The ability to control and modulate the interaction of light with matter is crucial to achieve
desired optical properties including reflection, transmission, and selective polarization …

Optical metamaterials are artificially engineered architectures that exhibit desired optical
properties not found in nature. Bespoke design requires the ability to define shape, size …

Materials providing broadband light antireflection have applications as highly transparent
window coatings, military camouflage, and coatings for efficiently coupling light into solar …

The nanophotonic engineering of light–matter interactions has profoundly changed research
behind the design and fabrication of optical materials and devices. Metasurfaces—arrays of …

Nanostructured surfaces are common in nature and exhibit properties such as antireflectivity
(moth eyes), self-cleaning (lotus leaf), iridescent colors (butterfly wings), and water …

To meet the increasing demand for patterning smaller feature sizes, a lithography technique
is required with the ability to pattern sub-20 nm features. While top-down photolithography is …

Herein, we report anti-reflective and high-transmittance optical films based on nanoporous
silicon dioxide (SiO 2) fabricated from templated synthesis. Amorphous mesoporous …

The cicada has transparent wings with remarkable self-cleaning properties and high
transmittance over the whole visible spectral range, which is derived from periodic conical …

RI value between the RI's of air and silicon [16] may behave as a buffer layer which relieves
the large difference of RI's for impedance matching effect in overall range of wavelength …

Plasma nanotexturing, ie plasma etching with simultaneous roughening in the nano to
micron scale, is used to create roughness on PMMA plates or glass slides coated with …
