Fluorophores are chemical compounds or molecules that absorb light energy at one wavelength and re-emit it as light at a ...

Controlling a molecule is not always simple. For instance, the precise arrangement of electrons in an organic molecule determines the wavelengths of light it can absorb; this can be challenging to ...

Researchers have made a discovery that changes what we know about light and materials. They found that engineered achiral (symmetric) materials, called achiral plasmonic metasurfaces, can absorb light ...

Highly enhanced UV absorption and light emission of monolayer WS2 through hybridization with Ti2N MXene quantum dots and g-C3N4 quantum dots This work represents a significant advancement in the field ...

Researchers at The Education University of Hong Kong (EdUHK) have contributed to a study revealing that conventional theories on the structure of black carbon particles—such as those emitted by ...
