Metasurfaces are flat arrays of nanostructures that allow exquisite control phase and amplitude incident light. Although metasurfaces offer new active element for both fundamental science applications, the challenge still remains to overcome their low information capacity passive nature. Here, by integrating an inverse-designed-metasurface with oblique helicoidal cholesteric liquid crystal (Ch
Perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) are promising active materials because of their outstanding optoelectronic properties, which finely tunable via size and shape. However, previous synthetic methods such as hot-injection ligand-assisted reprecipitation require a high synthesis temperature or provide limited access to homogeneous PNCs, leading the present lack commercial value real-world applications PNCs. Here, we report room-temperature approach synthesize PNCs within liquid crystalline...
The capability of liquid crystals (LCs), that instantaneously modulate their physical and chemical properties in response to a target stimulus, found killer application crystal displays (LCDs) has made LCs one the most widely used materials. use LCs, however, is not restricted LCDs. Over decades, range characteristic features been unveiled opened access only fundamental knowledge gap but also rich variety applications beyond LCDs, including measurement Casimir torque, nonlinear...
Abstract Water pollution by toxic arsenic compounds, As(III), has emerged as a global problem, because prolonged exposure causes serious health issues. Accordingly, it is critical to monitor As(III) in drinking water and food, but conventional techniques still require complex costly instruments that are not affordable third‐world countries where contamination significant. To resolve this social issue, simple generalizable principles for the design of sensors proposed integrating selective...
Abstract Liquid crystals (LCs) are widely used as promising stimuli‐responsive materials due to their unique combination of liquid and crystalline properties, providing the capability sense even molecular‐scale events amplify them into macroscopic optical outputs. However, encoding a high level selectivity specific intermolecular event remains key challenge, leading prior studies regarding chemically functionalized LC interfaces. Herein, we propose an integrative strategy significantly...
Abstract The harvesting of sea silk, a luxurious golden textile traditionally obtained from the endangered mollusk Pinna nobilis, faces severe limitations due to conservation efforts, driving search for sustainable alternatives. Atrina pectinata , phylogenetically close relative within Pinnidae family is identified, as viable source biomimetic silk. byssal threads A. can be processed using existing methods, providing way continue producing this historically significant textile. These exhibit...
Optoelectronic nanocrystals are of enormous interest for material science and applications including solar cells light-emitting diodes due to precise tunability their properties via size shape. Accordingly, various synthetic methods have been proposed, but achieving monodispersed remains a key challenge leading the present lack commercial value real-world applications. In this presentation, I will that unique features liquid crystals can be leveraged synthesize with an unprecedented level...
