UC Berkeley engineers have built a bright-light emitting device that is millimeters wide and fully transparent when turned off. The light emitting material in this device is a monolayer semiconductor, just 3 atoms thick. The device opens the door to invisible displays on walls and windows – displays that would be bright when turned on but see-through when turned off – or in futuristic applications such as light-emitting tattoos, according to the researchers...
