Study of tapered microfibers by line-field confocal optical coherence tomography
We present for the first time to our knowledge measurements of the evolution of the core and cladding diameters in tapered silica microfibers using LC-OCT. The results could help refine models of propagation of optical modes in tapers.

Self-seeding of a gain-switched integrated dual-laser source for the generation of highly wavelength-tunable picosecond optical pulses [PDF]
The authors demonstrate the generation of nearly transform-limited optical pulses that are wavelength tunable over almost 50 nm. The wide tuning range is obtained by self-seeding a gain-switched source containing two Fabry-Perot lasers, and employing a ...

Mode splitting in meta‐waveguide microring resonators (MWMRs) effectively suppresses baseline drift and measurement noise while maintaining high refractive‐index sensitivity. This reflection‐induced mode splitting strategy enables quantitative detection of ultra‐weak surface perturbations and establishes MWMRs as a robust, drift‐immune platform for ...

Pre-existing anti-drug antibodies in Fabry disease show less affinity for pegunigalsidase alfa
We analyzed the cross-reactivity of anti-drug antibodies (ADAs) against agalsidase-alfa and -beta from 49 patients with Fabry disease (FD) against the novel PEGylated enzyme pegunigalsidase-alfa (PRX-102).

Impedance‐Matched High‐Overtone Thickness‐Shear Bulk Acoustic Resonators With Scalable Mode Volume
A bottom‐electrode‐free high‐overtone bulk acoustic resonator is achieved by lateral excitation of antisymmetric thickness‐shear modes on a lithium‐niobate‐on‐silicon platform. Planar electrode geometry eliminates conventional loading along the resonance path and confines acoustic energy within the electrode gap.

Plasmonic interferences of two-particle N00N states
Quantum plasmonics lies at the intersection between nanophotonics and quantum optics. Genuine quantum effects can be observed with non-classical states such as Fock states and with entangled states.

A Case of Fabry Cardiomyopathy [PDF]
In the absence of hypertension, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is the most common cause of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). However, it has been reported that up to 3% of males with unexplained LVH have Fabry disease, an X-linked disorder of glycophospholipid metabolism that is due to a deficiency in the lysosomal enzyme alpha-galactosidase A (alpha ...

Photonic‐Enabled Energy‐Efficient Transparent Neuromorphic Computing Devices: A Review
Transparent photonic neuromorphic computing devices merge optics and brain‐inspired computing to overcome von Neumann bottlenecks with ultrafast, low‐energy processing. By exploiting transparent oxides, 2D materials, phase‐change materials, and hybrid heterostructures, these platforms enable photonic synapses, memory, and logic for see‐through edge ...
