Asymmetrically Nonlinear Generation of Optical Orbital Angular Momentum via Cooperation of Bragg Diffraction and Birefringent Phase Matching

Laser &Photonics Reviews, Volume 20, Issue 2, 22 January 2026.
Nonlinear orbital angular momentum (OAM) manipulation is crucial for fundamental physics and information technologies. An integrated lithium niobate platform combining Bragg diffraction and birefringent phase matching asymmetrically generates and controls second‐harmonic OAM beams, achieving a normalized conversion efficiency of 10−2 W−1 and supports a

Large range nanopositioning stage design: A three-layer and two-stage platform

Measurement, 2016
In this article, a novel two-dimensional nanopositioning platform (NanoPla) design is described. Its requirements are not only sub-micrometer accuracy for nanotechnology applications, but also long working range (XY-motion 50 mm × 50 mm). These features increase the common range operation of devices for nanotechnology issues (e.g.

Single‐Source Cyanurate Precursor for Making Manganese Carbodiimide and the Second Harmonic Generation Effect of the Intermediate Manganese Monohydrocyanurate Mn(HC3N3O3)

European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, Volume 28, Issue 36, December 15, 2025.
The thermal conversion of the single‐source precursor Mn(H2C3N3O3)2(H2O)4 reveals a sequence of new compounds. One intermediate compound is the second‐harmonic‐generation‐active Mn(HC3N3O3) (MHCY) that appears before pure Mn(CN2) is formed. Two manganese cyanurate compounds, Mn(H2C3N3O3)2(H2O)4 and Mn(H2C3N3O3)2(H2O)7 were prepared and structurally ...

Millikelvin Intracellular Nanothermometry with Nanodiamonds

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 45, December 4, 2025.
Nanothermometry in living cells is crucial for understanding heat diffusion and advancing cellular biology and drug discovery. Previous studies have reported controversial intracellular temperature variations. Using nanodiamond nanothermometry in macrophages, it is found that, in such experimental setting, apparent temperature changes are actually due ...

Design, analysis and control of a fast nanopositioning stage

2008 IEEE/ASME International Conference on Advanced Intelligent Mechatronics, 2008
We present a fast flexure-based, piezoelectric stack-actuated XY nanopositioning stage which is suitable for high-speed, accurate nanoscale positioning applications. The performance of the design are analyzed using finite-element-analysis software. Experiments demonstrate that the design has a high first resonant mode at 2.7 kHz, a low cross-coupling ...

Standalone Integrated Magnonic Devices

Advanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 40, October 9, 2025.
A standalone (not requiring external bias magnetic field) and tunable magnonic device is reported with all‐electric input and output, fully integrated on silicon (total footprint of 100 × 150 µm) and 3–8 GHz frequency band. This is achieved by monolithic integration of a CoFeB conduit with RF antennas and an assembly of NiFe and SmCo micromagnets ...
