Multi-layered liposomes as optical resonators

Multi-layered liposomes, comprising a concentric series of lipid bilayers - separated at fixed distances and compartmentalizing aqueous solutions of alternating refractive indices - are proposed as optical Bragg resonators. Seminal work focuses on the feasibility of successive encapsulations coupled...
