Adaptive polymers include those which are responsive to different stimuli—namely physical,
mechanical, chemical and biological—with controlled and/or predicable behavior. Many …

We study the magneto-optical response of noble metal nanoparticle clusters. We consider
the interaction between the light-induced dipoles of particles. In the presence of a magnetic …

A laser-induced optical gyrotropy is observed in light-sensitive waveguide AgCl–Ag thin
films, as a result of spontaneous periodic nanostructure formation, which is the product of …

Irradiation of photosensitive thin films results in the nanostructures formation in the
interaction area. Here, we investigate how the formation of nanostructures in photosensitive …

In the present work, the enhancement of photoinduced optical activity in a photosensitive
nanolayer of AgCl doped by Ag nanoparticles, using bi-periodic crisscrossed self-organized …

Formation mechanism of laser-induced spontaneous periodic nanostructures in thin light-
sensitive AgCl waveguide films, doped by silver nanoparticles, is studied. It is found that the …

Optical properties of the self-organized gratings in thin photosensitive waveguide AgCl films
on a glass substrate, doped by Ag nanoparticles, in the case of simultaneous excitation of …

An induced optical anisotropy is observed as a result of interaction of a high-power CW Ar+
laser beam, with silver-ion-exchanged glasses. We have shown that the absorption of the …

Irradiation of AgCl-Ag thin films by a linearly polarized He-Ne laser beam results in the
formation of self-organized periodic nanostructures. As a result of secondary irradiation of …

In the present work we consider the growth of a very dilute concentration of anisotropic
particles, nucleated with random orientations, in a matrix of growing spherical particles. It is …
