Chiral Phase Change Nanomaterials

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates reversible, non‐volatile phase transitions in chiral Ge2${\rm Ge}_2$Sb2${\rm Sb}_2$Te5${\rm Te}_5$ (GST) nanohelices for high‐speed optical modulation of chirality and dynamic control of the state of polarization (SOP). The chiral nanostructures are fabricated using a highly directional, wafer‐scale physical vapor deposition ...

Observation of Two-Photon Induced Excited-State Absorption Phenomena in C60 and C70 Derivatives

, 2012
Four fullerene dyads with different cabazole units, named a, b, c, d, were studied by using a femtosecond laser with 780nm wavelength using Z-scan methods. Interestingly, all of them show strong two-photon induced excitedstate absorption behaviors, which

Magnetic‐Field Control of Surface States in CoFe2O4 Thin Films for Nitrate Electroreduction to Ammonia

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Magnetic‐field‐assisted CVD of heterometallic single‐source precursors modulates thin‐film surface electronic structure and interfacial charge transfer. Field‐grown (Cobalt ferrite‐1T)CF‐1T films exhibit stabilized electronic states, lower kinetic barriers, and markedly enhanced nitrate‐to‐ammonia electrocatalysis versus (Cobalt ferrite‐0T) CF‐0T ...

Emulation of coherent absorption of Fock-state quantum light in a programmable linear photonic circuit

Nature Communications
Non-Hermitian quantum systems, governed by nonunitary evolution, offer powerful tools for manipulating quantum states through engineered loss. A prime example is coherent absorption, where quantum states undergo phase-dependent partial or complete ...

Birefringence and Anisotropy of the Losses Due to Two-Photon Absorption of Femtosecond Pulses in Crystals

Photonics
It is shown that the two-photon absorption (TPA)-induced losses in a non-centrosymmetric crystal reduce considerably when the angle θ between the polarization vector of incident radiation and the optical c-axis is 45°.

Two-Photon-Excited Fluorescence-Encoded Infrared Spectroscopy

, 2016
We report on a method for performing ultrafast infrared (IR) vibrational spectroscopy using fluorescence detection. Vibrational dynamics on the ground electronic state driven by femtosecond mid-infrared pulses are detected by changes in fluorescence ...

Powering Nanocrystal‐Based Heat Engines With Light‐Emitting Metasurfaces That Influence Their Temperature

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Metasurfaces and other structured photonic environments can dramatically modify the absorption and/or light emission of semiconductors. However, the consequences of these changes on the temperature of the system are not well understood. The authors address this problem for colloidal nanocrystals and leverage their findings to convert light into ...
