Low cost, controlled crystallinity, chemical, and mechanical stability enable application of
polymers in energy, water, electronics, and biomedical industries. Recent studies have …

Discovery of graphene and its astonishing properties have given birth to a new class of
materials known as “2D materials”. Motivated by the success of graphene, alternative …

Materials with relatively small refractive indices (n< 2), such as glass, quartz, polymers,
some ceramics, etc., are the basic materials in most optical components (lenses, optical …

Photocatalytic hydrogen evolution from water has triggered an intensive search for metal-
free semiconducting photocatalysts. However, traditional semiconducting materials suffer …

Light scattering by small particles has a long and interesting history in physics. Nonetheless,
it continues to surprise with new insights and applications. This includes new discoveries …

One of the biggest challenges of 21st century is to develop powerful electrochemical energy
devices (EEDs). The EEDs such as fuel cells, supercapacitors, and Li-ion batteries are …

The past decade has seen an intensive effort to achieve optical imaging resolution beyond
the diffraction limit. Apart from the Pendry–Veselago negative index superlens …

We study in detail a novel type of optical nanoantennas made of high-permittivity low-loss
dielectric particles. In addition to the electric resonances, the dielectric particles exhibit very …

The imaging resolution of a conventional optical microscope is limited by diffraction to∼ 200
nm in the visible spectrum. Efforts to overcome such limits have stimulated the development …
