Guiding and Manipulating Light Fields in Microstructured Liquid Crystals
Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.This review summarizes recent advances in guided‐wave optics enabled by microstructured liquid crystal (LC) devices, covering their fundamental material properties, key degree of freedom for dynamic light field manipulations. The advances of linear guided‐wave optics, nonlinear‐optics with spatial optical solitons, and microlasers in LC‐based devices ...

7000 Years of Aboriginal Mining at Sugarloaf Hill in the Riverland Region of South Australia
Archaeology in Oceania, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Silcrete and chert are commonly represented in Aboriginal archaeological lithic assemblages across large parts of the southwestern Murray‐Darling Basin (MDB). In South Australia (SA), these materials were sourced from a series of quarries located along the incised course of the Murray River through the upper Riverland region.
