Upconversion fluorescent carbon nanodots enriched with nitrogen for light...
Fluorescent nitrogen-enriched carbon nanodots (C-dots) of 1 to 3 nm were obtained through a one-pot reaction between melamine and glycerol. These C-dots show quantum yields up to 22% and a high...
View ArticleNanostructured plasmonic medium for terahertz bandwidth all-optical switching
Periodic nanostructuring can enhance the optical nonlinearity of plasmonic metals by several orders of magnitude. By patterning a gold film, the largest sub-100 femtosecond nonlinearity is achieved,...
