TL;DR: This work shows the first example of analyzing preferential binding of an average-sized and biologically important protein to negative membrane curvature in a label-free manner and in real-time, illustrating a unique application for nanoplasmonic sensors.

TL;DR: An ultrathin large-area electrochromic material is presented which provides high polarization-independent reflection, strong contrast, fast response time, and long-term stability and opens up for new electronic readers and posters with ultralow power consumption.

TL;DR: Investigation of the incident photon-to-electron conversion efficiency of thin TiO2 films decorated with Au nanodisk antennas in an electrochemical circuit found that incorporation of a Au mirror beneath the semiconductor amplified the photoresponse for light with wavelength λ = 500-950 nm by a factor 2-10 compared to identical structures lacking the mirror component.

TL;DR: This work presents color-tunable metasurfaces with high chromaticity and reflectivity consisting of an aluminum mirror, a dielectric spacer, and a plasmonic nanohole array in copper, and demonstrates active modulation of the reflected intensity using an electrochromic conductive polymer deposited on top of the nanostructures by screen printing.

TL;DR: A simple and efficient thermal plasmonic sensor platform is created by letting a DC current heat plAsmonic nanohole arrays be used to determine thermodynamic parameters in addition to monitoring molecular reactions in real-time.
