Ultrahigh sensitive detection of tau protein as Alzheimer's biomarker via microfluidics and nanofunctionalized optical fiber sensors
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative illnesses displaying the highest death rate in the elderly. However, the existing AD diagnostic system remains elusive due to lack of a technology that ... -
Optomagnonics in dispersive media: magnon-photon coupling enhancement at the epsilon-near-zero frequency
Reaching strong light-matter coupling in solid-state systems has long been pursued for the implementation of scalable quantum devices. Here, we put forward a system based on a magnetized epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) medium, and ... -
