Single‐Sensor Vibration Sensing in Anisotropic Composites Enabled by Disordered Metasurfaces

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work develops a single‐sensor vibration sensing (SSVS) framework that integrates disordered metasurfaces with compressive sensing. Comprehensive numerical and experimental validations demonstrate that, by manipulating anisotropic guided wave propagation through metasurfaces, the proposed SSVS framework enables high‐fidelity multi‐source vibration ...

A High-Speed, Wavelength Invariant, Single-Pixel Wavefront Sensor With a Digital Micromirror Device

IEEE Access, 2019
The wavefront measurement of a light beam is a complex task, which often requires a series of spatially resolved intensity measurements. For instance, a detector array may be used to measure the local phase gradient in the transverse plane of the unknown

Bio‐Inspired Gradient Coatings Enhance the Leading Edge Erosion Resistance of Wind Blades

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Rain‐induced erosion of the wind turbine blade leading edge poses a critical challenge to maintenance and operation. Here, we propose a bio‐inspired approach for erosion protection utilising a platelet‐reinforced polyurethane coating with a graded through‐thickness architecture.

Photonic integrated circuits for astronomy: A formal description of an integrated photonics-based wavefront sensor (IP-WFS)

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Solar wavefront sensing has been a challenge for astrophysical instrumentalists, due to the low contrast between the Sun and the sky background compared to night-time observations, which limits the performance of adaptive optics systems.

Non‐Uniform Space‐Time‐Coding Modulation for Low‐Complexity Diagnostics of Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
A diagnostic method for reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS) based on non‐uniform space‐time‐coding modulation is presented. Fault localization is achieved via amplitude‐only spectral measurements, eliminating the need for complex signal processing. A one‐to‐one mapping between harmonic components and RIS elements enables accurate detection.
