Imperfections and irregularities are unavoidable in nanoscience due to the limited level of control of nanofabrication processes. Disorder is potentially detrimental to nanosystems but if well-contained, disorder could lead to novel physical concepts and applications. By introducing a slight degree of disorder in nanolasers, the laser no longer emits in one specific direction but in all directions.
