Reciprocal Quantum Electrodynamics With Bound States in the Continuum

Nanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 9, 13 May 2026.
Quantum electrodynamics accurately describes all known forms of modern optics and photonics regarding interactions between photons and matter. In this context, bound states in the continuum with photon confinement in momentum space are envisioned to open an exciting branch called reciprocal quantum electrodynamics. It complements the cavity counterpart

Surface Passivation of HgTe Nanocrystals Enabling EG/2 Open‐Circuit Voltage and Their Coupling to Dielectric Cavity for Narrow Detection

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 26, 8 May 2026.
This article explores how the integration of a thin shell, combined with optimized surface chemistry, enables the design of photodiodes based on short‐wave infrared HgTe nanocrystals. These photodiodes achieve an open‐circuit voltage greater than half the optical bandgap, which drastically reduces dark current. The article also explores the integration

Why Autonomous Vehicles Are Not Ready Yet: A Multi‐Disciplinary Review of Problems, Attempted Solutions, and Future Directions

Journal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 2254-2341, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Personal autonomous vehicles can sense their surrounding environment, plan their route, and drive with little or no involvement of human drivers. Despite the latest technological advancements and the hopeful announcements made by leading entrepreneurs, to date no personal vehicle is approved for road circulation in a “fully” or “semi ...

Future Drought Will Lead to a Decrease in Vegetation Resilience in China

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The interactions between climate change and socioeconomic development have led to significant changes in vegetation resilience in response to drought in China. However, an understanding of the changes in vegetation resilience in response to drought events under different future scenarios (SSP126, SSP245, SSP370, and SSP585) is lacking. Drought

Tracking Water Dynamics of a Temperate Forest Under Drought and Non‐Drought Conditions Using Active and Passive Microwave and Optical Remote Sensing

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Water status, water dynamics, and ecohydrological resilience of a protected German beech forest during the 2018–2020 multi‐year drought are assessed using over six years of multi‐frequency remote sensing data, integrating active, passive, and optical sensors with varying canopy penetration depths, highlighting the importance of monitoring ...

Development and Evaluation of a Simple Geometric Radiation Absorption Model for Discontinuous Canopies With Ellipsoidal Crown Shapes

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Large‐scale canopy models utilizing satellite data typically rely on simplified models to describe radiation absorption by vegetation. However, these models' accuracy can be limited when applied to heterogeneous row‐oriented canopies because of assumptions of canopy homogeneity, or oversimplification of the impacts of heterogeneity. This study

Internal physiological drivers of leaf development in trees: Understanding the relationship between non‐structural carbohydrates and leaf phenology

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1151-1164, May 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant phenology is crucial for understanding plant growth and climate feedback. It affects canopy structure, surface albedo, and carbon and water fluxes. While the influence of environmental factors on phenology is well‐documented, the role of plant intrinsic factors ...
