Surface-response functions are one of the most promising routes for bridging the gap between fully quantum-mechanical calculations and phenomenological models in quantum nanoplasmonics. Among all currently available reci...

Water availability is one of the main limiting factors that control ecosystem functions and productivity in semiarid regions. Vegetation of these regions usually presents a patchy distribution where sparse plant cover is...

In recent years, new functionality and unprecedented wavefront control has been enabled by the introduction of bianisotropic metasurfaces. A bianisotropic metasurface is characterized by an electric response, a magnetic ...

Nanostructures supporting optical modes known as Tamm plasmon-polaritons are a new class of optical devices with promising characteristics for sensing applications. Their synthesis involves the deposition of a thin metal...

Smart chromatic materials with optical transmittances that can be modified by light scattering upon external stimuli are attracting extensive interest because of their appealing applications in smart windows, privacy pro...

Cancer has gained much attention because of slow development of advanced diagnostics and therapeutic strategies. So far, conventional procedures like surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy are only available options...

The tight relationship between root architecture and uptake capacity of soil water and minerals, is well established. Support roots, generally long-lived, perform support functions such as transportation and food storage...

Parity-Time (PT$\mathcal{P}\mathcal{T}$) symmetry has become an important concept in the design of synthetic optical materials, with exotic functionalities such as unidirectional transport and nonreciprocal reflection. A...
