From Far-Field to Near-Field Micro- and Nanoparticle Optical Trapping
Optical tweezers are a very well-established technique that have developed into a standard tool for trapping and manipulating micron and submicron particles with great success in the last decades. Although the nature of light enforces restrictions on the

Why human connection is the true metric of research success
Human‐centred mentorship can be shaped by mentor attributes, actions, intrinsic drive and career ambition. Drawing on reflections across Singapore and France, as well as workshop insights from FEBS‐IUBMB ENABLE 2024, this article shows that human‐centred mentorship creates the conditions for sustainable growth, well‐being and retention in research ...

Hybrid multilevel plane wave based near-field far-field transformation utilising combined near- and far-field translations [PDF]
The radiation of large antennas and those operating at low frequencies can be determined efficiently by near-field measurement techniques and a subsequent near-field far-field transformation. Various approaches and algorithms have been researched but for

A Novel Modified Symmetric Nested Array for Mixed Far-Field and Near-Field Source Localization
In the process of locating mixed far-field and near-field sources, sparse nonlinear arrays (SNAs) can achieve larger array apertures and higher degrees of freedom compared to traditional uniform linear arrays (ULAs) with the same number of sensors.

A method for generating a microwave vortex field [PDF]
In this paper, we propose an on-end structure of a circular waveguide that forms a vortex field of the microwave range. We construct its numerical model.

Guiding AlphaFold to predict how Munc13‐1 opens Syntaxin‐1
The syntaxin‐1 Habc‐domain (orange), linker (pink) and SNARE motif (yellow) form a closed conformation that binds to Munc18‐1 (violet) and is opened by the Munc13‐1 MUN domain (cyan) to form the SNARE complex that triggers neurotransmitter release.

Far-field and beam characteristics of vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers [PDF]
We have determined the far-field patterns and beam parameters of vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) with different structures. The results show that the window diameter and the active-layer aperture of VCSELs strongly influence laser far ...

Recovering complex elastic scatterers by a single far-field pattern [PDF]
We consider the inverse scattering problem of reconstructing multiple impenetrable bodies embedded in an unbounded, homogeneous and isotropic elastic medium. The inverse problem is nonlinear and ill-posed.

Helicity-delinked manipulations on surface waves and propagating waves by metasurfaces
Although many approaches have been proposed to manipulate propagating waves (PWs) and surface waves (SWs), usually each operation needs a separate meta-device, being unfavorable for optical integrations.
