This review provides a broad overview of the studies and effects of nonlocal response in
metallic nanostructures. In particular, we thoroughly present the nonlocal hydrodynamic …

Interactions induced by electromagnetic fluctuations, such as van der Waals and Casimir
forces, are of universal nature present at any length scale between any types of systems …

Solar thermal collectors are systems that allow for the use of solar energy in thermal
applications. These collectors utilize a heat transfer fluid to transport absorbed solar …

Heat transfer in solids is typically conducted through either electrons or atomic vibrations
known as phonons. In a vacuum, heat has long been thought to be transferred by radiation …

Plasmon–emitter interactions are of central importance in modern nanoplasmonics and are
generally maximal at short emitter–surface separations. However, when the separation falls …

An emitter in the vicinity of a metal nanostructure is quenched by its decay through
nonradiative channels, leading to the belief in a zone of inactivity for emitters placed within< …

Despite showing a great promise in the field of nanomedicine, nanoparticles have gained a
significant attention from regulatory agencies regarding their possible adverse health effects …

Healing soft-tissue wounds with an irregular, complicated topography in a bleeding
environment demands the development of a dressing that is wet-adhesive, haemostatic, and …

A variety of inorganic nanoscale materials produce microscale particles with highly
corrugated geometries, but the mechanism of their formation remains unknown. Here we …

The Casimir interaction between two parallel metal plates in close proximity is usually
thought of as an attractive interaction. By coating one object with a low–refractive index thin …
