Luminescent Nanowires
9 May 2008, 17:36

Categories: smt-luminescent-light-emit

Gallium oxide (Ga2O3) nanowires have been grown by scientists at the National Tsing Hua University Nanomatarials Laboratory, in Taiwan. The linear structures emit blue light (wavelength: 400–500 nm) when irradiated with an ultraviolet source (wavelength: 254 nm) and provide a much clearer reference pattern compared with a series of quantum dots.
