Toward Fully Soft and Multifunctional Shape Sensing via Optical Waveguide Arrays
This work develops a sheet made with arrays of soft optical fibers that can reconstruct its 3D surface shape. Synergy of the waveguides’ responses to bending and pressing force allows shape reconstruction with resilience to damage. Applied onto surfaces of robotic or living systems, our design can be implemented in virtual reality, teleoperation ...

Low‐Threshold Red Lasing in Diketopyrrolopyrrole‐Based Organic Semiconductor Films
Low‐threshold organic semiconductor lasers (OSLs) in the red region are achieved using diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) derivatives (DPA‐DPPMe and HMAT‐d‐DPP). Molecular design enables precise control of radiative‐decay and molecular orientation, suppressing optical losses and enhancing gain.

We computationally investigate the mechanical, electronic, and optical properties of strained GeSn microdisks on silicon substrates. By combining photo‐elasticity, strain‐dependent band‐structure calculations, and optical mode analysis, we study how strain distribution, structural configuration, and temperature affect the electronic band structure and ...

Strain‐Tunable Photoluminescence From Ge Quantum Dots on Si Nanotips for CMOS‐Compatible Photonics
This work studies strain in Ge quantum dots grown on Si nanotips using photoluminescence, X‐ray diffraction, and band structure calculations. It shows how emission changes with dot size, evaluates strain in the dot and substrate, and explains the role of direct and indirect transitions in the optical behavior.
