Russian scientists succeeded in creating a cheap nanomaterial able to convert IR laser light in UV, so that computer networks would significantly increase their speed, as the news agency RIA Novosti reported referring to the journal Nanoscale.

In addition to accelerating the Internet, this procedure will also assist in tracking individual molecular and atomic motions.

“Using ultrashort laser pulses to transmit data, we will be able to compact and significantly accelerate its traffic. In addition, these metasurfaces can be implemented in an optical chip to switch radiation frequencies. This will allow for separating data flows and make simultaneous big data calculations”, as the innovation was commented by Anton Tsipkin, expert at St. Petersburg ITMO University through this institution’s press office.

As is known, UV radiation can be used for accelerating chemical reactions, super-resolution microscopy, and other scientific purposes and experiments.

Scientists has been long desired to design optical computers and data transmission systems, creating all new light sources and UV lasers, i.e. in the last few years, experts have designed dozens of different radiation models.

However, the difficulty lies in the fact that it is rather hard to integrate UV lasers into chips; since ultraviolet can be produced by a limited number of solid materials. The very same ultraviolet light is able to produce one order less materials, while losing tremendous energy.

But the problem was addressed alternately, i.e. Anton Tsipkin and the team just transformed IR laser light in the ultraviolet ultrashort laser beams.

Further chemical process leads to the point that the finished design allows producing a kind of deep ultraviolet emission to be perspectively applied in science, medicine, and technology.
