Light-Addressable Smart Nanostructures via Resonant Nanoheating
Victor Tabouillot, Douglas Murad, Rahul Kumar +8
Selective spatial control of chemical reactions at the level of individual nanostructures remains a significant challenge. We introduce a light-activated system that combines plasm…
Meta-Diastereomers Hierarchical Multiscale Chiral Interactions Between Biomolecules and Nanoscale Enantiomers
Dominic J. P. Koyroytsaltis-McQuire, Rahul Kumar, Shailendra K. Chaubey +5
We introduce meta-diastereomers, hybrid systems where molecular chirality (\,nm) and nanoscale chirality (\,nm) combine to create a new hierarchical chiral state wit…
Tuning Dipolar and Multipolar Resonances of Chiral Silicon Nanostructures for Control of Near field Superchirality
Dominic J. P. Koyroytsaltis-McQuire, Rahul Kumar, Tamas Javorfi +3
Chiral materials display a property called optical activity, which is the capability to interact differentially with left and right circularly polarised light. This leads to the ab…
Attomole enantiomeric discrimination of small molecules using an achiral SERS reporter and chiral plasmonics
Shailendra K Chaubeya, Rahul Kumar, Paula Laborda +6
Biologically important molecules span a size range from very large biomacromolecules, such as proteins to small metabolite molecules. Consequently, spectroscopic techniques which c…
