Resetting single nanoparticle structural phase with nanosecond pulses
The authors demonstrate that transitions from high temperature phases to low temperature phases in a gallium nanoparticle can be stimulated by nanosecond optical pulses, and explain how this phenomenon could be used in a single nanoparticle all-optical memory.
