All-optical 160 Gbit/s RZ data retiming system incorporating a pulse shaping fibre Bragg grating
We characterize a 160Gbit/s retimer based on flat-topped pulses shaped using a superstructured fibre Bragg grating. The benefits of using shaped rather than conventional pulse forms in terms of timing jitter reduction are confirmed by bit-error-rate ...

An in situ optical microfiber sensor capable of real‐time decoupling of photothermal and photoelectronic effects in photoelectrochemical reactions is presented. The approach utilizes highly sensitive modal interference to dynamically capture localized thermo‐optic signals from photothermal materials, thereby enabling quantitative discrimination of ...

Beyond Imperfect Match: Silicon/Graphite Hybrid Anodes for High‐Energy–Density Lithium‐Ion Batteries
Silicon/graphite (Si/Gr) hybrid anodes are limited by Si's large volume change and mismatch with Gr. This review offers mechanistic insights into imperfectly matched Si/Gr hybrid anodes, elucidating heterogeneous lithiation behavior and interfacial failure pathways, and thereby informing the design of durable, high‐energy–density lithium‐ion batteries.
