Efficient structural color from pigment-loaded nanostructures
Tianqi Sai, Luis S. Froufe-Pérez, Frank Scheffold +2
Color can originate from wavelength-dependence in the absorption of pigments or the scattering of nanostructures. While synthetic colors are dominated by the former, vivid structur…
Elastic Microphase Separation Produces Robust Bicontinuous Materials
Carla Fernández-Rico, Sanjay Schreiber, Hamza Oudich +8
Bicontinuous microstructures are essential to the function of diverse natural and synthetic systems. Their synthesis has been based on two approaches: arrested phase separation or…
Enhancing the Refractive Index of Polymers with a Plant-Based Pigment
Mohammad Yasir, Tianqi Sai, Alba Sicher +4
Polymeric materials are prized for their formability, low density, and functional versatility. However, the refractive indices of common polymers fall in a relatively narrow range…
Designing Refractive Index Fluids using the Kramers-Kronig Relations
Tianqi Sai, Matthias Saba, Eric R. Dufresne +2
For a number of optical applications, it is advantageous to precisely tune the refractive index of a liquid. Here, we harness a well-established concept in optics for this purpose.…
Elastic ripening and inhibition of liquid-liquid phase separation
Kathryn A. Rosowski, Tianqi Sai, Estefania Vidal-Henriquez +3
Phase separation has recently emerged as an important organizational principle in the dense and heterogeneous environment within living cells. Here, we use a synthetic system to sh…
Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation in an Elastic Network
Robert W. Style, Tianqi Sai, Nicoló Fanelli +5
Living and engineered systems rely on the stable coexistence of two interspersed liquid phases. Yet surface tension drives their complete separation. Here we show that stable dropl…
Observation of a Large Photo-response in a Single Nanowire (Diameter ~30 nm) of Charge Transfer Complex Cu:TCNQ
Rabaya Basori, Kaustuv Das, T. Phanindra. Sai +3
We report for the first time large photoresponse in a single NW of the charge transfer complex Cu:TCNQ. We fabricate a metal-semiconductor-metal device with a single NW and focus i…
