Bimetallic PtNi Octahedral Alloy Nanoparticles as Broadband Nonlinear Optical Modulators for Ultrafast Photonics (Advanced Optical Materials 4/2026)
Abstract
PtNi Nonlinear Photonics PtNi octahedral alloy nanoparticles, oil-phase synthesized, depict an alloyed platform for nonlinear photonics. Near-infrared multiwavelength Q-switched operation is realized in 1-, 1.5-, and 2-µm bands with PtNi saturable absorbers. First principles calculations identify surface ferromagnetic Ni as the major absorption center, enabling the enhanced nonlinear response and broadband ultrafast modulation.
