A summary of the final results of 3D-DEMO is now available in the results section of this web page and as PDF download.

Such is the title of a new EC brochure featuring selected projects in the materials research domain. 3D-DEMO is among the selected success stories.

A PDF version of the brochure is available for download here.

3D-DEMO researchers from the Optoelectronics Research Centre (ORC) at the University of Southampton has published their results on Latent light-assisted poling of LiNbO3.

FEMTO-ST has published a paper describing a heterodyne interferometric scanning near-field optical microscope developed for characterizing, at the nanometric scale, refractive index variations in thin films. An optical lateral resolution of 80 nm (λ/19) and a precision smaller than 10⁻⁴ on the refractive index difference have been achieved. Samples made of thin nanocrystalline layer of lithium niobate were jointly prepared by project partners ABCD and EPFL.
The new SNOM appears as being a key tool for characterizing new kinds of thin films developed for nanophotonics applications.
