Photonic band gap properties of one-dimensional photonic quasicrystals containing Nematic liquid crystals

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2020
Reflectance spectra of one-dimensional periodic multilayered stacks with anisotropic defect layer built according to the Generalized Thue Morse sequence is investigated by the theoretical transfer matrix method for both polarized waves.

An optical probe of a 3D photonic band gap [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
There is a wide interest in three-dimensional (3D) photonic crystals that radically control the spontaneous emission of embedded quantum emitters and cavity QED, control thermal emission, allow for efficient miniature lasers, or efficient photoelectric ...

Thermoresponsive Liquid Crystalline Polymer Coatings Programmed by Field‐Induced Topological Defects for Tunable Optical and Topographical Responses

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Resonant standing waves generate large‐area lattices of liquid‐crystal topological defects that are permanently encoded into polymer coatings by photopolymerization. The preserved director architecture produces thermally reconfigurable surface topographies while maintaining programmable optical functionality, demonstrating a scalable strategy for ...

The influence of fabrication deviations on the photonic band gap of three-dimensional inverse woodpile nanostructures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The effects of unintended deviations from ideal inverse woodpile photonic crystals on the photonic band gap are discussed. Such deviations occur during the nanofabrication of the crystal.

High‐Efficiency Deep Blue Single‐Gaussian Europium(II) Emitters and Their Emitter‐Host Interactions

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Crown‐ether ligands and carborate anions enable vacuum‐processable Eu(II) emitters with efficient single‐Gaussian deep‐blue luminescence. Combined photophysical and computational analyses reveal that excited‐electron confinement and steric shielding of the europium center jointly govern compatibility with OLED host materials, establishing molecular ...

Indirect transitions of a signal interacting with a moving refractive index front [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This research was supported by the German Research Foundation DFG (EI 391/12-2).The dynamic manipulation of light can be achieved by the interaction of a signal pulse propagating through or reflected from a refractive index front.

Photo‐Switchable Molecular Module Programming PET Biodegradation in Aquatic Environments

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We address the plastic durability paradox by integrating an itaconic acid–derived pyrrolidone module into polymer backbones. Sunlight in water triggers Norrish Type I ring‐opening and hydrophilization, enabling rapid biodegradation into nontoxic minerals.

Architecture‐Driven Functional Coupling in Vertically Aligned Nanocomposites

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Vertically aligned nanocomposites define a growth‐engineered architecture in which vertical interfaces, strain fields, defect pathways, and phase connectivity are created simultaneously. This review shows how these architectural features couple ferroic, optical, ionic, electrochemical, and device responses, establishing design rules and open challenges

Hollow-core photonic band gap fibers for particle acceleration

open access: yesPhysical Review Special Topics. Accelerators and Beams, 2011
Photonic band gap (PBG) dielectric fibers with hollow cores are being studied both theoretically and experimentally for use as laser driven accelerator structures. The hollow core functions as both a longitudinal waveguide for the transverse-magnetic (TM)

Ground‐State Charge‐Transfer Doping in Donor–Acceptor Semiconducting Polymers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates controlled ground‐state charge‐transfer complex formation (GS‐CTC) and doping in a series of diketopyrrolopyrrole‐based donor–acceptor semiconducting polymers paired with a π‐conjugated penta‐t‐butylpentacyanopentabenzo[25]annulene “cyanostar” macrocycle. Complementary experimental techniques show how subtle molecular, electronic,
