Nature Index 2023: XPANCEO ranks among the top 10 institutions in the United Arab Emirates

We are thrilled to announce that XPANCEO has been recognized as one of the top 10 contributors to the Nature Index in the United Arab Emirates. The Nature Index is a highly respected database that tracks scientific output of  institutions and countries through articles published in 82 high-quality natural-science journals.

The development of XPANCEO's smart lens is rooted in fundamental science and exceptional research experience in new optics, nanophotonics, novel materials, and biosensors. XPANCEO’s Emerging Technology Research Center investigates the unknown properties of various physical effects, develops new materials, and directly applies their findings to the smart lens's elements.

Articles featuring contributions from the XPANCEO team have been published in Nature Communications, Nano Letters, Nature Materials and the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America (PNAS). These articles delve into the extraordinary properties of emerging materials, including 2D materials and Transition Metal Chalcogenides (TDMCs), frequently touted as the most promising and revolutionary frontier materials of the 21st century.

The research papers were co-authored with several world’s top scientists including Konstantin (Kostya) Novoselov from the National University of Singapore. Novoselov, along with Andre Geim, was awarded the 2010 Nobel Prize in Physics for their groundbreaking work on graphene.

On a practical level, these scientific discoveries pave the way for next-generation optoelectronics and offer exciting potential for implementations in various application areas, including medicine, electronics, biosensing,  nanophotonics, and quantum information applications. For example, as a practical demonstration, a two-dimensional TMDC material (PdSe2) has been employed for the realization of a novel topological phase singularities-based refractive index sensor that demonstrated its superior phase sensitivity compared to traditional optoelectronic sensors used these days. The discoveries will be applied to  XPANCEO’s smart lens features such as ultrasensitive smart sensors for detecting molecules of glucose and night vision option.

We keep forging ahead, continuously exploring the fascinating and magical properties of novel materials. Stay tuned to learn more about our discoveries and research projects.
