Luminescent hyperbolic metasurfaces
When engineered on scales much smaller than the operating wavelength, metal-semiconductor nanostructures exhibit properties unobtainable in nature. Namely, a uniaxial optical metamaterial described by a hyperbolic dispersion relation can simultaneously behave as a reflective metal and an absorptive or emissive semiconductor for electromagnetic waves with orthogonal linear polarization states. U...
متن کاملSpecular optical activity of achiral metasurfaces
Optical activity in 3D-chiral media in the form of circular dichroism and birefringence is a fundamental phenomenon that serves as evidence of life forms and is widely used in spectroscopy. Even in 3D-chiral media exhibiting strong transmission optical activity, the reflective effect is weak and sometimes undetectable. Here we report that specular optical activity at structured interfaces can b...
متن کاملNegative Refractive Index Metasurfaces for Enhanced Biosensing
In this paper we review some metasurfaces with negative values of effective refractive index, as scaffolds for a new generation of surface plasmon polariton-based biological or chemical sensors. The electromagnetic properties of a metasurface may be tuned by its full immersion into analyte, or by the adsorption of a thin layer on it, both of which change its properties as a plasmonic guide. We ...
متن کاملZrO2 Nanoparticles: Optical Properties of Tetragonal Phase and Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity
Tetragonal zirconia (t-ZrO2) nanoparticles were synthesized from thezirconium chloride using the co-precipitation technique and characterized by variousmeasurement techniques. FESEM analysis further revealed spherical shaped NPs andHR-TEM analysis determined the size of the particles in the range of 14.5 nm. The bandgap energy was estimated 4.0 eV. The UV (350 nm) emissi...
متن کاملOptical metasurfaces: from planar to conformable optics
Abrupt modifications of the fields across an interface can be engineered by depositing an array of subwavelength resonators specifically tailored to address local amplitude, phase and polarization changes [1]. Physically, ultrathin nanostructure arrays, called “metasurfaces”, control light by engineering artificial boundary conditions of Maxwell’s equations. Metasurfaces have been implemented t...
