Third order nonlinear optical response exhibited by mono- and few-layers of WS2

TL;DR: In this paper, strong third order nonlinear optical properties exhibited by WS2 layers are presented and optical Kerr effect is identified as the dominant physical mechanism responsible for these third order optical nonlinearities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large optical birefringence by anisotropic silver nanocomposites

TL;DR: A large optical birefringence of oriented Ag nanoellipsoids embedded in silica was measured using an ellipsometric technique, allowing us to quantify the light transmission through the samples when placed and rotated between crossed and parallel polarizers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Taming the Autophagy as a Strategy for Treating COVID-19.

TL;DR: There is conclusive evidence about the substantial contribution of two concomitant factors to the development of severe COVID-19: a delayed or absent type I and III interferon (IFN-I and IFN-III) response together with robust cytokine and chemokine production.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anisotropic linear and nonlinear optical properties from anisotropy-controlled metallic nanocomposites

TL;DR: High-energy metallic ions were implanted in silica matrices, obtaining spherical-like metallic nanoparticles (NPs) after a proper thermal treatment, and these NPs were then deformed by irradiation with Si ions, obtaining an anisotropic metallic nanocomposite.
