India, Jan. 28 -- The Government of India issued the following news release:
In a major stride forward for nanoscience, researchers have uncovered a groundbreaking phenomenon -- electron confinement-induced plasmonic breakdown in metals.
This study opens new avenues for understanding and manipulating the fundamental behaviour of electrons in nanoscale systems which can help design more efficient nanoelectronic devices and optoelectronic materials with enhanced precision, sensors that operate at atomic and molecular levels as well as efficient nano catalysts.
Metals have long been celebrated for their plasmonic properties-collective oscillations of free electrons that enable unique optical responses. From catalysis to advanced photonic de...
