Macroscopic photonic single crystals via seeded growth of DNA-coated colloids
Nature Communications, 2023 Photonic crystals—a class of materials whose optical properties derive from their structure in addition to their composition—can be created by self-assembling particles whose sizes are comparable to the wavelengths of visible light.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study demonstrates an alternative method of creating charge‐stable negatively charged nitrogen vacancy (NV−) centers close to the diamond surface without high‐temperature annealing. By illuminating nitrogen‐implanted regions with a continuous‐wave 405 nm laser, NV− centers are induced, exhibiting electron spin coherence properties suitable for ...

Maxwell Fish-Eye and Half-Maxwell Fish-Eye Based on Graded Photonic Crystals
IEEE Photonics Journal, 2018 We report on the design of the Maxwell fish-eye based on graded photonic crystals. It is a radially graded refractive index structure, whose remarkable property is to form perfect images in the sense of geometrical optics.

Possible realization of directional optical waveguides in photonic crystals with broken time-reversal symmetry. [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2005 We show how, in principle, to construct analogs of quantum Hall edge states in "photonic crystals" made with nonreciprocal (Faraday-effect) media. These form "one-way waveguides" that allow electromagnetic energy to flow in one direction only.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The versatile precursor‐assisted soft sphere close packing during slot‐die coating is investigated with in situ X‐ray scattering. The soft crystallization pathways towards a close packing involve multistep structural transitions such as surface nucleation, in‐plane, and out‐of‐plane crystallization.
