Advanced plasmonics: Self-assembly brings order

How to make perfectly ordered membrane without ordering

Nanoporous self-organized membranes are complex, sophisticatedly fabricated, hierarchical nanostructures which combine several unique properties such as very developed surface area and long pores through the whole free-standing or surface-bond films of several micrometers to several hundred micrometres

SERS substrates by vacuum-free dealloying of Au-based metallic glass ribbons

Plasmonics has become an important photonic device due to the advancement of fabrication technologies in recent decades. It has many applications including solar cells, nonlinear optics, metamaterials, photocatalysts, and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), etc. Among those, SERS

Magnetically-responsive nanophotonics with iron-doped silver nanoparticles

Nanostructures play an important role in photonics, thanks to the wide range of active and passive optical effects they can generate. For instance, silver (Ag) nanoparticles (NPs) are renowned for their plasmonic properties exploitable for quenching or

Erasing atherosclerosis with nanoparticles and near-infrared laser

The advent of nanomedicine and near-infrared (NIR) optics allows the development and design of tools that enhance diagnosis and treatment of atherosclerosis. Clinical application of these technologies is anticipated in the near future. Our trial called NANOM-FIM
