Optical chirality without optical activity: How surface plasmons give a twist to light

open access: yes, 2010
Light interacts differently with left and right handed three dimensional chiral objects, like helices, and this leads to the phenomenon known as optical activity.

Characterization of Mueller matrices in retroreflexellipsometry

open access: yes, 2021
Ellipsometry is a widely-used technique for characterizing materials and thinfilms. The principle is based on the polarization changes after light is reflectedor transmitted at a sample. In general, the shape of the sample should be flat ornearly flat because ellipsometry is sensitive to the angle of incidence, tilt angleand the sample position (height

Multifunctional Properties of Wintergreen (Gaultheria procumbens) Essential Oil: Antimicrobial, Antibiofilm, and Insecticidal Effects

open access: yesFlavour and Fragrance Journal, EarlyView.
Unveiling the potential of Wintergreen (Gaultheria procumbens) essential oil. ABSTRACT This study investigated the antimicrobial, antibiofilm, and insecticidal properties of wintergreen (Gaultheria procumbens L.) essential oil (GPEO). The EO was chemically characterized by GC–MS, confirming methyl salicylate as the predominant compound (99.3%).

Chiral supramolecular electronics for high‐efficiency circularly polarized organic light‐emitting diodes

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights supramolecular strategy for achieving band‐level chirality in vacuum‐deposited triazatruxene thin films, enabling circularly polarized organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs) with both high dissymmetry factor and external quantum efficiency, thereby overcoming the longstanding efficiency‐dissymmetry trade‐off in circularly ...

Beyond Tradition: An Integrated Toxicological, Ecological, and Public Health Perspective on Aristolochic Acids

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aristolochia species have long been used in traditional medicine for their presumed anti‐inflammatory, analgesic and antimicrobial properties. However, extensive toxicological and epidemiological evidence now demonstrates that these plants contain aristolochic acids (AAs) I and II, highly potent nephrotoxic, genotoxic, and carcinogenic ...
