Why Methods for Optimization Problems with Time-Consuming Function Evaluations and Integer Variables Should Use Global Approximation Models [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper advocates the use of methods based on global approximation models for optimization problems with time-consuming function evaluations and integer variables.We show that methods based on local approximations may lead to the integer rounding of ...

Microwall‐Integrated Terahertz Metasurfaces for Spatially Guided Label‐Free Sensing of Micrometer‐Scale Plastic Particles

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A THz metasurface device integrating a metal–dielectric–metal resonator with microwall‐defined recessed regions enables spatially guided, label‐free sensing of micrometer‐scale plastic particles. The as‐fabricated devices exhibit distinct THz reflection resonances for 3.1‐µm polystyrene particles and a concentration‐dependent resonance‐frequency‐shift ...

Single‐Step Fabrication of Smart 3D Microstructures Exploiting Naphthopyrans as Photoinitiators and Photochromic Molecules

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Naphthopyran–benzophenone compounds can act simultaneously as photoinitiators and photochromic molecules for two‐photon polymerization. Using a single‐step process, liquid photoresist is encapsulated within polymerized 3D microstructures, preserving reversible UV–vis photochromism after fabrication.
