Deterministic Transferable Planar Dielectric Mirrors for Investigating Strong Light–Matter Coupling

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Transferable dielectric distributed Bragg reflectors enable the deterministic assembly of high‐quality planar microcavities while maintaining the intrinsic properties of quantum materials during fabrication. The resulting structures exhibit robust exciton‐photon coupling in monolayer WS2${\rm WS}_{2}$ from cryogenic to room temperature, establishing a ...

Elimination of Necking and Aspect Ratio Dependence in Uniaxial Actuators by Continuous Fiber Reinforcement

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A novel carbon fiber reinforcement for dielectric elastomer actuators enhances actuation force while decoupling electromechanical performance from the actuator's aspect ratio. Unlike conventional fiber reinforcements, it enables a uniform planar stretch state along the entire actuator.

A Proof‐of‐Concept Assessment of a Novel Wearable Eyelid Muscle Device: A Pre‐Clinical Animal Cadaver Study for Eyelid Closure Restoration

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article introduces a soft wearable eyelid sling device incorporating a hydraulic soft artificial muscle (SAM) for achieving complete closure of an eyelid. The SAM is driven by a cam mechanism that provides a displacement profile closely matched with those of a healthy eyelid.

Laser Speckle Suppression in Augmented Reality Displays Based on Static and Low-Loss Polymer-Stabilized Liquid Crystal Screens

IEEE Photonics Journal
Laser speckle caused by high coherence severely affects the image quality. The traditional optical approaches cannot effectively suppress speckles without compromising the coherence of the laser in the optical path.
