Quantitative Mapping of Fibrotic Tissue Mechanics via Brillouin Spectroscopy
Brillouin spectroscopy distinguishes fibrotic from healthy tissue based on localized stiffness changes and enables real‐time monitoring of dynamic alterations in viscoelastic properties during fibrogenesis. ABSTRACT Fibrosis is a pathological scarring process that disrupts tissue architecture, and is characterized by excessive extracellular matrix (ECM)

We investigate tip‐induced bond weakening of a single alkyne center immobilized and aligned upright on Au(111) using a rigid triphenylmethane‐based tripod. By varying the tip–molecule distance, we observe shifts in the ≡C–H and –C≡C– vibrational bands via ultrahigh vacuum low‐temperature tip‐enhanced Raman scattering (TERS).

Raman Signature of the Wings of the Globe Skimmer Dragonfly: Pantala flavescens
Raman spectroscopy is used to confirm the presence of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons and related derivatives including aldehydes, halides, alcohols, acids, esters, and phenols on the wings of Pantala flavescens. The analysis indicates that wing‐surface lipid composition is largely consistent across the three main ecological zones in Ghana. Notably,

Deep‐UV Photonic Crystal Surface‐Emitting Lasers
The first deep‐UV photonic crystal surface‐emitting lasers (PCSELs) at 279 nm are demonstrated under pulsed optical pumping. The PCSELs have single‐mode emission with a 17‐pm linewidth and a divergence angle of less than 1∘$^{\circ }$. Experimental results highlight the impact of the filling factor choice on the lasing mode and the far‐field emission ...

Engineering Topological Phases with a Traveling‐Wave Spacetime Modulation
Time‐varying systems have garnered considerable attention due to their unique potential in manipulating electromagnetic waves. Here, a novel class of topological spacetime crystals with a traveling‐wave modulation is introduced. By manipulating material anisotropy, one can engineer light angular momentum and non‐trivial topological phases characterized
