Abstract:
Plasmonic nanostructures can focus light far below the diffraction limit, and the nearly thousandfold field enhancements obtained routinely enable few- and single-molecule detection. However, for processes happening on the molecular scale to be tracked with any relevant time resolution, the emission strengths need to be well beyond what current plasmonic devices provide. Here, we develop hybrid nanostructures incorporating both refractive and plasmonic optics, by creating SiO2nanospheres fused to plasmonic nanojunctions. Drastic improvements in Raman efficiencies are consistently achieved, with (single-wavelength) emissions reaching 107counts⋅mW−1⋅s−1and 5 × 105counts∙mW−1∙s−1∙molecule−1, for enhancement factors >1011. We demonstrate that such high efficiencies indeed enable tracking of single gold atoms and molecules with 17-µs time resolution, more than a thousandfold improvement over conventional high-performance plasmonic devices. Moreover, the obtained (integrated) megahertz count rates rival (even exceed) those of luminescent sources such as single-dye molecules and quantum dots, without bleaching or blinking.

Spin-orbit coupling of light has come to the fore in nanooptics and plasmonics, and is a key ingredient of topological photonics and chiral quantum optics. We demonstrate a basic tool for incorporating analogous effects into neutron optics: the generation and detection of neutron beams with coupled spin and orbital angular momentum. The 3He neutron spin filters are used in conjunction with specifically oriented triangular coils to prepare neutron beams with lattices of spin-orbit correlations, as demonstrated by their spin-dependent intensity profiles. These correlations can be tailored to particular applications, such as neutron studies of topological materials.

In the field of semiconductor nanooptics, copper chalcogenides have challenged a novel direction associated with nontrivial optical features in the near IR range important for applications. We consider this phenomenon in the silica sol–gel derived glasses doped with copper selenide nanoparticles. They were characterized with transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and optical absorption spectroscopy. An origin of the near IR optical features is discussed involving both the plasmon resonance concept extended to the self-doping of chalcogenides with a variable stoichiometry and the effect of Cu2+ impurity-generated intraband levels providing linear and nonlinear optical response of these materials.

Optical computing is a very interesting 60-year old field of research. This paper gives a brief historical review of the life of optical computing from the early days until today. Optical computing generated a lot of enthusiasm in the sixties with major breakthroughs opening a large number of perspectives. The period between 1980 and 2000 could be called the golden age with numerous new technologies and innovating optical processors designed and constructed for real applications. Today the field of optical computing is not ready to die, it has evolved and its results benefit to new research topics such as nanooptics, biophotonics, or communication systems.

Abstract:
AbstractWe discuss phonon-induced non-Markovian and Markovian features in QD-based quantum nanooptics. We cover lineshapes in linear absorption experiments, phonon-induced incoherence in the Heitler regime, and memory correlations in two-photon coherences. To qualitatively and quantitatively understand the underlying physics, we present several theoretical models that capture the non-Markovian properties of the electron–phonon interaction accurately in different regimes. Examples are the Heisenberg equation of motion approach, the polaron master equation, and Liouville propagator techniques in the independent boson limit and beyond via the path integral method. Phenomenological modeling overestimates typically the dephasing due to the finite memory kernel of phonons and we give instructive examples of phonon-mediated coherence such as phonon-dressed anticrossings in Mollow physics, robust quantum state preparation, cavity feeding, and the stabilization of the collapse and revival phenomenon in the strong coupling limit of cavity quantum electrodynamics.

Abstract:
In the past decades, TiO2nanocrystals (NCs) have been widely studied in the fields of photoelectric devices, optical communication, and environment for their stability in aqueous solution, being nontoxic, cheapness, and so on. Among the three crystalline phases of TiO2, anatase TiO2NCs are the best crystallized phase of solar energy conversion. However, the disadvantages of high band gap energy (3.2 ev) and the long lifetime of photogenerated electrons and holes limit its photocatalytic activity severely. Therefore, TiO2NCs doped with metal ions is available way to inhibit the transformation from anatase to rutile. Besides, these metal ions will concentrate on the surface of TiO2NCs. All above can enhance the photoactivity of TiO2NCs. In this paper, we mainly outlined the different characterization brought about in the aspect of nanooptics and photocatalytics due to metal ions added in. Also, the paper mainly concentrated on the progress of TiO2NCs doped with rare earth (RE) ions.

