It was taken with a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and was the winning photograph in a competition held by Oxford Instruments Plasma Technology.

The winning photograph was submitted by PhD Candidate Victor Dolores-Calzadilla from the Photonic Integration Group at TU/e.

Dolores-Calzadilla commented:

“We’re currently researching metal-cavity nanolasers and nanoLEDs using Oxford Instruments systems for their fabrication. I am thrilled with our results and am happy to demonstrate the capabilities of the Photonic Integration Group at TU/e”.

Oxford Instruments plasma processing tools were used in the fabrication of the NanoLED.

According to Dr David Haynes, sales, marketing director at Oxford Instruments Plasma Technology:

“This competition was a fantastic insight into the multiple uses of our technology, and we were pleased to receive so many diverse entries.”
