Coated silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have recently become a topic of interest due to the fact that they have several applications such as in electronic, antimicrobial, industrial, optical …
A disordered photonic medium is one in which scatterers are distributed randomly. Light entering such media experiences multiple scattering events, resulting in a “random walk” …

Colloidal-based random lasers (RLs) are highly efficient and have been exploited in a wide range of geometries. However, in the particular case of ethanol solutions of rhodamines and …
Anderson localization of light and random lasing in this critical regime is an open research frontier, which besides being a basic research topic could also lead to important …
Aqueous colloidal silver nanoparticles have substantial potential in biological application as markers and antibacterial agents and in surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy …
We study the light–matter coupling by Raman scattering in colloidal suspensions composed by core–shell TiO2@ Silica (Rutile@ Silica) nanoparticles suspended in ethanol and water …
Ordered photonic structures (photonic crystals) have seen increasing interest in recent years due to their potential applications, which depend on fabrication technologies suitable for …
This paper reports the synthesis of silver nanoparticles coated with porous silica (Ag@ Silica NPs) using an assisted laser ablation method. This method is a chemical synthesis where …
Silica aerogel is a lightweight material, well known for its good mechanical and thermal characteristics, but its optical properties have received less attention, because it is weakly …
