Active Formation of Friedrich–Wintgen Bound States in the Continuum in a Hybrid Plasmonic–Photonic Structure

Advanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.
A method is proposed for actively generating Friedrich–Wintgen bound state in the continuum (FW BIC) in a hybrid plasmonic–photonic structure near the commercially important communication wavelength. In addition, interactions between dark and bright modes can further form the FW BIC and support electromagnetically induced transparency‐like with maximum

RiskOracle: A Minute-level Citywide Traffic Accident Forecasting Framework [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Real-time traffic accident forecasting is increasingly important for public safety and urban management (e.g., real-time safe route planning and emergency response deployment). Previous works on accident forecasting are often performed on hour levels, utilizing existed neural networks with static region-wise correlations taken into account. However, it

Tumor Microenvironment Triggered In Situ Coagulation of Supramolecularly Engineered Platelets for Precise Tumor Embolization

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Occlusion of tumor blood vessels represents a promising yet challenging approach in cancer treatment. Herein, supramolecularly engineered platelets conjugated with morphology‐transformable nanoparticles is developed for precise tumor embolization. The engineered platelets actively accumulate at tumor sites following induced blood vessel injury.
