Magnetron Sputter Epitaxy of High-Quality GaN Nanorods on Functional and Cost-Effective Templates/Substrates

open access: yesEnergies, 2017
We demonstrate the versatility of magnetron sputter epitaxy by achieving high-quality GaN nanorods on different substrate/template combinations, specifically Si, SiC, TiN/Si, ZrB2/Si, ZrB2/SiC, Mo, and Ti.

Unlocking the Full Potential of Zinc Oxide/Cerium Oxide Composite Nanoparticles for Removal of Mixed Pharmaceutical and Dye Pollutants in Water

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
ZnO/CeO2 composite nanoparticles synthesized via a facile hydrothermal method simultaneously degrade ciprofloxacin, tetracycline, methylene blue, and methyl orange in a four‐component mixture under UV irradiation. The Ce3+/Ce4+ redox cycling and oxygen vacancies at the ZnO/CeO2 interface suppress charge recombination and enhance reactive species ...

Transducers Across Scales and Frequencies: A System‐Level Framework for Multiphysics Integration and Co‐Design

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Transducers convert physical signals into electrical and optical representations, yet each mechanism is bounded by intrinsic trade‐offs across bandwidth, sensitivity, speed, and energy. This review maps transduction mechanisms across physical scale and frequency, showing how heterogeneous integration and multiphysics co‐design transform isolated ...

Highly Sensitive Plasmonic Silver Nanorods

open access: yesACS Nano, 2011
We compare the single-particle plasmonic sensitivity of silver and gold nanorods with similar resonance wavelengths by monitoring the plasmon resonance shift upon changing the environment from water to 12.5% sucrose solution. We find that silver nanoparticles have 1.2 to 2 times higher sensitivity than gold, in good agreement with simulations based on ...

Beyond Brown: Lignin's Emerging Role in Structural Color

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Lignin, long regarded as a brown industrial byproduct, is emerging as a sustainable platform for structural color. This Perspective highlights how lignin's refractive index, intrinsic absorption, and nanoscale assembly enable tunable photonic responses in colloidal and thin‐film architectures, and outlines design strategies to advance scalable, bio ...
