Hybridization of Gap Plasmons and Grating‐Coupled Surface Plasmon Polaritons in Metal Nanoparticle Cluster Arrays on a Mirror

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Here we use a template‐assisted self‐assembly approach of metal colloids onto metal films to produce hybrid plasmonic metasurfaces that integrate nanoparticle‐on‐mirror cavities with periodic metal colloid arrays. The resulting coupling between gap plasmons and grating‐coupled surface plasmon polaritons enables programmable hybrid modes with tailored ...

Asymptotic Theory for Rayleigh and Rayleigh-Type Waves [PDF]

, 2017
Explicit asymptotic formulations are derived for Rayleigh and Rayleigh-type interfacial and edge waves. The hyperbolic–elliptic duality of surface and interfacial waves is established, along with the parabolic–elliptic duality of the dispersive edge wave on a Kirchhoff plate. The effects of anisotropy, piezoelectricity, thin elastic coatings, and mixed

Wave attenuation in glasses: Rayleigh and generalized-Rayleigh scattering scaling [PDF]

The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2019
The attenuation of long-wavelength phonons (waves) by glassy disorder plays a central role in various glass anomalies, yet it is neither fully characterized nor fully understood. Of particular importance is the scaling of the attenuation rate Γ(k) with small wavenumbers k → 0 in the thermodynamic limit of macroscopic glasses. Here, we use a combination

Spectral Reconstruction Using Broadband Inkjet‐Printed Optical Filters

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A proof‐of‐concept for a reconstructive spectrometer based on inkjet‐printed interferometric optical filters is demonstrated. Through adaptive encoding and robust post‐processing algorithms, spectral reconstruction is achieved over a 400 nm visible bandwidth at a fraction of the cost and complexity of typical encoders while maintaining high optical ...

Bio‐Inspired Object Retrieval via Proximity‐Guided Adaptive Thigmotactic Exploration and Neuromorphic Recognition

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Sparse active‐infrared proximity sensing is coupled to an adaptive thigmotactic controller for camera‐inaccessible object retrieval. After grasping, receptor‐informed encoding transforms force, temperature, and wrist force–torque signals into spike trains for spiking neural network recognition.

Perspective: Hollow Core Optical Fibres for Ultraviolet and Visible Wavelengths

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Hollow core optical fibres bypass material constraints that limit optical fibres at ultraviolet and visible wavelengths. However, their challenging fabrication has limited their development, and significant gains in performance remain possible. In this perspective we outline approaches to enable the next generation of fibres for shorter wavelengths ...
