Dear Scientists,
The possibility of making up thin films of just a few nanometres thick demonstrated that tiny film stacks can be turned into prototype pixel-like devices. These 'nano-pixels', just hundrend nanometres in size, can be electrically switched 'on and off' at will, creating the coloured dots that would form the building blocks of an extremely high-resolution display technology or for building X and Ɣ radiation detectors avoiding the guiding effects (optical scattering losses).
Could anyone provide detailed references or give the basic processes behind shaping such nano-pixels on thin films ?
