Resonant thermoelectric nanophotonics [PDF]
Nature Nanotechnology, 2017 Photodetectors are typically based either on photocurrent generation from electron-hole pairs in semiconductor structures or on bolometry for wavelengths that are below bandgap absorption. In both cases, resonant plasmonic and nanophotonic structures have been successfully used to enhance performance.

Nonlinear cavity optomechanics with nanomechanical thermal fluctuations
Nature Communications, 2017 Optomechanical experiments often assume linear coupling between optical fluctuations and mechanical displacements. Here, Leijssenet al. experimentally demonstrate the nonlinear interaction from thermally induced fluctuations in a sliced nanobeam cavity ...

Large period spiking andburstingin anexcitable system with memory [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2023 Excitability in dynamical systems refers to the ability to transition from a resting stationary state to a spiking state when a parameter is varied. It is the mechanism behind spike generation in neurons.

Strong-coupling of WSe2 in ultra-compact plasmonic nanocavities at room temperature
Nature Communications, 2017 Two-dimensional materials offer the prospect of excitonic devices operating at room-temperature. Here, Kleemann et al. demonstrate that by tuning the number of WSe2 layers in a nanoparticle-on-mirror geometry, room-temperature plasmon strong-coupling can

Full-spectrum nonmetallic plasmonic carriers for efficient isopropanol dehydration
Nature Communications, 2022 A nonmetallic plasmonic heterostructure of W18O49 nanowires on reduced-graphene oxide is reported for the efficient dehydration of isopropanol to 100% propylene. The energy barrier is found to be reduced under full-spectrum irradiation.
