pulses. The study, published in Nature Communications, could pave the way for components that are controlled at unprecedented speeds directly by light — ushering in a new generation of optoelectronic devices. The researchers employ specia…
