An empirical investigation into the influence of demographic characteristics as foundations of cultural intelligence of chemical engineering students is addressed for the first time in this study. Following a validated cultural intelligence methodolo... Read More about Cultural intelligence of chemical engineering students: A demographics study.

On-chip plasmonic spin-Hall nanograting for simultaneously detecting phase and polarization singularities (2020)
Journal Article
Feng, F., Si, G., Min, C., Yuan, X., & Somekh, M. (2020). On-chip plasmonic spin-Hall nanograting for simultaneously detecting phase and polarization singularities. Light: Science and Applications, 9(1), https://doi.org/10.1038/s41377-020-0330-z

Phase and polarization singularities are important degrees of freedom for electromagnetic field manipulation. Detecting these singularities is essential for modern optics, but it is still a challenge, especially in integrated optical systems. In this...

Ultrastable embedded surface plasmon confocal interferometry (2014)
Journal Article
Pechprasarn, S., Zhang, B., Albutt, D., Zhang, J., & Somekh, M. (2014). Ultrastable embedded surface plasmon confocal interferometry. Light: Science and Applications, 3(7), https://doi.org/10.1038/lsa.2014.68

As disease diagnosis becomes more sophisticated, there is a requirement to measure small numbers of molecules attached to, for instance, an antibody. This requires a sensor capable not only of high sensitivity but also the ability to make measurement... Read More about Ultrastable embedded surface plasmon confocal interferometry.

Defocus leakage radiation microscopy for single shot surface plasmon measurement (2020)
Journal Article
Chow, T. W. K., Lun, D. P. K., Pechprasarn, S., & Somekh, M. G. (2020). Defocus leakage radiation microscopy for single shot surface plasmon measurement. Measurement Science and Technology, 31(7), https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6501/ab7def

Measurement of surface plasmon and surface wave propagation is important for the operation and characterization of sensors and microscope systems. One challenge is to perform these measurements both quickly and with good spatial resolution without an...

In this paper, we present a direct method to measure surface wave attenuation arising from both ohmic and coupling losses using our recently developed phase spatial light modulator (phase-SLM) based confocal surface plasmon microscope. The measuremen... Read More about Application of confocal surface wave microscope to self-calibrated attenuation coefficient measurement by Goos-Hänchen phase shift modulation.
