Size and Number Concentration Measurements of Polystyrene Nanoparticle Suspensions using Several Different Techniques

September 8, 2022
Author(s)
Paul C. DeRose, Kurt D. Benkstein, Elzafir B. Elsheikh, Adolfas K. Gaigalas, Sean Lehman, Dean C. Ripple, Linhua Tian, Wyatt N. Vreeland, Adam York, Yu-Zhong Zhang, Lili Wang
The number concentrations of nominal 100 nm, 200 nm and 500 nm diameter, fluorescently-labeled polystyrene nanosphere suspensions were measured using seven different techniques. Diameter values were also measured where possible. The diameter values were

Relative effects of polymer composition and sample preparation on glass dynamics

August 17, 2022
Author(s)
Christopher Soles, Amanda L. Forster, Katherine Evans, Madhusudan (Madhu) Tyagi, Robert M. Elder, Timothy Sirk, Joseph Dennis, Kanae Ito, Osama Yamamuro, Hiroshi Akiba
Modern design of common adhesives, composites and polymeric parts makes use of polymer glasses that are stiff enough to maintain their shape under a high stress while still maintaining a ductile behavior after the yield point. Typically, material

Broadband Nanoscale Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy by Multiresonant Nanolaminate Plasmonic Nanocavities on Vertical Nanopillars

August 8, 2022
Author(s)
Meitong Nie, Yuming Zhao, Wonil Nam, Junyeob Song, Wenqi Zhu, Henri Lezec, Amit Agrawal, Wei Zhou
Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has become a sensitive detection technique for biochemical analysis. Despite significant research efforts, most SERS substrates consisting of single-resonant plasmonic nanostructures on the planar surface suffer

Metasurface on integrated photonic platform: from mode converters to machine learning

July 20, 2022
Author(s)
Zi Wang, Yahui Xiao, Kun Liao, Tiantian Li, Hao Song, Haoshuo Chen, S M Zia Uddin, Dun Mao, Feifan Wang, Zhiping Zhou, Bo Yuan, Wei Jiang, Nikolas Fontaine, Amit Agrawal, Alan Willner, Xiaoyong Yu, Tingyi Gu
Integrated photonic circuits are created as a small form factor and robust analogue for fiber-based optical systems, from wavelength-division multiplication transceivers to more recent mode-division multiplex-ing components. Silicon nanowire waveguides

ZnO fin optical cavities

June 16, 2022
Author(s)
Babak Nikoobakht, Amit Agrawal, Scott A. Wight, Jonathan Lee, Michael Shur
Nanostructured semiconductors have shown great promise toward miniaturization of electrically driven semiconductor lasers. Previously, we reported on an electrically driven sub-micron size ZnO-GaN fin LED architecture that at high current densities showed

Revising quantum optical phenomena in adatoms coupled to graphene nanoantennas

June 8, 2022
Author(s)
Garnett W. Bryant, Miriam Kosik, Marvin Muller, Karolina Slowik, Andres Ayuela, Carsten Rockstuhl, Marta Pelc
Graphene flakes acting as photonic nanoantennas sustain strong electromagnetic field localization and enhancement. To exploit the field enhancement, quantum emitters such as atoms or molecules should be positioned in such close proximity to the flake that
