Generating Circularly Polarised Light
Heidelberg researchers develop novel organic-inorganic semiconductor
A research team under the direction of Prof. Dr Felix Deschler at Heidelberg University’s Institute for Physical Chemistry has developed a semiconductor that efficiently generates light and simultaneously gives that light a certain spin. According to the researchers, the so-called chiral perovskite material has great technological potential that can be used for applications in optoelectronics, telecommunications, and information processing.
