  1. 1. Photothermal Effect in Plasmonic Nanostructures and its Applications

    Författare :Xi Chen; Min Qiu; Sergey I. Bozhevolnyi; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Plasmonic; Photothermal Effect; Silicon Photonics; Gold Nanoparticles; Physics; Fysik;

    Sammanfattning :   Plasmonic resonances are characterized by enhanced optical near field and subwavelength power confinement. Light is not only scattered but also simultaneously absorbed in the metal nanostructures. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Alloy Plasmonics - Fundamentals and Applications

    Författare :Christopher Tiburski; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; sensing; gold-palladium; nanothermometry; palladium-hydride; nanoalloys; photothermal; plasmonics; CO oxidation; heterogeneous catalysis; dielectric function;

    Sammanfattning : Alloys have for a long time been important in the development of our society; from the Bronze Age, where man learned how to alloy copper with tin, to today, where many products are made of steel and aluminum alloys. Similarly, but maybe not as generally well known, alloys have lately been proposed as a new paradigm in nanophotonics, to tailor optical properties of nanomaterials that find applications within telecommunication, sensing, or biotechnology.

  4. 3. Multicomponent Resonant Nanostructures: Plasmonic and Photothermal Effects

    Författare :Vadim Zakomirnyi; Hans Ågren; Zilvinas Rinkevicius; Sergey Karpov; Davy Gérard; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :plasmonics; photonics; nanoparticles; Teoretisk kemi och biologi; Theoretical Chemistry and Biology;

    Sammanfattning : In recent decades, plasmonic nanoparticles have attracted considerable attention due to their ability to localize electromagnetic energy at a scale much smaller than the wavelength of optical radiation. The study of optical plasmon waveguides (OPWs) in the form of chains of nanoparticles is important for modern photonics. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Lignin nanoparticles for photonic crystals and photothermal films

    Författare :Jinrong Liu; Mika H. Sipponen; Maurice Collins; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; lignin; colloid chemistry; films; coatings; nanocomposites; materialkemi; Materials Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : The development of sustainable materials from biobased resources is essential due to environmental concerns posed by fossil-based materials. Lignin is a chemically complex biopolymer that exists in woody tissues of vascular plants. Lignin has many useful properties such as antioxidant activity, thermal stability, UV-absorbance, rigidity and so on. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Optical manipulation and heating of gold nanoparticles near interfaces

    Författare :Daniel Andrén; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; LSPR spectroscopy; particle-surface separation distance; thermal reshaping; TIRM; nanomotor; plasmonics; photothermal effects; Brownian dynamics; gold nanorod; optical tweezers;

    Sammanfattning : By focusing laser light to small volumes, its momentum can be used to trap and manipulate objects in the size range from cells down to single atoms. Devices using this effect are called optical tweezers, and have found use in measuring and applying minuscule forces and torques, contributed to deepening our knowledge of molecular motors, unraveling the mechanics of cells and DNA, and better understand statistical mechanics and hydrodynamic interactions at the nanoscale.
