Real-Time Imaging of Plasmonic Concentric Circular Gratings Fabricated by Lens–Axicon Laser Interference Lithography
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Concentric circular gratings are diffractive optical elements useful for polarization-independent applications in photonics and plasmonics. They are usually fabricated using a low-throughput and expensive electron beam lithography technique. In this paper, concentric circular gratings with selectable pitch values were successfully manufactured on thin films of azobenzene molecular glass using a novel laser interference lithography technique utilizing Bessel beams generated by a combined lens-axicon configuration. This innovative approach offers enhanced scalability and a simplified manufacturing process on larger surface areas compared to the previously reported techniques. Furthermore, the plasmonic characteristics of these concentric circular gratings were investigated using conventional spectrometric techniques after transferring the nanostructured patterns from azobenzene to transparent gold/epoxy thin films. In addition, the real-time imaging of surface plasmon resonance colors transmitted from the concentric circular gratings was obtained using a 45-megapixel digital camera. The results demonstrated a strong correlation between the real-time photographic technique and the spectroscopy measurements, validating the efficacy and accuracy of this approach for the colorimetric studying of surface plasmon resonance responses in thin film photonics.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
