Herbivore identity mediates the strength of trophic cascades on individual plants
Ecosphere, 2013 The strength of top‐down indirect effects of carnivores on plants (trophic cascades) varies greatly and may depend on the identity of the intermediate (herbivore) species.

Room‐Temperature Surface Exciton Polaritons in Colloidal J‐Aggregate Flakes
Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.Colloidal J‐aggregate flakes, synthesized via electrostatic assembly of cyanine molecules and a polyelectrolyte, exhibit robust excitonic properties and support surface exciton polaritons at room temperature. Their strong scattering and tunable optical response introduce a versatile, solution‐processable platform for advanced photonic and quantum ...

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.A flexible metallic metasurface sticker is placed on a dielectric metasurface to study interlayer optical coupling. A bright quadrupolar surface lattice resonance in the top layer and a dark quadrupole mode in the bottom layer hybridize into symmetric and antisymmetric modes.

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.A single‐step tunable chiral growth of Au NRs with controllable circular dichrosim (CD) response is reported, and the application of narrow CD response for biosensing with superior Figures of Merit (FoM = RIS/linewidth) over conventional extinction‐based approach in sensitivity is demonstrated.

Fisher-KPP dynamics in diffusive Rosenzweig-MacArthur and Holling-Tanner models
, 2019 We prove the existence of traveling fronts in diffusive Rosenzweig-MacArthur and Holling-Tanner population models and investigate their relation with fronts in a scalar Fisher-KPP equation. More precisely, we prove the existence of fronts in a Rosenzweig-

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This review identifies key design considerations for insect‐inspired microrobots capable of multimodal locomotion. To draw inspiration, biological and robotic strategies for moving in air, on water surfaces, and underwater are examined, along with approaches for crossing the air–water interface.