Abstract:
Three-dimensional porous nanostructures made of noble metals represent novel class of nanomaterials promising for nonlinear nanooptics and sensors. Such nanostructures are typically fabricated using either reproducible yet time-consuming and costly multi-step lithography protocols or less reproducible chemical synthesis that involve liquid processing with toxic compounds. Here, we combined scalable nanosecond-laser ablation with advanced engineering of the chemical composition of thin substrate-supported Au films to produce nanobumps containing multiple nanopores inside. Most of the nanopores hidden beneath the nanobump surface can be further uncapped using gentle etching of the nanobumps by an Ar-ion beam to form functional 3D plasmonic nanosponges. The nanopores 10–150 nm in diameter were found to appear via laser-induced explosive evaporation/boiling and coalescence of the randomly arranged nucleation sites formed by nitrogen-rich areas of the Au films. Density of the nanopores can be controlled by the amount of the nitrogen in the Au films regulated in the process of their magnetron sputtering assisted with nitrogen-containing discharge gas.

Abstract:
Double-layered graphene sheets (DLGSs) as a new type of nanocomponents, with special mechanical, electrical and chemical properties, have the potential of being applied in the nanoelectro-mechanical systems (NEMS) and nanoopto-mechanical systems (NOMS). In DLGSs structure, the two graphene sheets are connected by van der Waals (vdW) interaction. Thus, it can exhibit two vibration modes during the propagation of the flexural wave, i.e., in-phase mode and anti-phase mode. Based on the Kirchhoff plate theory and the nonlocal elasticity theory, Hamiltonian equations of the DLGSs are established by introducing the symplectic dual variables. By solving the Hamiltonian equation, the dispersion relation of the flexural wave propagation of the DLGSs is obtained. The numerical calculation indicates that the bending frequency, phase velocity and group velocity of the in-phase mode and anti-phase mode for the DLGSs are closely related to the nonlocal parameters, the foundation moduli and the vdW forces. The research results will provide theoretical basis for the dynamic design of DLGSs in micro-nanofunctional devices.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTAn understanding of how dots couple in quantum dot molecules and arrays is needed so that the possibilities for tailored nanooptics in these systems can be explored. The properties of tunnel-coupled dots will be determined by how the dots couple through atomic-scale junctions. We present an atomistic empirical tight-binding theory of coupled, CdS nanocrystal artificial-molecules, vertically and laterally coupled InAs/GaAs self-assembled dots, and arrays of InAs/GaAs self-assembled dots. Electron states follow the artificial molecule analogy. The coupling of hole states is much more complex. There are significant departures from the artificial molecule analogy because the interdot hole coupling is determined by the hole envelope functions, as for the electron states, and by the hole atomic state near interdot interfaces.

Abstract:
Abstract In recent years, the spin Hall effect of light (SHE), also called the photonic spin Hall effect has received extensive research attention, and a series of interesting results have been achieved. This phenomenon has potential applications in nanooptics, quantum information, and optoelectronic devices. In contrast to the pure photon SHE, the photonic spin Hall effect in the surface plasmonic platform exhibits unique properties due to the surface plasmon resonance effect of noble metal material and establishes the connection between photons and electrons. Therefore, the SHE of light in a surface plasmonic platform is expected to be applied to integrated optical devices to create a novel means of developing communication devices. In this paper, we review the progress on the SHE of light based on the plasmonic platform in recent years, and we discuss the future directions of research and prospects for its applications.

