We propose plasmonic metal-insulator-metal (MIM) metamaterial designs for the sensing of two infrared wavelength bands, the mid-wavelength infrared (MWIR) and long-wavelength infrared (LWIR) band by using a photon sorting technique. The proposed structures can capture light effectively on the metasurfaces based on cou…

By making a systematic study of the hydrogen-doped LaFeAsO system by means of dc resistivity, dc magnetometry, and muon-spin spectroscopy, we addressed the question of universality of the phase diagram of rare-earth-1111 pnictides. In many respects, the behaviour of LaFeAsO(1-x)H(x) resembles that of its widely studie…

The assembly of Au nanorods of average size 14 × 42 nm was investigated by electric field assisted deposition. The nanorods displayed a rich assembly behavior with formation of one dimensional (1D) architectures under specific experimental conditions. The assembly process was found to be dependent on both the intensit…

Abstract A dynamic‐covalent metal‐containing polymer was synthesized by the condensation of linear diamine and dialdehyde subcomponents around copper(I) templates in the presence of bidentate phosphine ligands. In solution, the red polymers undergo a sol–gel transition upon heating to form a yellow gel, a process that…

We predict three new polymorphs of boron by applying density functional theory (PBE flavor) to large shear deformations starting from the recently discovered γ-B 28 boron phase (stable above 9 GPa and 1000 K). We find that continuous deformation along the (100)/⟨001⟩ slip system leads to two new phases, named here as…
