Abstract: Provided are a method of detecting a target molecule and a composition for detecting a target molecule, the composition including an aptamer that recognizes a target region of a target molecule and the method using the aptamer as a template for a polymerase chain reaction (PCR).

Abstract: A multi-stack graphene structure includes a graphene stack that includes graphene layers including amorphous graphene and thin film dielectric layers. The graphene layers include amorphous graphene. The graphene layers and the thin dielectric layers are alternately stacked on one another. The multi-stack graphene structure also includes an electric field former configured to apply an electric field to the graphene layers.

Abstract: An apparatus for analyzing light includes an input aperture for receiving light; a first set of one or more lenses configured to relay light from the input aperture; and a prism assembly configured to disperse light from the first set of one or more lenses. The prism assembly includes a plurality of prisms that includes a first prism, a second prism that is distinct from the first prism, and a third prism that is distinct from the first prism and the second prism. The first prism is mechanically coupled with the second prism and the second prism is mechanically coupled with the third prism. The apparatus also includes a second set of one or more lenses configured to focus the dispersed light from the prism assembly; and an array detector configured for converting the light from the second set of one or more lenses to electrical signals.

Abstract: An optical device and an optical system including the optical device are provided. The optical device may include a reflective layer and a plurality of nano-beams spaced apart from the reflective layer. The plurality of nano-beams may be formed as a metasurface. The nano-beams may have a pattern structure having a plurality of metasurface forms, and the distance of the gaps between the plurality of nano-beams and the reflective layer may be adjustable individually or as a whole. The optical device may be a beam steering device or an optical phase modulator.
