Controlling the Center of Mass Motion of Levitated Particles Using Structured Wavefronts
Optically levitated particles have great potential for quantum‐enhanced sensing. Precise control of the trapping beam is crucial to improve the stability and confinement of these systems. Here, we study how structured wavefronts can be used to control the center‐of‐mass motion of levitated particles, enhancing trap stiffness and enabling stable ...

An etchless lithium niobate (LN) metasurface with a slanted periodic TiO2 grating enables efficient and narrowband second‐harmonic generation (SHG) thanks to the light confinement in the LN film granted by quasi‐bound‐state‐in‐the‐continuum (q‐BIC) modes.

Parallel Multi‐Target Detection for Quantum LiDAR
Parallel multi‐target detection is achieved in quantum LiDAR with a single‐pixel quantum readout. Direction and distance information are extracted together, allowing multiple objects to be distinguished under noisy low‐light conditions and pointing to a new strategy for scan‐free quantum remote sensing.

Generating Helical Polymorphic Beams Using Dielectric Metasurfaces
Helix‐shaped polymorphic beams are optical fields whose intensity maxima spiral around the propagation axis, enabling particle manipulation through attractive or repulsive forces. Traditionally requiring expensive spatial light modulators, metasurfaces now provide a compact, cost‐effective alternative. This work demonstrates general helical polymorphic

Lonely and Sick: The Role of Social Media in Consumer Practices of Relief
ABSTRACT Loneliness is increasingly recognized as a major mental health concern, yet the role of social media in alleviating it remains poorly understood. This study asks how social media help consumers cope with loneliness amid chronic illness. Focusing on women living with endometriosis, an under‐recognized and often stigmatized condition marked by ...

Voice and Speech in Atypical Parkinsonian Disorders
Background Motor speech disorders are early, common, and functionally limiting features of atypical parkinsonian disorders (APDs) such as progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), corticobasal syndrome (CBS), and multiple system atrophy (MSA). These impairments are underrecognized and undertreated in neurology clinics.

ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming synthetic chemistry from task‐specific predictors into integrated platforms that unify retrosynthesis, reaction optimization, and closed‐loop robotic automation. This review highlights how AI‐assisted planning and robotic execution shorten cycle times, reduce step counts, and improve route ...
