Optical losses in silica glass fibers remain a challenge their applications. The main contributor to optical attenuation is Rayleigh scattering. This review discusses the recent studies and findings on voids effects loss. Through experimental of pressure-quenching at melting temperature, void size shrunk, loss was reduced approximately half that conventional 0.2 GPa. Our modeling results predic...

Inspired by recent advances in atomic homo and heterostructures, we consider the vertical stacking of plasmonic lattices as a new degree freedom to create coupled system showing modified optical response concerning monolayer. The precise design geometrical parameters two honeycomb tailors interaction among their metallic nanoparticles. Based on similarity lattice symmetry, analogies can be draw...

Alloying is an increasingly important handle to engineer the optical properties of metal nanoparticles that find applications in, for example, metamaterials, nanosensors, and plasmon-enhanced catalysis. One advantage alloying over traditionally used particle size shape engineering it, in principle, enables tuning without a spectral shift localized surface plasmon resonance, which where specific...
