Chiroptical response of aluminum nano-crescents at ultraviolet wavelengths

April 21, 2020
Author(s)
Matthew S. Davis, Wenqi Zhu, Jared Strait, Jay K. Lee, Henri Lezec, Steve Blair, Amit Agrawal
Manipulation of plasmon modes at ultraviolet wavelengths using engineered nanophotonic devices allows for the development of high-sensitivity chiroptical spectroscopy systems. We present here a framework for the fabrication and characterization of Al based

Twist Angle-Dependent Atomic Reconstruction and Moire Patterns in Transition Metal Dichalcogenide Heterostructures

March 13, 2020
Author(s)
Matthew R. Rosenberger, Hsun-Jen Chuang, Vladimir Oleshko, Madeleine Phillips, Kathleen M. McCreary, Saujan V. Sivaram, C. Stephen Hellberg, Berend T. Jonker
Van der Waals layered materials, such as the transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), are an exciting class of materials with weak interlayer bonding which enables one to create so-called van der Waals heterostructures (vdWH). One promising attribute of

Field Ion Emission in an Atom Probe Microscope Triggered by Femtosecond-Pulsed Coherent Extreme Ultraviolet Light

March 12, 2020
Author(s)
Ann C. Chiaramonti Debay, Luis Miaja Avila, Benjamin W. Caplins, Paul T. Blanchard, Norman A. Sanford, Brian Gorman, David R. Diercks
This paper reports construction of an extreme ultraviolet (EUV) radiation-triggered atom probe tomograph and describes the results from initial experiments on amorphous SiO2. Femtosecond-pulsed coherent EUV radiation of 29.6 nm wavelength (41.85 eV photon

Photonic spin-multiplexing metasurface for switchable spiral phase contrast imaging

March 10, 2020
Author(s)
Pengcheng Huo, Cheng Zhang, Wenqi Zhu, Mingze Liu, Song Zhang, Si Zhang, Lu Chen, Henri Lezec, Amit Agrawal, Yanqing Lu, Ting Xu
As the two most representative operation modes in an optical imaging system, bright-field imaging and phase contrast imaging can address different dimensionalities of an object. Developing a miniature and low-cost system capable of switching between these

Bipolar transport underpins a wide range of semiconductor homojunction device functionalities such as pn junctions or transistors. The capability to image and understand spatial inhomogeneities un carrier type and the conductivity associated with each

Metal adsorbate interactions and the convergence of density functional calculations

February 10, 2020
Author(s)
Christoph Rohmann, Maicol A. Ochoa, Michael P. Zwolak
The adsorption of metal atoms on nanostructures, such as graphene and nanotubes, plays an important role in catalysis, electronic doping, and tuning material properties. Quantum chemical calculations permit the investigation of this process to discover

Ultra-compact visible light depolarizer based on dielectric metasurface

February 4, 2020
Author(s)
Yilin Wang, Wenqi Zhu, Cheng Zhang, Qingbin Fan, Lu Chen, Henri Lezec, Amit Agrawal, Ting Xu
With rapid development towards shrinking the size of traditional photonic systems such as cameras, spectrometers, displays and illumination systems, there is an urgent need for high performance and ultra-compact functional optical elements. The large

The role of ICP-MS in Separation Science

December 17, 2019
Author(s)
Antonio R. Montoro Bustos
Since its introduction in the 1980s, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) has evolved to become arguably the most versatile and powerful technique for the elemental analysis of metals, metalloids and selected non-metals at (ultra-)trace

Characterization of Size and Aggregation for CNC Dispersions Separated by Asymmetrical-flow Field-flow Fractionation

December 9, 2019
