Silica Nanotubes Loaded with Laser Dyes

Abstract:
A team of scientists in South Korea has used a sol-gel process to fabricate color-tunable silica nanotubes that incorporate functional laser dyes. The investigators suggest that the one-dimensional structures may form the basis of new nanoscale emitters, with potential applications in optical sensing and displays.
