Observing Nanoparticles by Achieving Frequency Splitting

More than two has always been considered to be a crowd. However, at present, electrical and systems engineers from the Washington University in St. Louis and their colleagues have demonstrated that when a third nanoscatterer is added to a photonics resonator, in addition to the existing two “tuning” nanoscatterers, the result is just exhilarating.
