Default Nanolight

"Recently Craighead Research Group at Cornell University reported their next “nano” breakthrough. They created a so-called “Nano-Lamp” - a microscopic collection of light-emitting fibers with dimensions of only a few hundred nanometers. According to the research article published in “Nano Letters”, the scientists were able to create one of the smallest manmade source of light that world has ever seen. "

So, the diameter of the light source could be shorter than the wavelength of the light it emits? Wow!
