Quantitatively Predicting Angle‐Resolved Polarized Raman Intensity of Anisotropic Layered Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study develops comprehensive methodologies to predict angle‐resolved polarized Raman (ARPR) intensity profiles of anisotropic layered materials (ALMs), spanning from atomically‐thin layers to bulk limit. By considering birefringence, linear dichroism and multilayer interference, the complex refractive indexes and intrinsic Raman tensors are ...

Surface Energy‐Confined Multi‐Layer Inkjet Printing for Customizable Optical Microstructures

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A surface energy‐confined multi‐layer inkjet printing strategy is developed for customizable fabrication of 3D optical microstructures. By combining interfacial energy confinement with layer‐by‐layer processing, various 3D curved optical microstructures with tailorable morphology, material composition, and spatial configuration are precisely fabricated

Manipulating the Chiral Self‐Assembly of Achiral Porphyrin Molecules with Carbon Nanotubes as Templates

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A chiral self‐assembly of achiral porphyrin molecules is presented on the surfaces of achiral carbon nanotubes, and the obvious optical activity is observed as direct and solid spectroscopic evidence. The findings provide an effective carbon nanotube‐templated strategy for inducing and manipulating the chiral self‐assembly of porphyrin and other chiral/
