Current micro nanomechanical system are usually based on rigid crystalline semiconductors that normally have high quality factors but lack adaptive responses to variable frequencies, a capability ubiquitous for communications in the biological world, such as bat and whale calls. Here, we demonstrate a soft mechanical resonator based on a freestanding organic-inorganic hybrid plasmonic superlattice nanosheet, which can respond adaptively to either incident light intensity or wavelength. This is achieved because of strong plasmonic coupling in closely-packed nanocrystals which can efficiently concentrate and convert photons into heat. The heat causes the polymer matrix to expand, leading to a change in the nanomechanical properties of the plasmonic nanosheet. Notably, the adaptive frequency responses are also reversible and the responsive ranges are fine-tunable by adjusting the constituent nanocrystal building blocks. We believe that our plasmonic nanosheets may open a new route to design next-generation intelligent bio-mimicking opto-mechanical resonance systems.
The ability of extreme sound energy confinement with high-quality factor (Q-factor) resonance is of vital importance for acoustic devices requiring high intensity and hypersensitivity in biological ultrasonics, enhanced collimated sound emission (i.e
We show that Si MOSFETs, AlGaN/GaN HEMTs, AlGaAs/InGaAs HEMTs, and p-diamond FETs with feature sizes ranging from 20 nm to 130 nm could operate at room temperature as THz spectrometers in the frequency range from 120 GHz to 9.3 THz with different sub
In this article, a chiral plasmonic hydrogen-sensing platform using palladium-based nanohelices is demonstrated. Such 3D chiral nanostructures fabricated by nanoglancing angle deposition exhibit strong circular dichroism both experimentally and theor
One of the fundamental challenges in nanophotonics is to gain full control over nanoscale optical elements. The precise spatiotemporal arrangement determines their interactions and collective behavior. To this end, DNA nanotechnology is employed as a
A plasmonic modulator is a device that controls the amplitude or phase of propagating plasmons. In a pure plasmonic modulator, the presence or absence of a pump plasmonic wave controls the amplitude of a probe plasmonic wave through a channel. This c
