Article Abstract

A study on the variation of the spectral bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) of four diffuse reflectance standards (matte ceramic, BaSO(4), Spectralon, and white Russian opal glass) is accomplished through this work. Spectral BRDF measurements were carried out and, using principal components analysis, its spectral and geometrical variation respect to a reference geometry was assessed from the experimental data. Several descriptors were defined in order to compare the spectral BRDF variation of the four materials.

Electrocatalytic CO reduction (eCOR) under acidic conditions is the game changer of resourceful CO utilization owing to the alleviated carbon loss but faces severe competition from the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) that greatly curtails the electric current efficiency. Leveraging the eCOR side of the teeterboard calls for a fundamental understanding of the triphasic electrode process involving a complex arrangement of electric double layers (EDLs). Herein, a series of model catalysts with tailored cavernous parameters are fabricated to geometrically and spectroscopically decipher the competing HER and eCOR processes that engage different proton sources.

Fano lineshapes associated with quasi bound-state-in-the-continuum resonances, that are supported by dielectric metasurfaces, have the advantageous properties of being extremely sensitive to minute geometrical changes in the meta-atoms. We show an approach to determine deep subwavelength feature sizes, comparable to semiconductor critical dimension metrology, by structurally infilling a void of a dielectric disk-hole metasurface design. Our simulated results show a sensitivity of 40.

Recent advances in nanostructured photodetectors have enabled precise control over light absorption while minimizing photon losses. In this work, we demonstrate a plasmonic metamaterial absorber based on two-dimensional MXene (Ti₃C₂Tₓ) featuring geometrically tunable tetragram-shaped arrays. Through finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulations and structural optimization, we achieved over 90% photon absorption across the broadband spectral range of 1000-2500 nm, representing a significant enhancement in operational bandwidth.

Capturing multi-dimensional optical information is indispensable in modern optics. However, existing photodetectors can at best detect light fields whose wavelengths or polarizations are predefined at several specific values. Integrating broadband high-dimensional continuous photodetection including intensity, polarization, and wavelength within a single device still poses formidable challenges.

Diffusiophoresis of a liquid metal droplet (LMD) in a cylindrical pore is investigated theoretically in this study. A patched pseudo-spectral method based on Chebyshev polynomials combined with a geometric mapping technique is adopted to solve the resulting governing electrokinetic equations in irregular geometries. Several interesting phenomena are found which provide useful guidelines in practical applications involving liquid metal droplets (LMDs) such as drug delivery.
