Advances in Light Emission

Material Science: Advances in Light Emission

In recent years, materials science has seen tremendous growth, thanks to the development of nanomaterials and nanostructures with unique properties (optical or electrical) to solve problems in the fields of energy generation, semiconductors, quantum sources, chemical, catalysis, and biomedical industries.

In this article collection, we present recent discoveries in the electronic phase of Weyl semimetals, dielectric nano-resonators, low-cost solid-state light emitters, colloidal semiconductor quantum dots, and light-emitting field-effect transistors.

What you will learn:

• The applications of varied materials
• New developments in phase transitions and nanowires
• The challenges of colloidal quantum dots and light emitting diodes
