Summary: By using a 4 nm gap plasmonic nano-finger array, a reliable and repeatable plasmon-resonant photocatalyst for CO2RR to generate higher-order hydrocarbons is demonstrated. The study also reveals that the wavelength of laser irradiation significantly affects the production of formic acid and acetic acid, which is related to the strength of localized electric fields.

Summary: Photonic topological states connected with far-field degrees of freedom have been extensively studied. The emergence of higher-order topological insulators offers new paradigms to localize or transport light in extended dimensionalities. In this study, polarization-orthogonal second-order topological corner states were observed on a designer-plasmonic kagome metasurface in the far field. The phenomenon relies on the projection of far-field polarizations to intrinsic parity degrees of freedom and the parity splitting of plasmonic corner states.

Summary: This study investigates the topological properties of a Kagome plasmonic metasurface, demonstrating the support for an obstructed atomic limit phase and characterizing the hierarchy of topological boundary modes hosted by a subwavelength array of plasmonic nanoparticles. It also showcases the properties of these modes, such as robust light confinement at subwavelength scales, and shows the selective excitation of delocalized corner modes in a topological cavity through nonzero orbital angular momentum beam excitation.

Summary: This paper presents a quantum theory for the high-order above-threshold ionization (HATI) of atoms in a coherent superposition of bound states under the influence of a strong laser field. Numerical results demonstrate the strong dependence of photoelectron spectra and momentum distributions on the relative phase of states in the prepared coherent superposition. Furthermore, the study shows that the carrier-envelope phase of a resonant ionizing pulse for long pulses can be determined by analyzing the strong-field ionization from a coherent superposition of states.

Summary: Near-infrared plasmonic lasers play a crucial role in developing sustainable nanoscale optoelectronic circuitry. The research team designed an efficient plasmonic laser that works in the near-IR region as both surface- and edge-emitting laser with a collimated far-field beam pattern. By using 2D metal nanohole arrays or grooves, they achieved collimation and focusing of the far-field beam patterns for both surface and edge emissions. The optimized collimator successfully produced a narrow spot of 3 degrees x 4 degrees for edge emission.

Summary: The introduction of a hollow plasmonic structure led to enhanced surface plasmon-coupled emission (SPCE), resulting in significant fluorescence signal enhancements. This was primarily attributed to the unique hot-spot plasmonic structure between GNS and gold substrate, the intense electromagnetic field of GNSs, and the strong coupling interactions between fluorescence and surface plasmons.

Summary: Dispersing pentagonal gold bipyramids in nematic liquid crystals allows for narrow and controlled polarization-dependent surface plasmon resonance spectra, with easy electric switching. The bipyramids orient with their C-5 rotation symmetry axes along the nematic director, showing spatially homogeneous density in aligned samples. Topological solitons enable spatial reorganization of the nanoparticles based on elastic free energy density within their micrometer-scale structures.

Summary: The interplay between light and matter at the nanoscale can be enhanced by Bloch surface plasmon polariton (Bloch-SPP) on the plasmonic lattice. An Ag nanohole array arranged in a hexagonal formation acted as an optical cavity to achieve directional and polarized amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) of R6G molecules. A 100-fold enhancement of ASE was observed at a 15-degree emission angle under TM polarization when the pump power density exceeded a threshold of 198 W/cm2 based on degenerated high state density modes. Additionally, the Bloch-SPP modes modulated a specific polarization dependence of ASE, with the degree of polarization increasing from 1.3 to 2.1 when the pump power density exceeded the ASE threshold. This work elucidates the interaction between gain media and plasmonic systems, providing a foundation for the design of plasmonic devices.

Summary: This study tailored rolling circle amplification (RCA) for affinity biosensors relying on optical probing with confined surface plasmon field. By combining surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and surface plasmon-enhanced fluorescence (PEF) methods, the impact of long RCA-generated single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) chains on sensor response enhancement was investigated. The reported RCA implementation improved the limit of detection (LOD) for model target analyte, showing enhancement in sensor response and potential for single-molecule detection.
