Freestanding Nanomembrane Sensor Reads Ultranarrow Quasi-BIC Resonances Through Light Emission
Researchers developed an emission-based refractometric sensor that couples the defect-related photoluminescence of a freestanding silicon nitride nanomembrane to high-Q quasi-BIC modes. The device resolved refractive-index changes as small as ?n = 0.001 in water and achieved a figure of merit of 250, while simulations showed that its sensitivity is concentrated near the membrane surface. 11/13/2026

Researchers Tune LDH Nanofillers to Make Transparent PMMA More Resistant to Heat and UV
Researchers investigated how platelet size, organic surface modification, and loading affect MgAl- and ZnAl-LDH nanofillers dispersed in transparent PMMA through emulsion polymerization. The strongest formulations retained high visible transparency while improving thermal stability, stiffness, and UV blocking, with nanoscale dispersion and interfacial compatibility playing a larger role than intercalation level alone. 11/12/2026
