Advancement in Colloidal Metasurfaces: Approaches for Scalable Photonic Devices
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.This perspective explores colloidal metasurfaces composed of plasmonic and emitting nanoparticles assembled by laser interference lithography and template‐assisted self‐assembly methods. Precise design strategies achieve directional emission, low‐threshold lasing, and tunable photonic bandgaps.

The coronagraphic Modal Wavefront Sensor: a hybrid focal-plane sensor for the high-contrast imaging of circumstellar environments [PDF]
, 2016 The raw coronagraphic performance of current high-contrast imaging instruments is limited by the presence of a quasi-static speckle (QSS) background, resulting from instrumental non-common path errors (NCPEs).

How to Manufacture Photonic Metamaterials
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Metamaterials boast applications such as invisibility and “hyperlenses” with resolution beyond the diffraction limit, but these applications haven’t been exploited in earnest and the market for them hasn’t grown much likely because facile and economical methods for fabricating them without defect has not emerged.

Efficient decoding of 2D structured illumination with linear phase stepping in X-ray phase contrast and dark-field imaging. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The ability to map the phase distribution and lateral coherence of an x-ray wavefront offers the potential for imaging the human body through phase contrast, without the need to deposit significant radiation energy. The classic means to achieve this goal
