The SPASER is a new type of nano-size amplifier which is analogous to a transistor in modern electronics but operates more like a laser. It will be possible to build ultrafast processors of information with SPASERs replacing transistors or can be used in nanosensing, nanoimaging and many other fields. This project will assemble a world-class team consisting of the pioneer of the concept of SPASER and others who developed design and analysis techniques in the context of semiconductor lasers and detectors to engineer SPASER design. The aim is to make robust, fast and efficient SPASERs which resembles the features of current lasers for use in circuits in the smallest possible size that consume lowest possible energy.

SPASER是一种新型的纳米尺寸放大器，类似于现代电子学中的晶体管，但操作起来更像激光器。用SPASER代替晶体管来建造超快信息处理器将是可能的，或者可以用于纳米传感，纳米成像和许多其他领域。该项目将组建一个世界级的团队，由SPASER概念的先驱和其他在半导体激光器和探测器的背景下开发设计和分析技术的人组成，以设计SPASER设计。其目的是制造坚固、快速和高效的SPASER，其类似于当前激光器的特征，用于以尽可能小的尺寸消耗尽可能低的能量的电路中。
