GeSn Quantum Wells for Room‐Temperature Mid‐Infrared Lasing on Si and on Insulator Platforms
Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.This work demonstrates a high‐performance GeSn‐on‐Insulator (GeSnOI) platform achieving laser emission up to room temperature. By utilizing Group IV GeSn quantum well heterostructures, we successfully reached a target wavelength of 3.3 µm. This advancement paves the way for fully integrated Mid‐IR photonic CMOS‐compatible sources, overcoming the ...

Optical Manipulation of Whispering Gallery Mode Microlasers for Controlled Cellular Delivery
Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.Optically trapped whispering‑gallery microlasers are precisely positioned onto non‐phagocytic mammalian cells to report local refractive‑index changes in real time. Time‑dependent wavelength shifts reveal successive stages from membrane contact to internalization.

Red‐Sensitive Photopolymerizable Glass for Fabrication of Holographic Optical Elements
Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.This study presents a novel photopolymerizable glass capable of optical patterning using red‐wavelength laser exposure. Red‐light sensitivity was achieved through the incorporation of a photoinitiating system composed of methylene blue (MB) and N‐phenylglycine (NPG).

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.The particle with high surface hydrophilicity exhibits strong thermophoretic attraction, as its dense hydration layer enhances the role of interfacial water molecules in determining thermophoretic mobility over other ionic effects. This finding elucidates the mechanism underlying the robust thermophoretic accumulation of Escherichia coli in high ...

Single‐Layer Cholesteric Liquid Crystal Polymer Films With Visible Broadband Reflection
Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.A single‐layer spin‐coated cholesteric liquid crystal polymer film exhibiting broadband reflection across the visible spectrum is demonstrated. By controlling photopolymerization‐induced pitch‐gradient formation, the film achieves low‐scattering broadband reflection, circular polarization selectivity, and compatibility with photolithographic patterning
