Electrospun Wood‐Derived Biopolymers as Electrodes in Electrochemical Energy Storage Technologies

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Electrospinning transforms wood‐derived cellulose and lignin into architecturally defined, binder‐free carbon electrodes with tuneable porosity and functionality. This review shows how fibre design enables decoupled charge and mass transport, enhancing performance across battery systems, while identifying key challenges in spinnability, scalability ...

Brillouin-enhanced four-wave mixing with optical chiral states

APL Photonics
Brillouin-enhanced four-wave mixing (BE-FWM)—also known as Brillouin dynamic gratings—is an important nonlinear effect in photonics that couples four light waves by traveling acoustic waves. The effect has received much attention in the past few decades,

Phase sensitive amplification enabled by coherent population trapping

New Journal of Physics, 2018
We isolate a novel four-wave mixing process, enabled by coherent population trapping (CPT), leading to efficient phase sensitive amplification. This process is permitted by the exploitation of two transitions starting from the same twofold degenerate ...

Widely Tunable Fiber Optical Parametric Oscillators With Idler Removal Filter

IEEE Photonics Journal, 2017
The properties of the singly resonant and double-pass pump fiber optical parametric oscillators (FOPO) are experimentally investigated. An idler removal filter is utilized to eliminate the idler component in a Fabry–Pérot cavity to minimize

Tuning Redox Dynamics in Cu‐Based Electrocatalysts: Effect of Secondary Metals

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Advanced analysis of operando X‐ray absorption spectroscopy data reveals that secondary metals affect the redox processes in Cu‐based catalysts for electrocatalytic CO2 reduction. This influences the amount of oxides formed under pulsed reaction conditions and the distribution of reaction products.
