Low‐index and low‐loss vdW muscovite represents an emerging robust dielectric platform for the creation of next‐generation all‐vdW nanophotonic architectures. Its utilization as a low‐index building‐block in all‐vdW multilayers enables extreme optical contrast when paired with MoS2, paving the way to the realization of few‐layer ultrathin DBS ...

Experimental demonstration of a temporal pulse shaping method based on nonlinear chirp [PDF]
We present a general temporal shaping method based on spectral phase-only modulation for ultrafast laser sources. We explain the working principle of this technique and use it experimentally to generate a ramp-shaped pulse at the output of a laser source

Estimation precision of degree of polarization in the presence of signal-dependent and additive Poisson noises [PDF]
We address precision of estimation of the degree of polarization (DOP) from the orthogonal state contrast image (OSCI) in the presence of both signal-dependent Poisson noise due to useful signal, and additive Poisson noise due to dark current and / or ...

Geometry‐Driven Whispering‐Gallery Modes in Self‐Assembled Phosphorescent Organic Microtubes
Micelles encapsulating tris(2‐phenylpyridine)iridium(III) self‐assemble into a hollow hexagonal microtube stabilized by a surface passivation layer. The hexagonal cross‐section confines circulating light along its facets, sustaining sharp whispering‐gallery resonances that guide photoluminescence emission under laser excitation.

Rouard's method as a modelling tool for the sensing characteristics of complex fibre Fabry-Perot interferometers formed between chirped fibre Bragg gratings [PDF]
Phase and spectral response characteristics of fibre Fabry-Perot interferometers (FFPI), formed between linearly chirped fibre Bragg gratings (FBG), were theoretically modelled using Rouard's method.

Micromachined Double‐Membrane Mechanically Tunable Metamaterial for Thermal Infrared Filtering
Herein, a mechanically tunable double‐layer plasmonic metamaterial leveraging the extraordinary optical transmission effect observed in subwavelength arrays of openings within thin metal layers is presented. The concept is experimentally validated by integrating the proposed metamaterial structure into an electrostatic parallel‐plate actuator to create

Endothelial Dysfunction in Fabry Disease Is Related to Glycocalyx Degradation
Fabry disease (FD) is an X-linked multisystemic lysosomal storage disease due to a deficiency of α-galactosidase A (GLA/AGAL). Progressive cellular accumulation of the AGAL substrate globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) leads to endothelial dysfunction.
