Abstract

A new ZnO–ZnWO4 eutectic composite manifests sharp and strongly polarization-dependent transmission at ≈400 nm. Such a powerful effect is due to the formation of a fine self-organized eutectic nano/microstructure that enables refractive index matching due to the proper orientation of the constituent phases. These functionalities are obtained by fabricating ZnO–ZnWO4 using a self-organization low-cost procedure, paving the way for large-scale applications, such as tunable narrow-band color filters. For further details see article number 1901617 by Dorota A. Pawlak and co-workers.
