Bio‐inspired nanophotonics: Structural color, chirality, and resonance metasurfaces

InfoMat, EarlyView.
A butterfly‐wing‐inspired anisotropic plasmonic flatband resonant metasurface. Insets, photo of the butterfly, Sasakia charonda, and the SEM image of its wing scale (above); the SEM image of the metasurface (below). Abstract The dazzling colors of butterfly wings and hummingbird feathers are not painted with pigments, but crafted by nature's invisible ...

A personal 360° view of applications of ‘biomimetic’ molecular recognition

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract Molecular recognition between biological molecules has formed the basis for innumerable applications in biotechnology for the last seven decades or so. Techniques such as affinity chromatography, solid‐phase and aqueous two‐phase extraction, affinity precipitation, biomimetic catalytic systems, biosensors and molecular imprinting all exploit ...

Plasmon–Exciton–Driven Modulation of the Electronic and Optical Properties of MoS2 via Cayley Tree Fractal Nanostructures

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
This work investigates the change in optical and electronic properties of monolayer MoS2 through the coupling of its excitons and a plasmonic fractal structure. The formation of the heterostructure shows significant enhancement on the edge of the fractal pattern relative to off, owing to the enhanced electric field at the edge of the branches.

Chain‐End Grafting of RAFT Polyelectrolyte Macroligands to Stabilize Near‐Infrared‐Emitting Gold Nanoclusters

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Surface‐functionalized gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) are synthesized in situ by chain‐end grafting of RAFT polyelectrolytes at room temperature directly in water. It leads to highly stable polymer‐AuNCs nanohybrids emitting near‐infrared photoluminescence with µs lifetimes. ABSTRACT With their photoluminescence properties, gold nanoclusters (AuNCs, d<2 nm)

Liquid‐Phase Fabrication of Janus 2D Materials: Defect‐Rich MoS2 Ultrathin Layers Asymmetrically Decorated with Au Nanoparticles

Small, EarlyView.
This work presents a versatile strategy for asymmetrically decorating MoS2 flakes using SiO2 microspheres as masking templates. The Janus MoS2 exhibits a 1.9‐fold enhancement in photoluminescence (PL) due to the incorporation of Au nanoparticles (NPs), primarily dominated by B exciton emission, which is attributed to defect‐rich structures.

Liquid‐Processed 2D Aromatic Amorphous Carbon: Defect Engineering and Universal Transport Scaling

Small, EarlyView.
Liquid‐processed graphene oxide (GO) thin films undergo a controllable crystalline–to–amorphous transition driven by thermal quenching. By kinetically tuning oxygen‐driven defect formation during reduction, scalable 2D aromatic amorphous carbon phases are stabilized, directly linking nanoscale disorder and defect topology to electronic transport ...
