Responsive photonic bandgap materials, more commonly known as responsive photonic crystals, which can remotely change their structural colors in response to the external stimuli, have important applications in areas such as color displays, biological and chemical sensors, inks and paints, or many optically active components. Despite the development of different types of colloidal responsive photonic systems, wide use of these systems in practical applications is hampered by low fabrication efficiency, limited tunability of the band gap, a slow response to the external stimuli, and difficulty of integration into existing photonic systems. Through the magnetic assembly route, we attempted to develop new types of responsive photonic nanostructures with improved fabrication efficiency, rapid response, and wide tunability of the band gap. We have demonstrated the rapid assembly of superparamagnetic colloidal particles into various photonic nanostructures. We have also demonstrated that an external magnetic field can be used as an effective stimulus to manipulate the photonic properties of the self-assembled nanostructures by affecting the lattice constant, the orientation, or the crystal structures. As there are many more choices for nonmagnetic colloidal particles with uniform size and optimal refractive index, it would be advantageous to extend this magnetic assembly strategy to nonmagnetic particles. We have demonstrated the use of nanocrystal-based ferrofluids to direct the assembly of nonmagnetic colloidal particles into photonic crystal structures. The process is general, efficient, convenient, and scalable and thus represents a new and practical platform for the fabrication of colloidal crystal-based photonic devices. We have also developed a universal strategy that allows convenient magnetically-driven assembly of general objects in defined locations with high spatial resolution. The process involves immersing a polymer relief pattern in a uniformly magnetized ferrofluid, which modulates the local magnetic fields around the pattern. Nonmagnetic target objects dispersed in the same ferrofluid can then be magnetically assembled at positions defined by the polymer pattern. As the nonmagnetic polymer patterns can be conveniently fabricated at low cost, our method provides a general yet very effective means to assemble a wide range of nanoscale objects, paving the way towards patterning functional microstructures.

This comprehensive text collects the progress made in recent years in the fabrication, processing, and performance of organic nanophotonic materials and devices. The first part of the book addresses photonic nanofabrications in a chapter on multiphoton processes in nanofabrication and microscopy imaging. The second part of the book is focused on nanoscale light sources for integrated nanophotonic circuits, and is composed of three chapters on organic nano/microcavities, organic laser materials, and polymer light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs). The third part is focused on the interactions between light and matter and consists in three chapters, including the propagation of light in organic nanostructures and photoswitches based on nonlinear optical polymer photonic crystals and photoresponsive molecules, respectively. The final chapter of this book introduces the integration of miniaturized photonic devices and circuits with various organic nanophotonic elements. The practical case studies demonstrate how the latest applications actually work, while tables throughout the book summarize key information and diagrams and figures help readers to grasp complex concepts and designs. The references at the end of each chapter can be used as the gateway to the relevant literature in the field. Moreover, this book helps researchers to advance their own investigations to develop the next generation of miniaturized devices for information processing, efficient energy conversion, and highly accurate sensing.

Assuming no mathematical or chemistry knowledge, this book introduces complete beginners to the field of petroleum engineering. Written in a straightforward style, the author takes a practical approach to the subject avoiding complex mathematics to achieve a text that is robust without being intimidating. Covering traditional petroleum engineering topics, readers of this book will learn about the formation and characteristics of petroleum reservoirs, the chemical properties of petroleum, the processes involved in the exploitation of reservoirs, post-extraction processing, industrial safety, and the long-term outlook for the oil and gas production. The descriptions and discussions are informed by considering the production histories of several fields including the Ekofisk field in the North Sea, the Wyburn Field in Canada, the Manifa Field in Saudi Arabia and the Wilmington Field off the Californian Coast. The factors leading up to the well blowouts on board the Deepwater Horizon in the Gulf of Mexico and in the Mantara Field in the Timor Sea are also examined.