Abstract:
AbstractAs one of the most widely used nanofabrication methods, the atomic force microscopy (AFM) tip-based nanomachining technique offers important advantages, including nanoscale manipulation accuracy, low maintenance cost, and flexible experimental operation. This technique has been applied to one-, two-, and even three-dimensional nanomachining patterns on thin films made of polymers, metals, and two-dimensional materials. These structures are widely used in the fields of nanooptics, nanoelectronics, data storage, super lubrication, and so forth. Moreover, they are believed to have a wide application in other fields, and their possible industrialization may be realized in the future. In this work, the current state of the research into the use of the AFM tip-based nanomachining method in thin-film machining is presented. First, the state of the structures machined on thin films is reviewed according to the type of thin-film materials (i.e., polymers, metals, and two-dimensional materials). Second, the related applications of tip-based nanomachining to film machining are presented. Finally, the current situation of this area and its potential development direction are discussed. This review is expected to enrich the understanding of the research status of the use of the tip-based nanomachining method in thin-film machining and ultimately broaden its application.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTThe development of a novel multidisciplinary Nanoscience Concentration Certificate Program (NCCP) at University of Texas at Brownsville (UTB) is reported. The NCCP intended to prepare undergraduate students to emerging nanotechnology markets, industry trends, cutting edge research and technology developments. The rationale for the NCCP is to integrate and expand nanotechnology-relevant courses within a comprehensive curriculum. The established certificate program includes the following seven new upper level undergraduate courses: (i) Introduction to Nanoscience, (ii) Engineering of Nanomaterials, (iii) Nanofabrication and Nanoelectronics, (iv) Introduction to Bio-Nanotechnology, (v) Environmental Nanotechnology, (vi) NanoOptics, (vii) Capstone Design. This program is designed to address the needs for a multidisciplinary undergraduate education at the UTB, which extends beyond traditional courses within science and engineering disciplines. The designed courses will expose students to the nanotechnology areas as part of integration of nanoscience in UTB’s undergraduate programs. To complete the NCCP and receive a Certificate in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, students must complete 12 credit-hours of NCCP courses. Our ultimate goal is to establish and maintain at UTB a practical, modular, scalable, transferrable and implementable educational STEM platform in nano-sciences, engineering and nanotechnology. The goal of this paper is to examine an instructional technique for Introduction to Nanoscience course as an example for promoting student understanding of scientific concepts and explanations by using combines teaching learning activities and research oriented strategies.

However, several significant constraints still remain in terms of cost, limited pattern size, processing conditions, pattern flexibility, and so on. Fabrication of features as small as 50 nm at ambient conditions with high pattern flexibility and low cost remains a serious challenge. Here we report a new solid-state electrochemical imprinting process that is carried out at ambient conditions, requires nominal pressure and very low electric potential, eliminates any liquid electrolytes, shows very high reproducibility, and promises the capability to scale up for large area patterning while retaining a significant cost advantage. Through combination of the best merits of nanoimprint lithography, micro forming, and the solid-state electrochemical imprinting technique, S4, (recently introduced by Hsu et al., Nano Lett., 2007, 7, 446; and Schultz et al., J. Vac. Sci. Techol. B, 2007, 25, 2419), we show a very high pattern flexibility to create nano-scale metallic features.As a first step, we use a micro-forming-like embossing process to engrave nano-scale features onto a solid electrolyte tool surface using an e-beam fabricated Si mold. Silver sulfide, Ag2S, is used as a solid electrolyte because of its favorable mechanical properties for micro forming and its excellent electrochemical properties. This ionic compound is ductile and has a relatively low yield stress at 80MPa. Followed by embossing, the patterned solid electrolyte surface is then used to carry out the S4 process, creating a negative image on a metallic substrate. This process eliminates the costly Focused Ion Beam milling used by Hsu et al. to create features on the electrolyte tool. It is also highly favorable for large-area patterning as well as mass-production of metallic substrates restricted only by the capability to fabricate the mold at first step. The embossed solid-electrolyte tool surface can be easily trimmed off with a microtome; the tool can then be re-used for embossing and patterning metallic substrates.Using this process we demonstrate the ability to fabricate silver nanostructures with features <15 nm. Such small features are critical in metal nanostructures for field enhancement that finds applications in SERS and other biological and chemical sensing. So far, a line edge roughness of <10 nm is observed which is significant in the sense that silver is highly mobile and has the tendency to granulate. Finally, we show how this methodology has the capability to fabricate large area patterns at low cost and ambient conditions. As a proof of concept, we demonstrate the ability to fabricate areas >30 sq. mm. Such large scale fabrication is highly desired for applications like biomimetics and patterning for superhydrophobic surfaces.
