Development and characterisation of laser power converters for optical power transfer applications
IET Optoelectronics, 2014 Interest in single‐junction photovoltaic devices has been renewed in recent years due to their potential to produce very high optical to electrical conversion efficiencies under monochromatic illumination. A single‐junction photovoltaic converter was developed for monochromatic radiation (a laser power converter (LPC)) to ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The SERS spectra of reporter molecules adsorbed on chiral gold nanorods depends on the handedness of circularly polarized light (CPL‐SERS). The bisignate plasmonic CD spectra of chiral nanorods provides wavelength‐dependent CPL‐SERS. Selective discrimination of chiral nanorod handedness and different Raman reporters allow highly sensitive codification ...

Three-dimensional models of conventional and vertical junction laser-photovoltaic energy converters [PDF]
Three-dimensional models of both conventional planar junction and vertical junction photovoltaic energy converters have been constructed. The models are a set of linear partial differential equations and take into account many photoconverter design ...

Demonstration of an All‐Optical AND Gate Mediated by Photochromic Molecules
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A logic AND gate that runs on photons is demonstrated. It relies on two spatially separated photochromic molecules that work in tandem. Abstract The realization of a photonic logic AND gate, i.e. a logic AND gate that runs on photons rather than electrons, and where all steps are controlled by light, is demonstrated. In a proof‐of‐principle experiment,

Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Almond shells, an abundant agricultural by‐product, are repurposed to create a fully bioderived almond shell/chitosan composite (ASC) degradable in soil. ASC is converted into laser‐induced graphene (LIG) by laser scribing and proposed as a substrate for transient electronics.

InGaAs/GaAs metamorphic buffer for laser power converter applications
Optics ExpressThis paper investigated the optimization of InGaAs/GaAs metamorphic buffer and its application to LPCs (laser power converters). Firstly, InGaAs (18%) metamorphic buffer with step (S), step + overshoot (SO), step + reverse (SR), and step + reverse + overshoot (SRO) structures were investigated by X-ray, AFM and TEM, respectively.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Controlled syntheses of lanthanide coordination polymers based on the dihydroxybenzoquinone (DHBQ) organic linker afforded large single crystals of Ln‐DHBQ CPs (Ln = Yb, Nd). A novel structural variant of Yb‐DHBQ is identified by means of single crystal diffraction analysis.

Double Helical Plasmonic Antennas
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Plasmonic double helical antennas funnel circularly polarized light to the nanoscale, offering strong chiroptical interaction and directional light emission. Extending a single helix design tool, this study combines numerical modeling with experimental validation, revealing large, broadband dissymmetry factors in the visible range.

Modulating Electrochemical CO2 Reduction Pathways via Interfacial Electric Field
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Engineering interfacial electric fields in Cu/ITO electrodes enables precise control of CO2 reduction pathways. Charge transfer from Cu to ITO generates positively charged Cu species that steer selectivity from ethylene toward methane. This work demonstrates how interfacial electric‐field modulation can direct reaction intermediates and transform ...
