A Dual‐Emissive DNA‐Templated Silver Nanocluster with Near‐Infrared I and II Emission

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, Volume 13, Issue 8, March 13, 2025.
This study presents a dual‐emissive DNA‐stabilized silver nanocluster with a nanosecond‐lived NIR‐I emission band and a microsecond‐lived NIR‐II emission band. Mass spectrometry establishes that the nanocluster has molecular formula (DNA)2[Ag17]11+. DNA sequence variations reveal critical nucleobases for stabilization, and modifications at the DNA 5 ...

Observation of Laser Cooling on an Electric‐Dipole‐Allowed Transition in Cr3+:LiSAF Crystal

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
In this work, an electric dipole allowed transition in Cr3+:LiSAF crystals is investigated for the purpose of optical refrigeration. A cooling efficiency approaching 10% is experimentally determined using a mode‐mismatched dual‐beam thermal lens method with 1 µm excitation in an unoriented 1% Cr3+:LiSAF sample.

Driving Micro‐Objects Using Optical Force due to Fluorescence Emission From Molecules

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Emission of fluorescence from a micro‐object in a specific direction is expected to generate an optical force driving the object in the opposite direction of the emission, like a rocket. To demonstrate this ‘photon‐driven micro‐rocket’, we prepared dye‐doped polymer micro‐object (PMO) one surface of which was covered with metallic film; the PMO ...

Directional Whispering Gallery Mode in Microring Lasers Enabled by Tilted Azimuthal Gratings

open access: yesAdvanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.
The chiral light propagation in microring lasers with active cladding, enabled by tilted azimuthal gratings, is illustrated. The symmetry of the whispering gallery mode is disrupted due to scattering losses that are determined by the tilted angle, resulting in distinct clockwise and counterclockwise light propagation, and enabling controlled chirality ...
