  2. Microspectrometer paper published in Optica

    Members of the Crozier group, led by Jasper Cadusch, have had their article ‘Silicon microspectrometer chip based on nanostructured fishnet photodetectors with tailored responsivities’ and machine learning published in Optica. In their article they describe using “fishnet pixels” to form a microspectrometer chip and demonstrate the reconstruction of four test spectra using a two-stage supervised […]

  3. Article in Physical Review Letters

    Tim Davis and Ann Roberts,with collaborators Daniel Gomez (RMIT) and Fatima Eftekhari (MCN), have demonstrated asymmetric transfer functions in metasurfaces in research published in Physical Review Letters. The results reported set the direction for future developments of metasurfaces for optical signal processing. Full article can be found here.

  5. Review in Advanced Optical Materials

    Lukas Wesemann, Tim Davis, Jingchao Song and Ann Roberts contributed to the new review article ‘Plasmonic Near‐Complete Optical Absorption and Its Applications’ that was recently published in Advanced Optical Materials. It reports recent progress on the development of metasurfaces and thin film structures that produce strong absorption bands in the visible and longer wavelength regions […]

  6. New ACS Photonics publication

    Group members Tim Davis and Ann Roberts are co-authors on a paper published in ACS Photonics on 22 January: Plasmene Metasurface Absorbers: Electromagnetic Hot Spots and Hot Carriers. The research, led by our collaborator Daniel Gomez (RMIT University) showed that a thin sheet of a tightly packed, self-assembled, two-dimensional lattice of metal nanoparticles, called plasmene, supported […]
