Optically programmable encoder based on light propagation in two-dimensional regular nanoplates

We design an efficient optically controlled microdevice based on CdSe nanoplates. Two-dimensional CdSe nanoplates exhibit lighting patterns around the edges and can be realized as a new type of optically controlled programmable encoder. The light source is used to excite the nanoplates and control the logical position under vertical pumping mode by the objective lens. At each excitation point in the nanoplates, the preferred light-propagation routes are along the normal direction and perpendicular to the edges, which then emit out from the edges to form a localized lighting section. The intensity distribution around the edges of different nanoplates demonstrates that the lighting part with a small scale is much stronger, defined as ‘1’, than the dark section, defined as ‘0’, along the edge. These ‘0’ and ‘1’ are the basic logic elements needed to compose logically functional devices. The observed propagation rules are consistent with theoretical simulations, meaning that the guided-light route in two-dimensional semiconductor nanoplates is regular and predictable. The same situation was also observed in regular CdS nanoplates. Basic theoretical analysis and experiments prove that the guided light and exit position follow rules mainly originating from the shape rather than material itself.
