Omnidirectional Ultra‐Broadband Cu/TiO2 Metasurface Absorbers for High‐Efficiency Solar Thermal Conversion and Photothermal Plasmon‐Driven Catalysis

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Metasurface shows selective solar–thermal energy conversion with high‐activity solar/laser‐driven chemistry. The breakthrough is co‐designing broadband FP‐cavity + plasmonic LSPR/SLR resonances in an ultra‐thin metamaterial so that it not only harvests the most efficient proportion of solar radiation but also suppresses mid and IR emissivity. Moreover,

Two‐Dimensional Isotropic Spatial Differentiation Through Complete Polarization Control

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
This work enables two‐dimensional isotropic spatial differentiation at planar interfaces over a wide range of incident angles by extending the output polarization from linear to elliptical. The choice of incident angle can be used to balance broader spectral response at low angles and higher edge‐detection efficiency at larger angles.

Spectral Compensation Strategy for Radical‐Induced Dye Degradation in Liquid Crystal Polymer Composites

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A spectral compensation strategy is introduced to overcome radical‐induced degradation of dichroic dyes during UV photopolymerization. By incorporating a complementary photochromic liquid‐crystalline dye, broadband optical attenuation is preserved without disrupting photopolymerization, enabling high‐contrast and durable dye‐doped liquid crystal ...

Electrohydrodynamically Driven Broadband and Color‐Shifting in Cholesteric Liquid Crystals

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Ion‐driven electrohydrodynamic effects enable dynamic photonic bandgap modulation in cholesteric liquid crystals under low‐frequency AC driving. By regulating ion‐mediated disturbance of the helical structure, this approach produces two reversible optical responses: rapid color shifting across the visible spectrum and broadband reflection spanning the ...

Energy‐Transfer‐Driven Programmable Luminescence in Bi3+‐Eu3+ Co‐Doped Na3Ca2TaO6 Phosphors Toward Multifunctional Optical Applications

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Energy transfer from broadband Bi3+ sensitizers to Eu3+ emitters enables composition‐, excitation‐, and temperature‐dependent luminescence in Na3Ca2TaO6. These controllable optical states support ratiometric thermometry and excitation‐selective, filter‐assisted information decoding in flexible phosphor–polydimethylsiloxane films, demonstrating how ...

Harnessing Ultrafast Optical Pulses for 3D Microfabrication by Selective Tweezing and Immobilization of Colloidal Particles in an Integrated System

Advanced Photonics Research, Volume 6, Issue 5, May 2025.
Microfabrication using nano‐ to micron‐sized blocks has transformative potential for next‐gen electronics, optoelectronics, and materials. Traditional methods are limited by scalability and precision. STIC, a single‐laser system for precise colloid manipulation and immobilization using femtosecond lasers, is introduced that enables efficient 3D ...

Perspective: Hollow Core Optical Fibres for Ultraviolet and Visible Wavelengths

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Hollow core optical fibres bypass material constraints that limit optical fibres at ultraviolet and visible wavelengths. However, their challenging fabrication has limited their development, and significant gains in performance remain possible. In this perspective we outline approaches to enable the next generation of fibres for shorter wavelengths ...

Photonic Time Crystals and Time‐Varying Electromagnetic Metamatter: A New Direction for Ultrafast Tunable Photonic and Microwave Materials and Devices

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Photonic time crystals (PTCs) are systems in which electromagnetic parameters are modulated periodically in time, producing momentum bandgaps via temporal scattering rather than spatial Bragg processes. This review examines the theoretical frameworks, modeling, and computational tools for time‐varying media, and summarizes experimental demonstrations ...
