In a study published in Nature Communications (2026), a team of researchers from ICFO (Barcelona, Spain), TU Wien (Vienna, Austria), UCL (London, UK), MBI (Berlin, Germany), and IESL-FORTH (Heraklion, Greece) presented a solution to an important emerging open problem: understanding how bright squeezed vacuum (BSV) light propagates through nonlinear media, undergoing high-harmonic generation and how this propagation influences both the generated nonlinear signals and the quantum properties of the radiation.
A new study by researchers at IESL-FORTHA new study by researchers at IESL-FORTH and the University of Crete, in collaboration with colleagues from the National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS), Japan, demonstrates the formation of dipolar interlayer excitons in heterobilayers composed of transition metal dichalcogenide alloys.
Researchers from IESL-FORTH, Danae Katrisioti and Ioannis Paradisanos (affiliations: IESL-FORTH and MSE - UOC), together with collaborators from LAAS-CNRS have developed a versatile planarization strategy that allows atomically thin materials to be integrated with silicon nanoantennas while preserving strong optical near-field enhancement.
