An innovative hybrid passive cooler integrates a porous radiative coating and an atmospheric moisture‐harvesting hydrogel within a melamine sponge skeleton, synergizing radiative cooling, sensible‐heat absorption, and latent‐heat evaporation. It maintains an average 8.3°C sub‐ambient cooling under sunlight and a maximum ∼42.4°C drop under 2000 W·m−2 ...

Unveiling a Near‐Total Rear Passivation for High Performance of Ultra‐Thin ACIGS
Ultra‐thin solar cells of (Ag,Cu)(In,Ga)Se2 (ACIGS) suffer from rear interface recombination, limiting their performance. To tackle it, a full coverage plasma enhanced chemically vapor‐deposited 8 nm porous SiOx passivation layer was implemented and evaluated. It is shown that a combination of the near‐complete passivation from silica and the formation

Subcell Treatment of Sloped Interfaces between Debye Materials in the FDTD Method
This paper presents the application of the subcell technique for the treatment of sloped interface in finite-difference time-domain method. The technique is based on the averaging of permittivities in each cell crossed by the material interface.

Direct-Splitting-Based CN-FDTD for Modeling 2D Material Nanostructure Problems
Incorporating a truncation of the complex-frequency-shifted perfectly matched layer (CFS-PML), the direct-splitting- based Crank-Nicolson finite-difference time-domain (CNDS-FDTD) is developed and applied to the infrared two-dimensional layered material (

Cavity‐Enhanced Eye‐Readable Detection of 0.1% H2 via Active Modulation of Charge‐Transfer Plasmons
A cavity‐structured nanoparticle sensor is developed for highly sensitive, eye‐readable hydrogen detection. Its excellent colorimetric response arises from a hydrogen‐induced charge‐transfer mechanism: reduction of the dielectric oxide shell in H2 triggers a transition from the plasmonic gap mode to the charge‐transfer plasmon mode.

Electromagnetic modelling of a monolithic pulse reshaper based on a photonic crystal waveguide integrated with a SOA [PDF]
Finite difference time domain (FDTD) and finite element (FE) frequency domain methods are used to study the propagation of arbitrary chirped pulses in photonic crystal (PhC) waveguide.

Niobium nitride (NbN) broadband plasmonic metasurface absorbers provide an efficient platform for solar‐energy conversion through hot‐carrier injection. Quasi‐epitaxial NbN features a low work function of 4.0 eV, reducing the interfacial injection barrier and facilitating charge transfer into adjacent photocatalysts.

Error between unconditionally stable FDTD methods and conventional FDTD method
Both the ADI-FDTD method and the CN-FDTD method can be viewed as approximate factorisation of the conventional FDTD scheme, so the error between these methods and the conventional FDTD method is obtained. It is shown that the error is associated with the time step size, the permittivity and the permeability of the medium, and the spatial variation rate

Twin‐Lever Multifunctional Meta‐Optics With High Longitudinal Tolerance
We introduce a single‐layer, CMOS‐compatible metasurface that allows for polarization‐programmable, achromatic broadband dual‐mode imaging with high longitudinal tolerance. The twin‐lever design combines bright‐field focusing and vortex‐based edge‐enhanced imaging while managing axial intensity distribution from 488 to 633 nm.
