One of the primary advantages of nanoscale sensors is that they often can provide conceptually new ways of performing sensing that are not feasible with their large-scale analogs. For example, the small size of nanoscale sensor elements, such as plasmonic

Millimeter sized arrays of uniformly-distributed nanopores (180-220 nm) were created in thin (200 nm) silicon nitride membranes using interferometric lithography. Molecular transport properties of the fabricated devices were investigated experimentally and compared with those of state-of-the-art polycarbonate track etched membranes.

We report on strong UV third-harmonic generation from silicon nitride films and resonant waveguide gratings. We determine the absolute value of third-order susceptibility of silicon nitride at wavelength of 1064 nm to be χ(³) (-3ω,ω,ω,ω) = (2.8 ± 0.6) ×

In recent years, nanopore has attracted broad attention as an essential technique for DNA sequencing and nanoparticle sensing. This work presented a fundamental study of nanoparticle translocation through silicon nitride nanopores. Since particles with rather high charge to mass ratio

We demonstrate that almost 100% of incident photons can interact with a monolayer of scatterers in a symmetrical environment. Nearly perfect optical extinction through free-standing transparent nanorod arrays has been measured. The sharp spectral opacity window, in the form of
