Journal Article
Gou, J., Shen, T., Bao, P., Ramos Angulo, J., & Evans, S. (2021). A Stokes polarimetric light microscopy view of liquid crystal droplets. Scientific reports, 11(1), 16329. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-021-95674-4

The optical characteristics of materials, such as their magnetooptical effects, birefringence, optical activities, linear and circular dichroism, are probed via the polarisation states of light transmitted through or reflected from the specimens. As... Read More about A Stokes polarimetric light microscopy view of liquid crystal droplets.

A stable nanoPAA-ZnO/ZnCl2 composite with variable 3D structured morphology and sustained superhydrophilicity (2021)
Journal Article
Zhou, Y., Dang, Y., Wang, K., Zhao, W., Zhang, C., Jiao, Y., …Shen, T. (2021). A stable nanoPAA-ZnO/ZnCl2 composite with variable 3D structured morphology and sustained superhydrophilicity. Langmuir, 37(18), 5457-5463. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.langmuir.0c03257

A ZnO/ZnCl2 composite with stable 3D structural morphologies and long lasting superhydrophilicity was synthesized on the top surface of a nano porous anodic alumina (nanoPAA) substrate. The wettability of a nanoPAA-ZnO/ZnCl2 was systematically charac... Read More about A stable nanoPAA-ZnO/ZnCl2 composite with variable 3D structured morphology and sustained superhydrophilicity.

A study of the polarimetric characteristics of planar chiral mesoscopic structures (2021)
Thesis
Alzahrani, H. (2021). A study of the polarimetric characteristics of planar chiral mesoscopic structures. (Thesis). University of Salford

It has been shown previously that chiral materials can rotate the direction of incident polarized light. This work focuses on a new way of investigating the polarized response of chiral metamaterial structures and nanoparticles. In the theoretical pa...

Stokes polarimetric imaging and applications to novel materials (2021)
Thesis
Gou, J. Stokes polarimetric imaging and applications to novel materials. (Thesis). University of Salford

In this thesis, a dual photo elastic modulator-based Stokes polarimetric method for polarization measurement is described, which forms the basis of the operation of a prototype polarimetric microscope. The operational characteristics of the microscop... Read More about Stokes polarimetric imaging and applications to novel materials.
