Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and tip-enhanced Raman scattering (TERS)
have opened a variety of exciting research fields. However, although a vast number of …

Plasmon-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (PERS), including surface-enhanced Raman
spectroscopy, shell-isolated nanoparticle-enhanced Raman spectroscopy and tip-enhanced …

The discovery of the enhancement of Raman scattering by molecules adsorbed on
nanostructured metal surfaces is a landmark in the history of spectroscopic and analytical …

Interactions between light and matter play an instrumental role in spectroscopy, sensing,
quantum information processing and lasers. In most of these applications, light is considered …

Transparent conducting films (TCFs) are a critical component in many personal electronic
devices. Transparent and conductive doped metal oxides are widely used in industry due to …

In this article, we review strong light-matter coupling at the interface of materials science,
quantum chemistry, and quantum photonics. The control of light and heat at thermodynamic …

Structural control of single‐wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) with uniform properties is
critical not only for their property modulation and functional design but also for applications …

Nanomaterials exhibit structural and functional heterogeneity among individual
nanoparticles, thus requiring a capability to study single nanoparticles. While electron …

The diversity of light-matter interactions accessible to a system is limited by the small size of
an atom relative to the wavelength of the light it emits, as well as by the small value of the …

We demonstrate, experimentally and theoretically, that the photon emission from gold
nanorods can be viewed as a Purcell effect enhanced radiative recombination of hot …
