Periodic high-/low-index film stacks composed of Y(2)O(3) : Eu were grown by glancing angle deposition on silicon and fused silica substrates. Postdeposition annealing at temperatures from 600 to 1000 degrees C for 1 h in air was performed to activate photoluminescence. Absolute photoluminescence spectra were obtained as a function of observation angle. The angular emission distribution was non-Lambertian, with peak emission at angles of 50 to 60 degrees with respect to substrate normal. Spectroscopic transmittance and ellipsometry measurements were performed to characterize the films. Using this description, we were able to reproduce the angular photoluminescence patterns of the films.

Photocatalysts composed of ZnSe nanorods were prepared by using a glancing angle deposition technique facilitated by electron beam evaporation equipment. To enhance the photocatalytic efficiency of ZnSe, a vulcanization process was introduced. The impact of various parameters, including curing temperature, duration, and nanorod length, on the photocatalytic performance was systematically examined.

Enantioselective discrimination is critical in several fields, particularly in pharmaceutics and clinical drug research. Chiral molecules possess unique charge transfer properties, showing an enantioselective preference for electron spin orientation when interacting with the magnetic surface. Here, we developed spin-selective charge transfer (SSCT)-based label-free surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) achiral magnetic substrates for the enantioselective discrimination of chiral molecules without creating asymmetric chiral adsorption sites.

Flexible thermoelectric materials are usually fabricated by incorporating conducting or organic polymers; however, it remains a formidable task to achieve high thermoelectric properties comparable to those of their inorganic counterparts. Here, we present a high zT value of 1.29 ± 0.

The requisite phase-conjugate mirror inside the resonator is constructed using non-degenerate four-wave mixing (4WM) in rubidium vapor. The glancing-angle phase-conjugate mirror is a 100% output coupler, and therefore this resonator is unusual in that no light circulates the cavity more than once.
