From Design to Fabrication: Developing a Conceptual Framework for Parametric Design in Complex Geometry Construction

JES. Journal of Engineering Sciences
Parametric design plays a major role in the manufacture of complex geometries either in architectural or fabrication procedures. This research explores the integration of parametric design as a transformative approach for attaining complex geometries to bridge the gap between design and fabrication and its significant role in architectural design and ...

Distributed Bragg Reflector Based on Plasmonic Ag: Plasma Polymer Nanocomposites

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
This paper presents a comprehensive approach for the optical design and validation of silver nanocomposite‐based Distributed Bragg Reflectors (DBRs). It describes deriving material properties (n, k) and using them to predict the performance of the deposited optical stack, as well as to characterize imperfections in the DBR deposition, or even to ...

Tacotron: Towards End-to-End Speech Synthesis

, 2017
A text-to-speech synthesis system typically consists of multiple stages, such as a text analysis frontend, an acoustic model and an audio synthesis module. Building these components often requires extensive domain expertise and may contain brittle design

Infrared Colloidal Quantum Dot Edge Emitting Lasers Integrated on Silicon

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
In this work, the first monolithic integration of Pb‐chalcogenide CQDs in an edge‐emitting DFB laser cavity onto a Si/SiO2 substrate has been demonstrated. The optimizations of SiO2 layer thickness, engineering of the grating duty cycle, and implementing λ/4 phase shift resulted in the achievement of spectrally pure, single‐mode lasing at 1650 nm with ...

Thickness Dependence of Linear and Nonlinear Optical Properties of Multilayer 3R‐MoS2

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Thickness as a key design parameter for optimizing the nonlinear optical response of layered transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) materials is established. The demonstrated correlation between thickness, linear spectra, and harmonic generation efficiency provides a powerful framework for tailoring nonlinear performance.

Conformal Principal-Asymptotic Elastic Gridshells: Parametric Design and Modular Construction

Spatial gridshells are characterized by large spans, expansive interior spaces, structural efficiency, and aesthetic appeal. Among these, elastic gridshells are particularly noteworthy as they utilize the elastic deformation of components to create freeform surfaces. However, current approaches to modular design of elastic gridshells predominantly rely

An Ultra‐Wideband Metasurface Perfect Absorber Based on Hybrid Absorption Modes

Advanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.
A Ge2Sb2Te5 metasurface absorber enables polarization‐independent, ultrabroadband (UV–NIR) light absorption with high angular tolerance. Its performance stems from overlapping electric and magnetic dipole resonances in a symmetric structure, achieving 94% average absorption and maintaining 83% even at 70° incidence, promising for integrated ...

Vitamin D Regulates Olfactory Function via Dual Transcriptional and mTOR‐Dependent Translational Control of Synaptic Proteins

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Vitamin D (VitD) modulates olfactory function by remodeling dendrodendritic synapses in tufted cells through vitamin D receptor‐dependent transcriptional and translational mechanisms. VitD regulates synaptic protein translation partially via mTOR signaling.
