Extending the Propagation Distance of a Silver Nanowire Plasmonic Waveguide with a Dielectric Multilayer Substrate

Douguo Zhang, Yifeng Xiang, Junxue Chen +9

Chemical synthesized silver nanowires have been proved to be the efficient architecture for Plasmonic waveguides, but the high propagation loss prevents their widely applications.…

All-atom simulations reveal how single point mutations promote serpin misfolding

Fang Wang, Simone Orioli, Alan Ianeselli +5

Protein misfolding is implicated in many diseases, including the serpinopathies. For the canonical inhibitory serpin α1-antitrypsin (A1AT), mutations can result in protein deficien…

Exoplanet Biosignatures: Understanding Oxygen as a Biosignature in the Context of Its Environment

Victoria S. Meadows, Christopher T. Reinhard, Giada N. Arney +13

Here we review how environmental context can be used to interpret whether O2 is a biosignature in extrasolar planetary observations. This paper builds on the overview of current bi…

Type 2 AGN host galaxies in the Chandra-COSMOS Legacy Survey: No Evidence of AGN-driven Quenching

Hyewon Suh, Francesca Civano, Guenther Hasinger +16

We investigate the star formation properties of a large sample of ~2300 X-ray-selected Type 2 Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) host galaxies out to z~3 in the Chandra COSMOS Legacy Su…

Exoplanet Biosignatures: A Framework for Their Assessment

David C. Catling, Joshua Krissansen-Totton, Nancy Y. Kiang +7

Finding life on exoplanets from telescopic observations is an ultimate goal of exoplanet science. Life produces gases and other substances, such as pigments, which can have distinc…

Exoplanet Biosignatures: A Review of Remotely Detectable Signs of Life

Edward W. Schwieterman, Nancy Y. Kiang, Mary N. Parenteau +15

In the coming years and decades, advanced space- and ground-based observatories will allow an unprecedented opportunity to probe the atmospheres and surfaces of potentially habitab…

Diffraction-Free Bloch Surface Waves

Ruxue Wang, Yong Wang, Douguo Zhang +11

In this letter, we demonstrate a novel diffraction-free Bloch surface wave (DF-BSW) sustained on all-dielectric multilayers that does not diffract after being passed through three…

Coupled Lugiato-Lefever equation for nonlinear frequency comb generation at an avoided crossing of a microresonator

Giuseppe D'Aguanno, Curtis R. Menyuk

Guided-mode coupling in a microresonator generally manifests itself through avoided crossings of the corresponding resonances. This coupling can strongly modify the resonator local…
