Recent advancements in the study of light-matter interactions between optical cavities and two-dimensional materials have underscored the significance of strong coupling phenomena, facilitating innovative developments in optical devices and quantum information processing. In this study, we explored the interaction between Bloch-surface plasmon polaritons from a square Ag nanohole array and A exciton of monolayer WS, demonstrating a significant Rabi splitting of 74 meV via angle-resolved transient absorption spectroscopy. By analyzing the damping process of the upper and lower branches, we observe that the lower branch decays significantly faster than the upper branch. These findings not only enhance our understanding of exciton-polariton but also point to potential applications in Bose-Einstein condensation, nanophotonics, and quantum information.

The electric control of magnetism has been considered to be promising for molecular spintronics and quantum information. However, the spin-electric coupling strength appears to be insufficient for application in most cases. Two major factors capable of amplifying the relative effect are spin-orbit coupling and ferroelectricity.

Department of Physics and Guangdong Basic Research Center of Excellence for Quantum Science, Southern University of Science and Technology, Shenzhen, 518055, P. R. China.

Developing high-performance photothermal materials and unraveling the underlying mechanism are essential for photothermal applications. Here, photothermal performance improved by strong interaction between plasmon and topological surface state (TSS) is demonstrated in BiSe/CuS nanowires. This hybrid, which CuS nanosheets were grown on BiSe nanowires, leverages the plasmon resonance and TSS-induced optical property, generating wide and efficient light absorption.

Ultra-confined plasmons reveal moiré patterns in a twisted bilayer graphene-talc heterostructure.

Nanoscale

Laboratório Nacional de Luz Síncrotron (LNLS), Centro Nacional de Pesquisa em Energia e Materiais (CNPEM), Campinas, SP, 13083-970, Brazil.

This work investigates the plasmonic properties of a twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) and talc heterostructure. Talc, a naturally occurring phyllosilicate, promotes p-type charging of graphene, supporting high charge mobility and strong interaction between graphene plasmons and talc's phonon polaritons. This interaction results in the formation of surface plasmon-phonon polariton (SP) modes, which are detected using infrared scattering-type scanning near-field optical microscopy (IR s-SNOM) at room temperature.

March 2025

Analytical Chemistry Group, Department of Plant and Environmental Science, University of Copenhagen, Thorvaldsensvej 40, 1871 Frederiksberg C, Denmark.

This study explores the correlation of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in wastewater effluents using liquid chromatography (LC), supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC), and comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography (GC × GC) with derivatization, all coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). Over 300 compounds, including frequently overlooked highly polar and nonpharmaceutical CECs, were identified. Monitoring programs mainly focus on reducing variability and assessing pollution in wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) effluents under dry weather conditions, often neglecting wet-weather discharges.
