Charge-Driven Liquid-Crystalline Behavior of Ligand-Functionalized Nanorods in Apolar Solvent
Jeongmo Kim, Zijun Wang, Khalid Lahlil +3
Concentrated colloidal suspensions of nanorods often exhibit liquid-crystalline (LC) behavior. The transition to a nematic LC phase, with long-range orientational order of the part…
Vectorial probing of electric and magnetic transitions in variable optical environments and vice-versa
R. Chacon, A. Leray, J. Kim +6
We use europium doped single crystalline NaYF nanorods for probing the electric and magnetic contributions to the local density of optical states (LDOS). Reciprocically, we det…
Measuring the magnetic dipole transition of single nanorods by spectroscopy and Fourier microscopy
R. Chacon, A. Leray, J. Kim +6
Rare-earth doped nanocrystals possess optical transitions with significant either electric or magnetic dipole characters. They are of strong interest for understanding and engineer…
Hybrid KTP-plasmonic nanostructures for enhanced nonlinear optics at the nanoscale
Nicolas Chauvet, Maeliss Ethis de Corny, Mathieu Jeannin +6
The search for miniaturized components for nonlinear optical processes needs a way to overcome the efficiency loss due to the effective size reduction of the active medium. We inve…
Monitoring the orientation of rare-earth-doped nanorods for flow shear tomography
Jongwook Kim, Sebastien Michelin, Michiel Gilberts +9
Rare-earth phosphors exhibit unique luminescence polarization features originating from the anisotropic symmetry of the emitter ion's chemical environment. However, to take advanta…
Electric field induced birefringence in non-aqueous dispersions of mineral nanorods
Alexis de la Cotte, Pascal Merzeau, Jong Wook Kim +4
Lanthanum phosphate (LaPO4) nanorods dispersed in the non-aqueous solvent of ethylene glycol form a system exhibiting large intrinsic birefringence, high colloidal stability and th…
A Closer Look at the Light Induced Changes in the Visco-elastic Properties of Azobenze-Containing Polymers by Statistical Nanoindentation
Luca Sorelli, Filippo Fabbri, Jessy Frech-Baronet +7
The mechanical properties of azobenzene-containing polymer films are statistically measured by instrumented nanoindentation experiment in the dark and under illumination in the abs…
Photophysics of single nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond nanocrystals
M. Berthel, O. Mollet, G. Dantelle +3
A study of the photophysical properties of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) color centers in diamond nanocrystals of size of 50~nm or below is carried out by means of second-order time-intens…

We report an experimental study of the longitudinal relaxation time () of the electron spin associated with single nitrogen-vacancy (NV) defects hosted in nanodiamonds (ND). W…
Quantum plasmonics: second-order coherence of surface plasmons launched by quantum emitters into a metallic film
O. Mollet, S. Huant, G. Dantelle +2
We address the issue of the second-order coherence of single surface plasmons launched by a quantum source of light into extended gold films. The quantum source of light is made of…
Nanodiamond as a vector for siRNA delivery to Ewing sarcoma cells
Anna Alhaddad, Marie-Pierre Adam, Jacques Botsoa +8
We investigated the ability of diamond nanoparticles (nanodiamonds, NDs) to deliver small interfering RNA (siRNA) in Ewing sarcoma cells, in the perspective of in vivo anti-cancer…
Surface-induced charge state conversion of nitrogen-vacancy defects in nanodiamonds
