Wavefront shaping for glare reduction
Scattering of light by random media limits many optical imaging and sensing applications, either by scrambling waves that carry images or by generating glare—background noise that hinders detection. In recent years, it was shown that the shaping of the wavefront of light before it enters the scattering environment allows an unexpected degree of control

The mantis shrimp telson reveals how ridged biological shields control deformation under impact. Inspired by this architecture, telson‐inspired ridged curved shells transform ridge geometry and macroscopic curvature into bidirectional snap‐through, tunable stiffness, and enhanced hysteretic energy dissipation for multifunctional architected materials ...

Printed negative‐dielectric‐anisotropy liquid‐crystal droplets enable multidimensional full‐vectorial optical‐field sensing across polarization, phase, and wavelength, while also generating tunable skyrmionic‐like complex optical fields. ABSTRACT Adaptive manipulation of vectorial optical fields is important for optical metrology, imaging, and ...

Moiré‐Induced Symmetry Breaking of Charge Order in van der Waals Heterostructures
A uniaxial moiré potential in misfit (MS)1+δTaS2 heterostructures selectively reshape charge order: the embedded 1H‐TaS2 layer hosts an incommensurate charge‐density wave, fragmented into nanometer domains and stripped of threefold symmetry. Superconductivity, however, remains uniform and fully gapped, revealing heterosymmetry stacking as a selective ...

Wood‐Derived Nanocellulose‐Biocarbon Fresnel‐Zone Plate Lenses for Sub‐THz Frequency Applications
Wood‐derived nanocellulose and lignin‐based biocarbon were combined to fabricate fully bio‐based Fresnel zone plate (FZP) lenses for sub‐terahertz frequencies. These sustainable FZP lenses exhibit low dielectric loss and high directivity, achieving performance comparable to that of metallic references, and remain functional under environmental stress ...

Programmable Pneumatic Actuator System for a Bioinspired Artificial Colon
A modular soft robotic colon simulator driven by programmable pneumatic actuation is developed to mimic physiological and pathological‐like motility patterns of the large intestine. Finite element–guided design and distributed control enable anatomically realistic deformation for peristalsis, segmentation, and mass movements, supporting capsule ...

Limiting the incident NA for efficient wavefront shaping through thin anisotropic scattering media [PDF]
Wave front shaping holds great potential for high-resolution imaging or light delivery either through or deep inside living tissue. However, one of the biggest barriers that must be overcome to unleash the full potential of wavefront shaping for ...

Liquid‐Crystal‐Based Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface for 7 GHz Mobile Communication
The glass‐based liquid‐crystal reconfigurable intelligent surface (LC‐RIS) integrates active‐matrix driving and blind‐greedy phase optimization within a 5G‐NR OFDM framework. This enables continuously tunable and autonomous enhancement of wireless coverage. Leveraging the transparency and manufacturability of liquid crystal panels, it is ideally suited

Unlocking Terahertz Steganography: Authentication of Hidden Images in Flexible Media
Hidden information in multilayered devices, such as steganographic portraits, is detected and authenticated using reflection‐mode terahertz time‐domain imaging. Image reconstruction relies on a dedicated figure‐of‐merit obtained by integrating the signal intensity over the time‐window associated with the reflection from the metallic mirror backing the ...
