However, the absorptivity of graphene nanowall arrays remains above 0.9 in the 350- to 1200-nm band. In addition, with similar structural parameters, the absorption properties of nanowall arrays are better than those of nanorod arrays. The change in the structural parameter and morphology can lead to an increase in the pore number, specific surface area, and multistage reflection and achieve optical absorption enhancement. Graphene nanowall arrays show excellent absorption properties by our experimental measurement.","PeriodicalId":16449,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nanophotonics","volume":"17 1","pages":"026003 - 026003"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46591538","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our proposed work analyzes and models the photonic crystal (PhC)-based elliptical ring resonator for detecting viral and bacterial infections. Optical sensors show extreme results as sensing devices. So, they are broadly accepted in the medical field for the rapid and effective diagnosis of diseases. Optical biosensors are designed to detect cancer, malaria, typhoid, tuberculosis, etc. The principle behind the working of optical biosensors is a shift in the peak resonance wavelength corresponding to the small changes in the refractive index values. Due to the rapid mutation and replication of viral pathogens in the human cell nucleus, there is high demand for sensors that provide accurate results for viral and bacterial diseases in seconds. Hence, optical biosensors can give results in a short amount of time with a high sensitivity. The proposed sensor achieved a high sensitivity of 881.25 nm / RIU for tuberculosis and 555.55 nm / RIU for hepatitis B. The quality factor and figure of merit is also calculated, and their values come out to be 624.37 and 346.38, respectively, in the case of typhoid and Bacillus cereus.

A biosensor structure based on a ternary photonic crystal (TPC) containing a defect is designed and simulated. This proposed biosensor detects the concentration of glucose in human urine. Based on the transfer matrix method, we theoretically studied the transmission spectra through the TPC presuming blood samples with different refractive indices (RIs) infiltrated into the defect layer of the proposed structures. By varying the concentration of glucose in the urine, the RI of the urine is changed, which in turn changes the sensor’s output response; both transmission response and resonance wavelength are affected. We evaluated average sensitivity (S) for the number of periods at different values N for optimization purposes. Our results show that the biosensor has performance parameters for a period value N = 6. Indeed, a value of 1033 nm of full width at half maximum photonic bandgap can be observed with a S of 965 nm / RIU. The quality factor is 1892.542 and the figure of merit is 756.86 RIU − 1.

Dual-symmetry breakings including permittivity asymmetry and geometry asymmetry have been studied in all dielectric split-ring metamaterials supported bound states in the continuum. For any single symmetry breaking, the proposed metamaterials can support simultaneously dual quasi-bound states in the continuum (quasi-BICs). Multipolar decomposition reveals that dual quasi-BICs induced by permittivity asymmetry are both governed by magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole, whereas dual quasi-BICs induced by geometry asymmetry are governed by magnetic dipoles. Under the combined effect of the two types of symmetry breaking, it is found that the quasi-BIC can be weaken and vanished, which is different from enhanced quasi-BIC effect induced by a single symmetry breaking. In addition, asymmetric magnetic and electric field distributions can be realized by selecting different type of symmetry breaking, providing a new way of indirectly manipulating the localized magnetic fields. We show that dual-symmetry breakings point to a unique routine to analyze the physical mechanism of quasi-BICs, which furthermore provide a useful insight into their tuning behavior.","PeriodicalId":16449,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nanophotonics","volume":"17 1","pages":"026010"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49367566","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The origin of the chiral response is explained using linear superposition theory, and the authors also discovered a strong chirality near-field enhancement at 796 and 810 nm, which could be used in molecular chirality sensing and other fields.

A method for the preparation of composites that allow the growth of ZnO nanorod structures on the full surface of porous silicon (polished surface, pore walls, and pore bottoms) is presented.

The morphology of ZnO nanorods at different concentrations of the growth solution was investigated using scanning electron microscopy. X-ray diffraction confirmed the formation of ZnO hexagonal fibrous zincite structures. UV–Vis absorption spectroscopy confirmed that the composites possess good light absorption in the broad spectral region. In the wavelength range of 300 to 400 nm, the light absorption value of the porous silicon/zinc oxide (porous Si/ZnO) nanorods was increased by ~25% compared to that of the porous Si/ZnO films.
