Mastering liquid crystal phase technologies for terahertz communication

Written by

Dr Oh-e has found a way to control liquid crystal behaviour not with visible light but with terahertz radiation.

Terahertz radiation is very useful in a number of fields, including communications and biological imaging, but it has historically been difficult to control for such applications. Dr Masahito Oh-e at the National Tsing Hua University in Taiwan has been exploring how liquid crystal-based technologies might be used to make new devices to harness the power of terahertz radiation. In recent […]

Unravelling the Mysteries of Deep-Blue Luminescence

Written by

Some molecules glow as brilliantly as fireflies through a process known as luminescence. Different molecules can emit different colours of light, including red, green, and blue. However, not all colours are as easy to generate as others. Dr Masahito Oh-e at National Tsing Hua University, Taiwan, together with his collaborator Dr Akira Nagasawa, Professor Emeritus of Saitama University in Japan, […]
