Directed Light Steering

This scientific illustration was created as part of a submission package to Nature Nanotechnology. The accompanying research was describing a fabricated silicon device that could be used to trap and then direct incoming light to a specific target.

This commission submitted to Nature Nanotechnology, but was ultimately not selected for publication.

The work has been printed (with color modifications) in several online press releases, however, and can be found here:
