In our presentation, we will offer an overview of aperture-type scanning near field optical microscopy (SNOM) – a family of nano-optical imaging techniques derived from scanning probe microscopy which are capable of subwavelength resolution, and the development of three dimensional (3D) SNOM methods undertaken by our group to locally image the distribution of the electromagnetic radiation in...

I will present my group’s recent efforts to combine atomic ensembles with nanophotonic structures. I will describe our experiment in which photons emitted by a quantum dot embedded in a semiconductor nanowire are sent into an ensemble of laser-cooled caesium atoms confined inside a hollow-core photonic-crystal fibre to realize photon storage and single-photon wavelength conversion....

Blister formation occurs when a laser pulse is focussed through a transparent substrate onto a coated polymer thin film. A pocket of expanding vapor is formed beneath the film, which pushes the film upward locally. This process has been used for Laser-Induced Forward Transfer (LIFT) of materials. Most studies of blister formation and blister-based LIFT use linear absorption of nanosecond or...

Currently, plasmonic nanofibers doped with semiconductor quantum dots, organic dye quantum emitters (QEs), and metallic nanoparticles (MNPs) have attracted much attention due to their wide range of applications including waveguides, light-sources, and optical sensors. These nanofibers doped with QEs and MNPs have been fabricated using a variety of metals and emitters. For example, Hu et al....

Liquid-phase exfoliation (LPE) is a low-cost and scalable technique for producing a wide range of van der Waals nanomaterials that can be incorporated into existing laboratory sample and industrial material production. Liquid-phase exfoliated nanomaterials have the potential to produce devices quickly and at low-cost, with colloidal dispersions easily adaptable to existing production methods....
