Multifunctional Metasurfaces for Bridging Terahertz Waves in Free Space and Waveguides
A multifunctional terahertz metasurface capable of simultaneous orthogonal polarization conversion and phase modulation is integrated onto a dielectric slab waveguide, thereby enabling efficient free‐space‐to‐guided‐wave coupling. By implementing tailored phase gradients on the metasurface, we demonstrate the formation of a focused spot within the ...

Abstract The study of morphological evolution is fundamentally tied to ontogeny, yet studies of these heterochronic processes in the fossil record are rare. Fossils belonging to an ontogenetic series are difficult to assign to an ontogenetic stage due to inconsistent proxies for skeletal ages, challenging to taxonomically assign due to morphological ...

Aluminum‐enhanced afterburning renders AE explosives more hazardous than conventional ones. Corrugated steel linings reduce far‐field AE blast overpressure by ~50% through wave reflection and dissipation. The developed model accurately predicts peak pressure (<10% error) and arrival time (<3% error), supporting protective design.

Advancing wavefront sensing: meta Shack-Hartmann sensor enhances phase imaging
A meta-lens array-based Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor has been developed to break the limits imposed by the size and curvature of traditional micro-lenses, which significantly improves both sampling density and angular resolution of phase measurement ...

Optimization of Iterative Control Algorithms for High-Resolution Adaptive Optics Systems
As the number of wavefront sensor subapertures and deformable mirror actuators in adaptive optics systems increases, the computational time of the direct gradient wavefront control algorithm is excessively long, which is a major factor affecting the ...

Bio‐inspired nanophotonics: Structural color, chirality, and resonance metasurfaces
A butterfly‐wing‐inspired anisotropic plasmonic flatband resonant metasurface. Insets, photo of the butterfly, Sasakia charonda, and the SEM image of its wing scale (above); the SEM image of the metasurface (below). Abstract The dazzling colors of butterfly wings and hummingbird feathers are not painted with pigments, but crafted by nature's invisible ...

Inverse Design of Mirror‐Symmetric Disordered Systems for Broadband Perfect Transmission
This work introduces an inverse design approach to achieve broadband perfect wave transmission in mirror‐symmetric disordered media. Leveraging symmetry simplifies optimization and enables control of multiple reflectionless states. Experiments in microwave waveguides confirm the design of exceptional points, bandpass filters, and broadband quasi ...
