Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare autoimmune disease defined by immune dysregulation, vasculopathy, and progressive fibrosis of the skin and internal organs. Despite advances in care, major complications such as interstitial lung disease (ILD) and myocardial involvement remain the leading causes of morbidity and mortality.

Guided Optical Modes in Metal-Cladded Tunable Hyperbolic Metamaterial Slab Waveguides
We have theoretically investigated metal-cladded waveguides of tunable hyperbolic metamaterial (THMM) cores, employing graphene sheets as a tunable layer, in terms of guided waves propagation over near- to mid-infrared range, following the effective ...

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials
Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

It is shown that laser ablation pretreatment under oxygen‐free conditions enables copper–aluminium bonding at significantly lower deformation degrees and improved properties compared to mechanical brushing. Laser ablation further increases interface contact area and induces favourable residual stress states and microstructural compatibility ...

Defects Inspection in Wires by Nonlinear Ultrasonic-Guided Wave Generated by Electromagnetic Sensors
Steel wires are widely used as raw materials for spring valves in engines. Considering the quality and safety issues of their structure, there is a demand to develop nondestructive inspection approaches to detect initial damages in steel.

Guided plasmons in graphene p-n junctions
Spatial separation of electrons and holes in graphene gives rise to existence of plasmon waves confined to the boundary region. Theory of such guided plasmon modes within hydrodynamics of electron-hole liquid is developed. For plasmon wavelengths smaller

Wave-guided optical waveguides
This work primarily aims to fabricate and use two photon polymerization (2PP) microstructures capable of being optically manipulated into any arbitrary orientation. We have integrated optical waveguides into the structures and therefore have freestanding waveguides, which can be positioned anywhere in the sample at any orientation using optical traps ...
