Open AccessDirective giant upconversion by supercritical bound states in the continuum
Photonic bound states in the continuum (BICs), embedded in the spectrum of free-space waves1,2 with diverging radiative quality factor, are topologically non-trivial dark modes in open-cavity resonators that have...

Protein A Denaturation Sensing Through Surface Enhanced InfraRed Absorption (SEIRA) Spectroscopy
A pixeled plasmonic metasurface (MS) has been developed as a surface-enhanced infrared absorption (SEIRA) spectroscopy substrate to monitor the denaturation process of a protein A (PA) monolayer. The different...

Open AccessGuided resonance in negative index photonic crystals: a new approach
The behavior of a negative refraction photonic crystal slab irradiated with out-of-plane incident beam is an unexplored subject. In such an experimental configuration, guided mode resonance appears in the refl...

Open AccessEllipsometric determination of permittivity in a negative index photonic crystal metamaterial
In this work, we present the first experimental evidence of negative dielectric susceptibility in a two-dimensional silicon photonic crystal (PhC) with negative refractive index behavior. In the frequency rang...

Large area light propagation in quasi-zero average refractive index materials
In this paper the experimental results show near-infrared light collimation through large area (2 x 2 mm) nanopatterned material with refractive index quasi-zero on the average. This quasi-zero refractive inde...

Enzymes and proteins from extremophiles as hyperstable probes in nanotechnology: the use of D-trehalose/D-maltose-binding protein from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Thermococcus litoralis for sugars monitoring
The D-trehalose/D-maltose-binding protein (TMBP), a monomeric protein of 48 kDa, is one component of the trehalose and maltose (Mal) uptake system. In the hyperthermophilic archaeon Thermococcus litoralis, this i...

Li Batteries with Porous Sol-Gel Cathodes
Lithium batteries have found a wide range of applications due to their very compact energy packing and effective cost. Theoretically Li-cells can hold up to 5V, however to date no mass-produced rechargeable ba...
