Photo of Photonic Crystal Structures for Leds Created with Wafer-Scale Nanopatterning

Caption: Wafer-scale nanopatterning is used in the fabrication of photonic crystal structures for light emitting diodes or LEDs. Creating nanomanufacturing process systems that are high-throughput, reliable and versatile is the focus of the NSF Nanosystems Engineering Research Center led by the University of Texas, called the Center for Nanomanufacturing Systems for Mobile Computing and Mobile Energy Technologies or NASCENT.
