TL;DR: The number of modes sustained in the PNS system, as well as, the near-field distribution can be tailored by the dielectric media in PNSs.

TL;DR: In this paper, a plasmonic perfect absorber (PPA) based on metal nanorod arrays with the connected veins was proposed for ultra-sensitive refractive index (RI) sensing applications in the near-infrared region.

TL;DR: In this article, the plasmonic effect on a two-dimensional periodic array of metallic nanostructures was investigated numerically, taking into account the influences of the structural and material parameters, the rotational angle of the metal nanostructure, the number of metal nano-structures per unit cell, and localized surface resonances.

TL;DR: Simulation results show the hollow number is a key factor for enhancing the cavity plasmon resonance with respect to the hotspot region in PBNAs, indicating that the proposed hollow PBN as can be a potential candidate for plasMonic enhancers and absorbers in multifunctional opto-electronic biosensors.

TL;DR: In this paper, the active constituents of Canarium odontophyllum (COP) were investigated experimentally and theoretically for dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC) application, and three main flavonoid pigments (cyanidin, pelargonidin and maritimein) were detected in COP showing photo-energy conversion efficiencies of 1.43%, 0.87% and 0.60%, respectively.
