Semiconductors for Plasmonics and Metamaterials [PDF]
Plasmonics has conventionally been in the realm of metal-optics. However, conventional metals as plasmonic elements in the near-infrared (NIR) and visible spectral ranges suffer from problems such as large losses and incompatibility with semiconductor technology.

Capture and light-induced release of antibiotics by an azo dye polymer [PDF]
The isomerisation of azo dyes can induce conformational change which have potential applications in medicine and environmental protection. We developed an agar diffusion assay to test the capture and release of biologically active molecules from an azo electro-optic polymer, Poly (Disperse Red 1 methacrylate) (DR1/PMMA).
