  1. Technology Development and Service Unit “Micro- and Nanostructuring” & #Research Group Maria Chekhova “Quantum Radiation”

    This metasurface, designed as a source of entangled photons, features T-shaped silicon nitride nanoresonators generating quasi-BIC resonance. This enhances the vacuum field and thus boosts spontaneous four-wave mixing.

    #Chiral (left/right-handed) molecules are crucial to biochemistry. Light can distinguish between them but interacts too weakly, and boosting with #nanophotonics is not easy because it destroys chirality of EM fields. Typical solution is to design #nanostructures with highly chiral field that makes molecules absorb circularly polarised light differently. Here we find a much stronger effect where the molecules make nanostructures absorb light differently!

  7. #MyPaperInAToot

    #Chirality of #BioMolecules (left/right-handedness) is central to life. Light can be chiral too, a tool to interact with them. Light can also excite spins in #2dSemiconductors and rotate objects. #Nanophotonics can enhance these very weak effects. We surprisingly found that different phenomena, all relying on chirality of light, are incompatible! And found design rules for #metasurfaces for enhancing different chiral interactions (led by @albertogcurto).

  8. @razimantv
    Raziman also took into account that #excitons interact with each other through exciton-exciton annihilation, which normally decreases light emission at high intensities.

    So he generalized the theory of Purcell enhancement to be more precise for a range of excitonic materials like #2DSemiconductors, #perovskites, #OrganicCrystals or #CarbonNanotubes.

  9. #MyPaperInAToot

    Scientists use #nanophotonics to improve light emission. The strong electric field near nanostructures can excite molecules and extract light from them more efficiently, creating better light sources. We usually model this by assuming that the emitter stays fixed. But in many practical materials, emitting #excitons move around! We found a recipe for making such devices better by figuring out how to do calculations more correctly (led by @albertogcurto): onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10
