Parity‐Dependent THz Harmonic Generation in Electrically Pumped Micro‐Lasers Exploiting Topological Insulator–Metamaterial Gratings

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Topological insulator–metamaterials integrated with electrically driven terahertz quantum cascade lasers enable parity‐dependent harmonic generation. Bulk‐dominated Bi2Se3 favors third‐harmonic emission at 9.96 THz, whereas topological‐surface‐state‐dominated Bi2Se3, Bi2Te3, and (Bi,Sb)2Te3 generate strong second harmonics near 6.5 THz.

Giant Anisotropic Spin Absorption in Chiral Hybrid Semiconductors

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Researchers uncover that chiral hybrid organic–inorganic semiconductors absorb spin differently depending on its polarization direction. This anisotropic spin absorption is primarily driven by the local symmetry breaking within the layered structure.

Co(II) Optical Absorption in Spinels: Infrared and Ligand-Field Spectroscopic Study of the Ionicity of the bond. Magnetic Structure and Co2+→Fe3+MMCT in Ferrites. Correlation with the Magneto-Optical Properties

Active and Passive Electronic Components, 1998
The analysis of the infrared and ligand field spectra of COM2O4 spinels reveals that the ionicity of these compounds varies in the following order aluminate > gallate > ferrite and chromite > rhodite and cobaltite.

Helicity‐Dependent All‐Optical Switching in Bi,Ga‐Substituted Rare‐Earth Iron Garnet Films Driven by Orbital Magnetic Moment

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Helicity‐dependent all‐optical magnetization switching was demonstrated for the Bi‐ and Ga‐substituted rare‐earth (R) iron garnet crystal thin films (Bi,Ga:RIG; R = Eu3+, Nd3+, and Y3+). The efficiency followed the order EIG > NIG > YIG. These results show the correlation between 4f orbital moment (4f〈L〉) of R3+ and helicity‐dependent optical ...

Coherent Absorption Reveals Colors Hidden in a Grey Fabry–Pérot Cavity

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A dielectric thin film shows colors depending on its thickness; this effect can be used to encode information normally accessible through single‐beam spectroscopy. We developed a method to conceal this kind of information, based on coating the dielectric with a matched conductor, that suppresses the color‐bearing thin‐film resonances.

Liquid Crystalline Elastomers in Soft Robotics: Assessing Promise and Limitations

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Liquid crystalline elastomers (LCEs) are programmable soft materials that undergo large, anisotropic deformation in response to external stimuli. Their molecular alignment encodes directional actuation in a monolithic structure, making them long‐standing candidates for soft robotic systems.
