Deskripsi

While nanoscale emitters hold promise in single-photon devices, the directivity of their emission must be improved for practical applications. Here, Johlin et al. use an evolutionary algorithm to design a dielectric nanophotonic lens that greatly enhances the directivity of a semiconductor nanowire.
