Optical Properties of Individual Nano-Sized Gold Particle Pairs
… examines and exploits the optical properties of pairs of MNPs. Pairs of MNPs offer two further parameters not existent at single MNPs, which both affect the local optical fields in their vicinity: the distance between them, and their relative orientation with respect to the polarisation of the …

Controlling Plasmon Coupling in Biomolecule-Linked Nanoparticle Assemblies
… is investigated in biomolecule-linked nanoparticle assemblies in two-particle, small cluster, and extended network formats. The relationship between structure and optical properties is explored through comparison of measured spectra with simulated spectra calculated using structural models …

Particles Inside Particles: The Flow of Energy in Quarks, Gluons, and Jets
… of the inner structure of jets in high-energy particle collisions. We begin by introducing QCD and the scattering of partons (quarks and gluons), discussing jets as theoretical and experimental proxies for partonic physics, and presenting the partonic cascade model of jet formation and jet …

The Colloidal Glass Transition Under Confinement
… theoretical description. Here, we use colloidal particles as hard-sphere models and experimentally study particle dynamics of colloidal suspensions under different confinements near the glass transition. In three dimension (3D), we design a colloidal system, where particles are confined inside …

Development of 18F radiochemistry for positron emission particle tracking (PEPT)
Positron emission particle tracking (PEPT) is a non-invasive tracer-based measurement technique used to obtain dynamic information about multiphase systems. The basis of the technique is to radiolabel a phase-representative tracer particle with a positron emitting radionuclide. Electron-positron …

Fermionic Quantum Information in Surface Acoustic Waves
… technology, as well as being fundamental quantum particles. Using the simulations produced by my code, I track the time evolution of an electron wave function as it propagates along quantum circuits. By animating the evolution of the wave function, I am able to visualise the wave function of …

Photochemical Tuning of Surface Plasmon Resonances in Metal Nanoparticles
Illuminated metal nanoparticles (MNPs) feature collective electron oscillations (so-called localized surface plasmons or LSPs) which facilitate concentrating light-matter interactions to length scales below the diffraction limit. Part I of this book describes two applications of this confinement …
