Nanoshells are a class of nanoparticles consisting of a dielectric core surrounded by a thin metallic shell, typically made of gold or silver. The core material is usually silica or a polymer, while ...

The femtosecond laser maskless optical projection lithography (Fs-MOPL) technique is proposed to fabricate Ag@methacrylamide chitosan/poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (Ag@MP) micropatterns in one step ...

(Nanowerk News) Scintillators are detectors that make high-energy X-rays or particles visible through flashes of light to form an image. Their many applications include particle physics, medical ...

The maximum absorption wavelength of silicon solar cells (SSCs) is approximately 1100 nm, due to the inherent bandgap limitations of silicon materials. This constraint results in significant optical ...

A recent article in Nature Communications describes the direct observation of core–shell metallic nanowire growth using advanced imaging techniques. These methods enable visualization of atomic-scale ...
