Visible Octave Frequency Combs in Silicon Nitride Nanophotonic Waveguides Driven by Ti:Sapphire Lasers

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Chip‐based frequency combs are usually pumped from telecom wavelengths, far from the visible. This work instead pumps close to the visible with a Ti:sapphire laser ‐ the source behind the original optical frequency combs and now becoming chip‐integrable‐ and lets silicon‐nitride waveguides convert it into efficient, octave‐spanning visible‐to‐infrared ...

Side‐DBR Guided Exciton‐Polariton Lasing With Near‐Field Mode Imaging in an InGaN Thin‐Film Ridge Waveguide

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Room‐temperature lower‐polariton‐like lasing is realized in an InGaN/GaN thin‐film ridge cavity with lateral distributed Bragg reflectors. Near‐field optical microscopy distinguishes the transverse side‐DBR‐confined mode from a longitudinal photon‐like mode, while simulations reproduce their spatial profiles.

Enhanced Actuation Stability of Liquid Crystal Elastomer Actuators With Diels–Alder Dynamic Bonds

Small, EarlyView.
By leveraging furan substitution, enhanced thermal stability during actuation of liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) with Diels–Alder dynamic (DA) bonds was achieved. This work demonstrates that 3‐substituted furan broadens the actuation window of LCEs with DA bonds and enables superior thermomechanical stability and cycling performance at elevated ...

Hydrothermal‐Assisted In Situ Intercalation Synthesis of Ti3C2Tx MXene in 6 Hours

Small Methods, EarlyView.
This work presents a rapid, scalable strategy for synthesizing Ti3C2Tx MXene through hydrothermal‐assisted etching with in situ intercalation, achieving complete synthesis and delamination within 6 h at 90°C. The process accelerates aluminum removal, promotes efficient delamination, and enables direct exfoliation under mild conditions, producing high ...

Evaluation of prestress losses in concrete beams using destructive and non‐destructive methods

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Over the past few decades, prestressing techniques have become essential in the construction of key structures, infrastructure, and bridges. The serviceability and safety of prestressed concrete (PC) elements are closely tied to the effectiveness of the prestressing process.

A Dual‐Frequency Sensitivity Model for Optical Fibre Ultrasonic Sensors in Power Transformer Partial Discharge Detection

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The detection of partial discharges (PD) on the power transformer tank demands higher sensitivity in ultrasonic detection. To target the detection frequency band for sensor optimisation and enhance sensitivity, this paper presents a dual‐frequency sensitivity model for optical fibre ultrasonic sensors.

Wavefront sensing at a high‐repetition‐rate X‐ray free‐electron laser

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
We demonstrate a fast, robust and sensor‐free approach to X‐ray speckle tracking that enables shot‐to‐shot wavefront characterization at high‐repetition‐rate X‐ray free‐electron lasers. Our measurements reveal a hierarchy of wavefront fluctuations indicative of instabilities in the accelerator and beamline optics at the European XFEL.Wavefront ...
