The dichalcogenide MoS2, which is an indirect-gap semiconductor in its bulk form, was recently shown to become an efficient emitter of photoluminescence as it is thinned to a single layer, indicating a transition to a direct-gap semiconductor due to confinement effects. With its layered structure of weakly coupled, co…

Precise displacement sensors are an important topic in precision engineering. At present, this type of sensors typically have a single feature of either translation or rotation measurement. They are also inconvenient to integrate with the host devices. In this report we propose a new kind of sensor that enables both t…

Interaction between surface plasmons at two interfaces inside a meta-insulator-metal (MIM) structure is one of the interesting physical phenomena in nanophotonics. We have started to create a plasmonic active spectral filter based on the MIM structure for a developing white light-emitting diode (LED) visible-light com…

Background and Objectives: Electro-Fenton process has been widely applied for dye removal from aqueous solution lately. Fenton's reagent is formed in the electrolysis medium through the simultaneous electrochemical reduction of O2 and Fe3+ to H2O2 and Fe2+ respectively on the cathode surface. In this paper, COD reduct…
