Recently, a homogenization procedure has been proposed, based on the tight lower bounds of the Bergman-Milton formulation, and successfully applied to dilute ternary nanocomposites to predict optical data without using any fitting…
Spherical gold nanoclusters are grown by 1.8 MeV Au++ ion implantation into an amorphous silica matrix and subsequent air annealing at 873 K. Ultraviolet and visible light absorption confirms the presence of a dipolar surface plasmon peak…
Plasmonic devices, fundamental to modern nanophotonics, exploit resonant interactions between light and free electrons in metals to achieve enhanced light trapping and electromagnetic field confinement. However, modeling their complex,…
Harnessing the optical properties of noble metals down to the nanometer-scale is a key step towards fast and low-dissipative information processing. At the 10-nm length scale, metal crystallinity and patterning as well as probing of surface…
We investigate protocols for optimal molecular detection with electromechanical nanoscale sensors in ambient conditions. Our models are representative of suspended graphene nanoribbons, which due to their piezoelectric and electronic…
We present a simple closed expression for determining the condition for Coherent Perfect Absorption derived through electromagnetic wave treatment and interface boundary conditions. Apart from providing physical insight this expression can…
UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy is frequently used to characterize the size and shape of gold nanoparticles. We present a full-spectrum model that yields reliable results for the commonly encountered case of mixtures of spheres and rods in…
Material absorption is a key limitation in nanophotonic systems; however, its characterization is often obscured by scattering and diffraction loss. Here we show that nanomechanical frequency spectroscopy can be used to characterize the…
Conjugate-impedance matched superabsorbers are metamaterial bodies whose effective absorption cross section greatly exceeds their physical dimension. Such objects are able to receive radiation when it is not directly incident on their…
Perfect, broadband and asymmetric sound absorption is theoretically, numerically and experimentally reported by using subwavelength thickness panels in a transmission problem. The panels are composed of a periodic array of varying…
The frequency-dependent conductivity is studied for the one-dimensional Hubbard model, using a selection rule, the Bethe ansatz, and symmetries associated with conservation laws. For densities where the system is metallic the absorption…
The frequency-dependent conductivity is studied for both the one-dimensional Hubbard model and a model of spinless fermions, using a selection rule, the Bethe ansatz energy eigenstates, and conformal invariance. For densities where the…
Dissipation of electromagnetic energy through absorption is a fundamental process that underpins phenomena ranging from photovoltaics to photography, analytical spectroscopy, photosynthesis, and human vision. Absorption is also a dynamic…
We report the first study of the micro-SQUID response of a molecular system to electromagnetic radiation. The advantages of our micro-SQUID technique in respect to pulsed electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) techniques consist in the…
We evaluate the electric dipole absorption in small metal particles in a longitudinal electric field taking into account the Fermi-Thomas screening. When either the level broadening or the frequency of the field are larger than the mean…

The last two decades have witnessed various experiments reporting very unusual magnetic properties of ensembles of gold nanoparticles surrounded by organic ligands, including ferromagnetic, paramagnetic, or (large) diamagnetic responses.…
Assemblies of closely separated gold nanoparticles exhibit a strong collective plasmonic response due to coupling of the plasmon modes of the individual nanostructures. In the context of self-assembly of nanoparticles, closed packed 2D…
Hybrid quantum systems made of cold atoms near nanostructured surfaces are expected to open up new opportunities for the construction of quantum sensors and for quantum information. For the design of such tailored quantum systems the…
Surface plasmons with MHz-GHz energies are predicted by using milliparticles made of metamaterials that behave like metals in the radiofrequency range. In this work, the so-called Radioplasmonics is exploited to design scatterers embedded…
