Illustration of local deformation in an isolated carbon nanotube due to the pressure applied through the apex of a nano-tip. By sensing this local deformation by means of Raman shift in TERS, the sample can be imaged with extremely high spatial resolution.

Schematic of resonant transmission through nanohole array using electron microscope image of as-fabricated sample. With applications ranging from linear and nonlinear optics to sensing and spectroscopy, nanohole arrays are promising for compact device integration. (Picture:
The ultra-low timing jitter of optical pulse trains from femtosecond mode-locked lasers can be used for the attosecond-precision generation, distribution, measurement, and synchronization of optical and microwave signals.
The cover image shows the transformation optics quality factor for several plasmonic materials. For transformation optical devices, the quality factor is inversely proportional to the plasmonic losses in the material at the crossover frequency. The crossover frequency for GZO, ITO, Ag, and AZO are 1
An artist's conception of laser tweezers Raman spectroscopy: A single laser beam is focused through a high power microscope objective to create a tight, diffraction-limited spot, which results in a single-beam optical trap powerful enough to capture and suspend cells up to 30 microns in diameter. Ph
