We derive the dispersion relation of Bloch modes in a fishnet metamaterial in the optical frequency domain. The dependence of the longitudinal wave vector component on the transverse one and the frequency, which governs diffraction and dispersive spreading of localized light excitations, respectively, are analyzed. We…

The optical properties of thin silver films fabricated by the oblique angle deposition method are investigated. The localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) wavelength can be easily tuned from 401 to 666 nm in the visible range by changing the film thickness from 5 to 100 nm and the deposition angle from 0 to 85°.

Spiders routinely produce multiple types of silk; however, common wisdom has held that insect species produce one type of silk each. This work reports that the green lacewing ( Mallada signata, Neuroptera) produces two distinct classes of silk. We identified and sequenced the gene that encodes the major protein compon…

In recent years, energy transfer (ET) using semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) is getting increased attention. However, it has been postulated that ET between QDs is based on the F\"orster model, which is a well-established model of ET mechanism in organic dye systems, without verification. In this work, we have investi…

A selective growth method for ZnO vertical nanowire arrays is demonstrated using self-assembled gold nanoparticles as the growth catalyst. Gold nanoparticles functionalized with bifunctional (thiol-phosphonic acid) ligands assemble rapidly and selectively onto a patterned ZnO seed layer. Vertical ZnO nanowire arrays a…

Peroxide-based explosives, like triacetone triperoxide (TATP), are important targets for detection because of their broad use in improvised explosives but pose challenges. We report a highly sensitive turn-on fluorescence detection for H2O2 and organic peroxides, including TATP. The detection strategy relies on oxidat…
