Atomic-scale nonlinear optical interferometers
Description of the granted funding
Our project is anticipated to revolutionize optical technology by developing atomic-scale nonlinear optical interferometers using two-dimensional van der Waals superlattices. These thin materials, when electronically coupled, manipulate coherent nonlinear optics to create distinct interference patterns, differing significantly from traditional optical interferometry methods. Our approach not only offers new functions and enhanced performance but also allows us to custom-design these interferometers for specific applications, such as advanced microscopy and novel sensing and probe technologies. This project will deepen our understanding of atomic-scale interactions, potentially leading to breakthroughs in precision technology.
