Does the Scaling Relation Depend on Metallicity? Insights from 3D Convection Simulations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Solar-like oscillations have been detected in thousands of stars thanks to modern space missions. These oscillations have been used to measure stellar masses and ages, which have been widely applied in Galactic archeology.

A Dual‐Emissive DNA‐Templated Silver Nanocluster with Near‐Infrared I and II Emission

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, Volume 13, Issue 8, March 13, 2025.
This study presents a dual‐emissive DNA‐stabilized silver nanocluster with a nanosecond‐lived NIR‐I emission band and a microsecond‐lived NIR‐II emission band. Mass spectrometry establishes that the nanocluster has molecular formula (DNA)2[Ag17]11+. DNA sequence variations reveal critical nucleobases for stabilization, and modifications at the DNA 5 ...

Could Edible Photonic Structures Be an Alternative to Traditional Food Coloring?

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
What if color in food came from photonic structures? This perspective introduces structural color as a potential next‐generation solution to replace conventional colorants in foods. It discusses edible photonic materials, their unique benefits, and the technological, safety, and consumer acceptance challenges that must be addressed to bring this ...

Phase Topology Stability of an Optical Vortex via an Electrically Controlled Twist‐Planar Oriented Liquid Crystal Fresnel Lens

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A simple and efficient method for determining the stability of optical vortices via Fourier transform using a conventional spherical lens is presented. The theoretical and experimental results demonstrate a practical approach to directly and unambiguously measure the magnitude and sign of the topological charge of a beam without altering an ...

Seeking Spectroscopic Binaries with Data-driven Models

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Data-driven stellar classification has a long and important history in astronomy, dating as far back as Annie Jump Cannon’s “by-eye” classifications of stars into spectral types, still used today.

Improved Disorder Resilience in Small‐Footprint Photonic Cavities with Periodicity Breaking

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Compact photonic crystal cavities with engineered aperiodicity are demonstrated to sustain high quality factormodes and enhanced reproducibility within a minimal footprint. Combining numerical optimization and near‐field measurements, the study reveals how controlled periodicity breaking improves disorder resilience, offering a robust and scalable ...

Ferroelectric Fluids for Nonlinear Photonics: Evaluation of Temperature Dependence of Second‐Order Susceptibilities

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Nonlinear optical susceptibilities of five different materials that exhibit the ferroelectric nematic phase, as well as smectic A ferroelectric phase, are determined. The materials investigated include archetypal molecular architectures as well as mixtures showing room‐temperature ferroelectric phases.

Ultrabroadband Excitation of Hot Carriers in Plasmonic Nanorods Revealed by Two‐Dimensional Electronic Spectroscopy

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
This work dissects the ultrafast response of polydisperse plasmonic nanorods using two‐dimensional electronic spectroscopy, uniquely combining temporal and spectral resolution. Our ultrabroadband pulses cover both transverse and longitudinal nanorods’ resonances, revealing sub‐200‐fs dynamics and distinct broadening mechanisms.

Broad Observational Perspectives Achieved by the Accreting White Dwarf Sciences in the XMM-Newton and Chandra Eras

open access: yesUniverse
Accreting white dwarf binaries (AWDs) comprise cataclysmic variables (CVs), symbiotics, AM CVns, and other related systems that host a primary white dwarf (WD) accreting from a main sequence or evolved companion star.
