Programmable Anisotropic Terahertz Permittivity via High‐Aspect‐Ratio 3D‐Printed Dielectric Mesh Networks

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A 3D‐printed Terahertz (THz) anisotropic dielectric with programmable permittivity by varying infill density and creating high‐aspect‐ratio channels is presented. The proposed design was evaluated both experimentally, through THz time‐domain spectroscopy, and theoretically, through FDTD simulations and Effective Medium Theory analysis.

Coordination‐Actuated Photonic Microparticles for Recyclable, High‐Resolution Heavy Metal Sensing Via Structural Color

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A colloidal photonic sensing platform converts heavy metal coordination into vivid structural color changes. PS‐b‐P2VP microparticles with an interpenetrating polypyrrole/P2VP network exhibit cooperative metal ion binding that contracts lamellar microdomains and blue‐shifts Bragg reflections.

Gain Narrowing in Low‐Dimensional PEA:CsPbBr3: Superfluorescence versus Amplified Spontaneous Emission

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Superfluorescence is a cooperative emission process not scaling with sample volume. Amplified spontaneous emission is a collective process scaling with sample volume and is enhanced by waveguiding. Both manifest in a narrow emission peak. Choosing the right substrate suppresses waveguiding and demonstrates that the emission feature observed in PEA ...

Nanomaterial‐Incorporated Nonlinear Optical Waveguides Explored With All‐Fiber Multiphoton Polymerization

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Nonlinear waveguides are fabricated via an all‐fiber‐based multiphoton polymerization approach incorporating upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs), which enable both multiphoton absorption at telecommunication wavelengths and nonlinear saturable absorption operation.

Localized Ion Irradiation Enables Topography‐Free High‐Tc Superconducting Metamaterials

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A topography‐free oxygen ion‐irradiation strategy is demonstrated for patterning superconducting YBCO terahertz metamaterials without physical material removal. The approach preserves film integrity while enabling large spectral tunability, ultrafast optical modulation, and dual‐band resonance control, providing a scalable platform for low‐loss ...

A Low‐Cost, Handheld Optical Stiffness Sensor for Minimally Invasive Surgery

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A novel handheld stiffness sensor is presented for real‐time tissue stiffness characterization. By simultaneously sensing contact force and tissue deformation, the device enables accurate stiffness quantification without requiring precise manual control. This approach offers a promising solution for intraoperative tumor detection and minimally invasive
