Controlling Motion at the Nanoscale: Rise of the Molecular Machines.
As our understanding and control of intra- and intermolecular interactions evolve, ever more complex molecular systems are synthesized and assembled that are capable of performing work or completing sophisticated tasks at the molecular scale. Commonly referred to as molecular machines, these dynamic systems comprise an astonishingly diverse class of motifs and are designed to respond to a pleth...
متن کاملMolecular plasmonics: light meets molecules at the nanoscale.
Certain metal nanoparticles exhibit the effect of localized surface plasmon resonance when interacting with light, based on collective oscillations of their conduction electrons. The interaction of this effect with molecules is of great interest for a variety of research disciplines, both in optics and in the life sciences. This paper attempts to describe and structure this emerging field of mo...
متن کاملSecondary Electron Imaging of Light at the Nanoscale.
The interaction of fast electrons with metal atoms may lead to optical excitations. This exciting phenomenon forms the basis for the most powerful inspection methods in nanotechnology, such as cathodoluminescence and electron-energy loss spectroscopy. However, direct nanoimaging of light based on electrons is yet to be introduced. Here, we experimentally demonstrate simultaneous excitation and ...
متن کاملPlasmofluidics: Merging Light and Fluids at the Micro-/Nanoscale.
Plasmofluidics is the synergistic integration of plasmonics and micro/nanofluidics in devices and applications in order to enhance performance. There has been significant progress in the emerging field of plasmofluidics in recent years. By utilizing the capability of plasmonics to manipulate light at the nanoscale, combined with the unique optical properties of fluids and precise manipulation v...
متن کاملAnti-Hermitian plasmon coupling of an array of gold thin-film antennas for controlling light at the nanoscale.
Open quantum systems consisting of coupled bound and continuum states have been studied in a variety of physical systems, particularly within the scope of nuclear, atomic, and molecular physics. In the open systems, the effects of the continuum decay channels are accounted for by indirect non-Hermitian couplings among the quasibound states. Here we explore anti-Hermitian coupling in a plasmonic...
