RCS reduction of wide-band, high-gain antenna array based on asymmetric transmission metasurfaces

Scientific Reports
In this paper, an ultra-wideband stealth antenna with high gain on the basis of asymmetric transmission metasurface (ATMS) is proposed. ATMS can convert an incident y-polarised sphere wave into an x-polarised plane wave at the front side and controls the

Azobenzene's Cross‐Scale Optics and Photonics: Molecular Photoswitching, Mesoscopic Material Motions, and Adaptive Devices

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Azobenzene photoswitches translate molecular‐scale E/Z photoisomerization into macroscopic material responses and device‐level photonic functions. This Review highlights how azobenzene research has evolved from molecular photochemistry to photoalignment, mass migration, photomechanics, and heat release, ultimately enabling holography, reconfigurable ...

A Sequential Markov Probabilistic Aggregation Algorithm for Causal Emergence in Markov Aggregation

Entropy
Causal emergence (CE) is a phenomenon in which macrodynamics provide better effective information (EI) than microdynamics. The CE is widely used as the objective function in Markov aggregation. The existing works focus on deterministic aggregation, which

Wearable Morphology‐Adaptive in‐Ear Device With Active Cleansing Capability for Multimodal Health Monitoring

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
We present SCIENCE, an in‐ear multimodal physiological monitor featuring two key innovations. Water‐triggered morphological expansion (a 2‐mm cylinder to a 9‐mm spindle) achieves conformal adaptation across complex canal geometries. Simultaneously, active biofouling mitigation disrupts cerumen barriers, reducing sensor‐skin impedance by 20%.
