High Fidelity Waveguides Through Vitreous Media Recomposition for Next Generation Photonic Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A newly designed aluminosilicate glass enables the fabrication of femtosecond laser‐written optical waveguides with ultra‐low propagation losses of −0.020 dB cm−1 at 1310 nm and −0.037 dB cm−1 at 1550 nm. Raman, Brillouin, and electron microscopy analyses reveal the mechanisms behind refractive index modifications, highlighting the role of glass ...

The Importance of Metal Ion Impurity Bands in the Photoluminescence of Halide Double Perovskites

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Many publications have associated emission spectral features of double perovskite halides in the region at 460–470 nm with “pristine” materials. This leads to not only false observations but also incorrect conclusions concerning the transformation of dark into bright excitons or boosting self‐trapped exciton emission.

Crude oil spilled water treatment with Vetiveria zizanioides in floating wetland

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Aquatic Research, 2017
Floating wetlands on a container (25 L) using Vetiveria zizanioides (L) Nash was applied to remediate crude oil spill in water for four weeks. Three plants (height 10 cm) were inserted in a pot containing rockwool, floated on crude oil spiked water ...

Optimization of ZnGa2O4:Cr3+ Nanoparticles Synthesis Exhibiting Persistent Luminescence for Nanoplastic Labelling and Imaging in Daphnia Magna

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
ZnGa2O4:Cr3+ nanoparticles with persistent luminescence are synthesized and optimized for labeling microplastics via cryomilling. The solvothermal method provides superior optical properties, enabling background‐free imaging. These luminescent particles are successfully used to trace microplastic uptake and distribution in Daphnia magna, offering a ...

Gasoline and crude oil prices: why the asymmetry? [PDF]

open access: yes
Many consumers complain that gasoline and crude oil prices have an asymmetric relationship in which gasoline prices raise more quickly when crude oil prices are rising than they fall when crude oil prices are falling.

An empirical analysis of the relationships between crude oil, gold and stock markets [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
This paper analyzes the direction of the causality between crude oil, gold and stock markets for the largest economy in the world with respect to such markets, the US. To do so, we apply non-linear Granger causality tests. We find a nonlinear causal relationship among the three markets considered, with the causality going in all directions, when the ...
