Single‐Photon Emitters in Thickness‐Controlled hBN Directly Grown on Silicon Platform

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Direct, catalyst‐free CVD growth produces thickness‐controlled hBN films on SiO2/Si without transfer. Growth temperature, film thickness, and carbon incorporation tune the density and single‐photon fraction of defect emitters while preserving the hBN lattice structure.

Molecular Appendix Adjusted Architectural Propagations of Red‐Light Controlled Macroscopic Photoactuating Performances

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Amphiphilic chloroazobenzenes, bearing different amino acids as end groups alanine, phenylalanine, and valine, exhibit excellent photoisomerizations. Varying structures of three amino acid groups participate in supramolecular formations and therefore photoinduced morphological transformations via adjusting intermolecular interactions. These interaction

Applicability evaluation of the stress-optic law in Newtonian fluids toward stress field measurements

Physical Review Research, 2020
A novel rheoscopic fluid displaying coloration due to flow-induced birefringence is investigated through laboratory experiments to ascertain if it satisfies the stress-optic law in fluids in direct stress field measurements of Newtonian fluids.

Helix Alignment, Chevrons, and Edge Dislocations in Twist‐Bend Ferroelectric Nematics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The recently discovered twist‐bend ferroelectric nematic (NTBF) is the new member of the multiferroic family, representing a fluid with an oblique helicoidal (heliconical) periodic structure of spontaneous electric polarization. The work presents a thorough exploration of the material properties of this phase, how the periodic modulation of ...

Repetition rate difference, stability and polarization extinction ratio of single-cavity polarization-multiplexed fiber laser with weak birefringence

Results in Physics
We investigated a stable single-cavity polarization-multiplexed ring fiber laser with weak birefringence. The feasibility of the weak intrinsic residual birefringence to induce polarization-multiplexed pulses with low repetition rate difference under ...

Design and test of a novel accelerometer made-up of an optical-fiber embedded within a polymer resin

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2015
This paper presents a transducer for an optical-fiber accelerometer based on a polarization analysis. The transducer is made up of a fiber section embedded within a resin placed between two metallic pieces.

In Situ Genetic Engineering Facilitates MMP‐9‐Responsive TIMP1 Release Through Proteolytic Cleavage to Boost Diabetic Wound Healing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops an MMP‐9‐responsive protein release system that transforms resident cells into drug depots through in situ genetic engineering. Anchored to the membrane, the therapeutic protein TIMP1 is selectively released upon MMP‐9 cleavage.

Examination of flow birefringence induced by the shear components along the optical axis using a parallel-plate-type rheometer

Scientific Reports
In this study, the concept of rheo-optics was applied to explore the flow birefringence induced by the stress components along the camera’s optical axis since it is often overlooked in the traditional theories of photoelastic flow measurement.
