Abstract Metal-organic framework (MOF), which is composed of metal ions and bridged
organic ligands, are one of the most high-profile materials currently, because their regular …

The pathway towards the realization of optical solid-state lasers was gradual and slow. After
Einstein's paper on absorption and stimulated emission of light in 1917 it took until 1960 for …

The development of integrated electronic circuitry ranks among the most disruptive and
transformative technologies of the 20th century. Even though integrated circuits are …

Polarization-dependent Raman scattering experiments realized on single GaAs nanowires
with different percentages of zinc-blende and wurtzite structure are presented. The selection …

Polarized micro-Raman spectroscopy was applied to investigate the phase composition and
transformation from the amorphous to the crystalline state, size effects, and the …

We report on investigations of the interaction of light with nanoscale antennae made from
crystalline GaP nanowires (NWs). Using Raman scattering, we have observed strong optical …

A simple but effective way to control the orientational arrangement of MoO3 nanoflakes is
presented, which offers an opportunity to investigate the anisotropic properties of different …

This paper gives an overview of theoretical and experimental results on Raman‐active
optical phonon modes confined in nearly spherical nanocrystals (NCs) of polar …

ZnO nanorods (NRs) arrays doped with a large concentration of Mn synthesized by aqueous
chemical growth and were characterized by SEM, photoluminescence, Raman scattering …

We present a noninvasive optical method to determine the local strain in individual
semiconductor nanowires. InP nanowires were intentionally bent with an atomic force …
