Recent flow visualization studies in the 0.3-m TCT [PDF]
Light beams are altered by refractive index changes; flow induced refractive index changes provide the impetus for conventional visualization techniques such as schlieren and shadowgraph.

Journal of Research of the National Bureau of Standards, 1935 Abstract This paper presents an exploratory study of the refractive index of rubber. Previous observations on the refractive index of rubber have been, for the most part, restricted to transparent samples. In the present investigation, however, by using reflected light rather than light at grazing incidence, it was found possible to extend the ...

Biomimetic Iridescent Skin: Robust Prototissues Spontaneously Assembled from Photonic Protocells
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Uniform nanoparticles are induced to form arrays (photonic crystals) in the cores of biopolymer capsules, endowing these ‘protocells’ with structural color. These protocells are then assembled into large self‐standing objects, i.e., prototissues, with robust mechanical properties as well as iridescent optical properties.

Direct Evidence of Topological Dirac Fermions in a Low Carrier Density Correlated 5d Oxide
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The 5d oxide BiRe2O6 is discovered as a low‐carrier‐density topological semimetal hosting symmetry‐protected Dirac fermions stabilized by nonsymmorphic symmetries. Angle‐resolved photoemission spectroscopy, quantum oscillations, and magnetotransport measurements reveal gapless Dirac cones, quasi‐2D Fermi surfaces, high carrier mobility, and a field ...

Characterizing the tunable refractive index of vanadium dioxide
, 2017 Vanadium dioxide undergoes a reversible metal-insulator phase change near 68°C. This transition is often recognized for its electronic properties; however, the concomitant change in optical properties is also attractive. One application is to exploit the

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.There is a significant need for biomaterials with well‐defined stability and bioactivity to support tissue regeneration. In this study, we developed a tunable microgel platform that enables the decoupling of stiffness from porosity, thereby promoting bone regeneration.

Numerical investigation into a surface plasmon resonance sensor based on optical fiber microring
Photonic Sensors, 2017 A reflective surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor based on optical fiber microring is proposed. In such a sensor, plasmons on the outer surface of the metallized channels containing analyte can be excited by a fundamental mode of a thin-core fiber (TCF)

Flat lens without optical axis: Theory of imaging
, 2005 We derive a general theory for imaging by a flat lens without optical axis. We show that the condition for imaging requires a material having elliptic dispersion relations with negative group refraction, equivalent to an effective anisotropic refractive ...
