A coupled-wave analysis of the particularly low-loss 0th- and -1st-order switching triggered by the +1st- and -2nd-order excitation of the surface plasmon of an undulated metal surface reveals that the cancelation of the -1st-order diffraction efficiency is due to the destructive interference between the field directl…

Spandex is increasingly used in either every course or alternating courses of knitted fabrics to impart a greater level of stretch and form stability than that can be achieved with cotton alone. The incorporation of spandex to the fabric structure effects many of the fabric properties. In this study, 100% cotton, half…

We report catalyst-free growth of high-density single-sided ZnO nanocombs for the first time on a multi-layer graphene (MLG). Structural analysis based on scanning electron microscope reveals the nanocomb ribbon average diameter and length are about 90–600 nm and 5–60 μm, respectively, while the diameter and length of…

Spin polarization and stacking are interesting effects in complex molecular systems and are both presented in graphene-based materials. Their possible combination may provide a new perspective in understanding the intermolecular force. The nanoscale graphene structures with zigzag edges could possess spin-polarized gr…

We fabricated a series of mesoporous silicas and mesoporous organosilicates with hierarchical porosity through evaporation-induced self-assembly using Pluronic F127 as a template in this study. We could tailor the mesophase of each mesoporous silica sample by varying the weight ratio of its two silica sources: tetraet…

A continuum theory to describe periodic ripple formation in planar graphene/boron nitride superlattices is formulated. Due to the lattice mismatch between the two materials, it is shown that flat superlattices are unstable with respect to ripple formation of appropriate wavelengths. A competition between bending energ…

We report the manipulation of spin-dependent splitting by geometric Doppler effect based on dielectric metasurfaces. The extrapolation of rotational Doppler effect from temporal to spatial coordinate gives the phase change when the local optical axes of dielectric metasurfaces are rotating in space. Therefore, the con…

We develop a general theoretical approach to describing the interaction of metamaterials with optical beams. The metamaterials are allowed to be anisotropic, chiral, noncentrosymmetric, and spatially dispersive. Unlike plane waves, beams can change their field distributions upon interaction with metamaterials, which c…
