TL;DR: In this article, a long-range surface plasmon propagation with net positive gain over macroscopic distances is directly observed, provided by an optically pumped layer of fluorescent conjugated polymer that is adjacent to the metal waveguide surface.

TL;DR: In this paper, a direct experimental comparison of the sensitivity and figure of merit of biosensors based either on surface plasmon polaritons on metal layers or on Bloch surface waves on one dimensional photonic crystals was conducted.

TL;DR: In this paper, the orientation distribution of the emissive sites in a phosphorescent organic LED has been measured utilizing two independent optical methods, and the authors find a clearly nonisotropic, predominantly parallel emitter orientation in the well-known triplet emitting guest-host system of Ir(MDQ) 2 (acac) blended in an α-NPD matrix.

TL;DR: In this paper, a general method to quantify the amounts of parallel and perpendicular emissive sites in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) was proposed and demonstrated.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors experimentally demonstrate propagation of surface plasmon polaritons in the near-IR window lambda (1.45 microm, 1.59 microm) at the interface of indium-tin-oxide films with different thicknesses deposited on glass.
