um actually it’s Wile E Coyote
but yeah this is some bullshit!
Am I the only one who read “lattice” and “lattices” as “lettuce” and “lettuces?”
Yes
Certainly not
In case somebody made the meme because they need that paper and couldnt get it, enjoy.
Edit: generally, you can find a ton of hard to get papers by searching the first 5 or 6 words of the title plus “pdf” , “reasearchgate”, or “arxiv” at the end of the search string
SCI HUB. Say it with me sci-hub Is it just me? Sci hub free article access ftw?
Arxiv is pretty great too, but not everything is physics.As much as I appreciate the ResearchGate mention, the paper is open-access right now on Wiley’s site. Whatever’s happening in OP’s screenshot is either some kind of technical glitch or a clerical error that has since been resolved.
Meh. My general opinion on academic publishers is such that I’d rather pirate it to avoid giving them the page view anyway. Entities that exist to gate knowledge can universally go fuck themselves
Obligatory reminder to just email the authors, they’ll give it to you for free 99% of the time
Obligatory response that this is highly dependent upon the field and your experience. Of the four authors I contacted for copies to their paper in my tenure as a child protection caseworker, none of them even replied to me let alone gave me a copy of their paper. I don’t know if it was because of the fields (psychology and social science) or because I emailed them from my .gov.au email but this advice doesn’t always hold true.
I’d definitely avoid using the gov email address. This may be another difference between my field and what you are doing, but if a .gov emailed me asking for my work I’d redirect them to my security manager, expecting it to be one of those “oops you got phished, be more careful!” type of cyber training emails. I’d also offer that you might look up the person you’re emailing; I’ve published under at least 2 different student email addresses that I no longer have access to. If you happen to know my name you’ll find my current contact info pretty quickly on google, but if you email gust@undergrad.edu that email is going straight into the void
Very true. I’ve benefited from doing that countless times, and I keep final drafts of all of my work in folders organized by publisher title explicitly so that I can pass it forward if anybody ever emails me looking for something ive written that is now behind a paywall
(I deleted my last comment because it ended up more vitriolic than I want on the internet forever, but for anybody reading this afterwards the gist of my deleted comment earlier in the thread was “I do not respect academic publishers”)
Fuck publishers, the only reason I go along is that it is necessary for my career. If I could I’d publish everything on my own website. You’re very welcome to ask me for any paper I published.
You can also email the author(s) and they’ll send it to you often times
Sci hub doesn’t have a lot of papers after 2018. Almost everything after 2024 isn’t available there.
Any other place I can get papers?
Unfortunately not, Anna’s archive has got some which are not on sci-hub, but not much more
My favorite scientific journal is SciHub
Got me through my fieldwork after grad school.
Schrödinger paper
Oh no, how will I ever know about Dramatic and Elusive Resonant Lattice Kerker Effect in the Nonlinear Response of Plasmonic Lattices now? Does anyone have a Dramatic and Elusive Resonant Lattice Kerker Effect in the Nonlinear Response of Plasmonic Lattices guy?
Been an DERLKE-NRPL guy for decades whatdda ya need to knoe
How many NRPLs can an amateur safely manage
Between 3
what about unsafely? that sounds more my style
Yeah I’m a darkly-nerple guy too, AMA.
What is a Kerker Effect and a Plasmonic Lattice? How do these things affect me in my day to day life?
Now whatcha got here is an ol fashion Plasmotic Lattice, made right here in the good ol US of A. See this model has a two-stroke Kerker-effect Hemi so heh it’s got heh a little giddyup
Then put that shit right there on layaway. I’ma take fer of 'em right meow. Yeeehaaawwww!
Can you click the pdf text above the circled portion? It might be a button.
oh so they’re just trying to trick people into signing up who don’t need to like those ads with a big download button people put on sourceforge or similar…
If that works strap me on a toad and roll me down the road
Kerker? I hardly know her!
Nice

Dramatic and Elusive Resonant Lattice Kerker Effect in the Nonlinear Response of Plasmonic Lattices
Key Points
- A plasmonic metasurface demonstrates the resonant lattice Kerker effect, suppressing reflection in a narrow spectral band through simultaneous electric dipole and lattice mode excitation.
- The effect is observed in the nonlinear optical response of periodic plasmonic structures, making it both rare and difficult to achieve experimentally.
This research describes a plasmonic metasurface that supports the resonant lattice Kerker effect, which manifests as suppressed reflection within a narrow spectral range. The suppression occurs because electric dipole and magnetic-type lattice resonances are excited simultaneously, causing their radiated fields to interfere destructively in the backward direction, per Wiley Online Library.
Background and Context
The Kerker effect, in its classical form, describes conditions under which a particle’s forward and backward scattering become asymmetric due to the interplay of electric and magnetic multipoles. The “first Kerker condition” produces zero backscattering when electric and magnetic dipole moments are equal in magnitude and phase. Achieving this in practice, particularly in plasmonic systems and at nonlinear frequencies, has proven difficult.

Periodic plasmonic arrays (lattices) add another layer of physics. Wood’s anomalies and lattice resonances can hybridize with the localized modes of individual nanostructures, producing sharp spectral features. According to ACS Nano, metal-insulator-metal sandwich nanodisks in periodic arrays create narrow, high-resonance peaks through radiation mode hybridization with Wood’s anomaly, generating vivid colors in both reflection and transmission.

The broader field of Mie-resonant metaphotonics, as reviewed in Advances in Optics and Photonics, examines how electric and magnetic multipoles govern light interaction in engineered structures, including the first and second Kerker conditions.
Nonlinear Dimension
What makes this particular result “dramatic and elusive” is that the Kerker-type interference is observed in the nonlinear response of the lattice. Nonlinear metasurfaces have been studied for second-harmonic generation and beam shaping. Work published in ACS Photonics demonstrated nonlinear beam shaping with plasmonic split-ring resonators, controlling second-harmonic wavefronts through local phase and amplitude manipulation. A more recent study in Nano Letters showed hybrid nonlinear metasurface lenses that generate and focus second-harmonic light.

Extending the lattice Kerker condition into the nonlinear regime is harder because the nonlinear polarization sources are weaker, spectrally shifted, and subject to different symmetry constraints than their linear counterparts. The paper published in Wiley’s Nanophotonics journal reports success in observing this effect experimentally.
Further Reading
The primary paper is available at Wiley Online Library and provides the full experimental and theoretical treatment. For broader context on Mie resonances and Kerker conditions in metaphotonics, the review in Advances in Optics and Photonics offers a comprehensive multipolar analysis.
