Angle-Insensitive and CMOS-Compatible Subwavelength Color Printing
The proposed color filter devices produce distinctive reflection colors that are easily tuned via a one-step fabrication process.
META 2016 – 7th International Conference on Metamaterials, Photonic Crystals and Plasmonics
A report from the META 2016 conference, held from 25 to 28 July in Torremolinos, Spain.
Light-driven soft robot mimics caterpillar locomotion in natural scale
Scientists have now created a light-driven soft micro robot to mimic caterpillar locomotion in natural scale.
The Effects of Molecular Chirality on Liquid Crystals
Liquid crystals with a bent-core have revolutionized research in soft condensed matter chemistry and physics.
1D nanostructures enable novel photonic devices in lieu of liquid crystal-based techniques
The ability to control the structural properties at the microscopic level in real-time allows the optical properties of the host medium to dynamically change .
Advanced Optical Materials – July Issue Covers
Check out the articles highlighted on the covers of the latest issue of Advanced Optical Materials.
Efficient radiative pumping of polaritons in a strongly coupled microcavity
This analysis demonstrated that the polariton states are most likely formed when the excited dye molecules in the cavity emit a photon, with this photon then directly exciting the photon-like part of the polariton.
Plasmon-mediated photocatalysis – Pd nanoparticles in a double role
Pd nanosheets function both as broadband light absorbers and as synthetic catalysts for the dehydrogenation of formic acid to hydrogen and oxygen.
easySTORM: High resolution – low costs
easySTORM: a robust, lower-cost approach to localization and TIRF microscopy A broad range of new microscopy methodologies have recently been introduced collectively referred to as “super-resolved microscopy (SRM)”. They offer resolution measured in tens of nanometers...
