Nanostructured Optical Superabsorbers from Carbon Nanotube Forest for Heat Management Using Environmental Blackbody Radiation from the Visible to Mid‐Infrared

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Our computational model of the optical absorption from multiwalled carbon nanotubes suggests the optical absorption depends strongly on the in‐plane electrical conductivity, and weakly on the through‐plane conductivity. Such strong absorption enables solar‐to‐thermal conversion for heat scavenging in cold climates and radiative cooling in hot climates,

Simulation‐Driven Optimization of a Borosilicate/Al/Al2O3/Graphene Multilayer SPR Sensor for Aqueous Detection of Metal Ions and Their Binary Mixtures

open access: yesElectron, EarlyView.
A cost‐effective surface plasmon resonance sensor using a borosilicate prism, 60 nm aluminum, an optimized 8–10 nm Al2O3 spacer, and graphene oxide achieves up to 338(°)/RIU sensitivity with narrow linewidth, enabling reliable detection and discrimination of Hg(II), Pb(II), Zn(II), and their binary mixtures in water.

Revealing the Resonant Physics of Open Photonic Time Crystals

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Photonic time crystals (PTCs) are media whose permittivity is modulated periodically in time, enabling momentum bandgaps and parametric amplification of light. Their realization at the nanoscale can revolutionize the study of light‐matter interactions.

Invariance Properties and Measurement of Correlation Between Two Propagating or Evanescent Waves

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
This work analyses the strength of correlation between two propagating or evanescent plane waves generally expressed in different frames. Interferometric and nanoscattering‐based methods, respectively, are demonstrated for their measurement. The results show that the applied measure of correlation remains invariant under unitary polarization ...

Advances in Floating Solar Desalination Systems

open access: yesWater and Environment Journal, EarlyView.
This review critically classifies floating solar desalination systems into five main categories and compares their thermal performance, productivity and technological limitations. Membrane‐based and multieffect systems showed the highest efficiencies, while traditional designs remain limited by heat losses and scaling.

Detailed Shallow Shear Velocity Structure in the Nankai Trough From Ambient Noise Differential Adjoint Tomography: Implications for Earthquake Generation Mechanisms

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Seismic and aseismic slip has been reported in the Nankai Trough. In this study we apply ambient noise differential adjoint tomography to obtain a high‐resolution S‐wave velocity (Vs) model in the Nankai Trough. The Vs in the very shallow imbricate thrust zone is higher than that on both the seaward and landward sides.

Planar Super‐Oscillation Diffractive Lenses: Practical Developments and Applications

open access: yesNanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 16, 26 August 2026.
This review examines planar super‐oscillation diffractive lenses as a unified framework for super‐oscillatory lenses and supercritical lenses. It focuses on applications in super‐resolution imaging, micro/nanofabrication, and precision measurement and relates their application‐specific requirements to focal‐field control, multiobjective design ...

Knife-edge diffraction of scalar and vector vortex light

open access: yesAPL Photonics
Various methods have been introduced to measure the orbital angular momentum (OAM) of light, from fork holograms to Dove prism interferometers, from tilted lenses to triangular apertures—each with its own benefits and limitations.

Compact Snapshot Hyperspectral Imaging With Neural Dispersion‐Engineered Metalens

open access: yesNanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 15, 13 August 2026.
A dispersion‐engineered metalens, designed via an end‐to‐end deep learning framework, encodes spectral information through wavelength‐dependent PSF shifts. Fabricated by two‐photon grayscale lithography, the ultrathin device demonstrates outstanding spatial‐spectral reconstruction in both indoor and outdoor scenes, positioning it as a promising ...

Full‐Stokes Polarimetry Metasurface‐Enabled Single‐Shot Measurement of the Spin Hall Effect of Light

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, Volume 14, Issue 30, 14 August 2026.
This study presents a metasurface‐enabled approach to measure the spin Hall effect of light in a single‐shot. The metasurface splits a reflected light into six polarization‐dependent focal spots, allowing all Stokes parameters to be obtained from single image.
