Pointlike Material Accumulation and Displacement in Azopolymer Thin Films Driven by Spatial Light Modulation

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A maskless, SLM‐driven approach enables the deterministic inscription of arbitrary topographical features in azopolymer films by mapping complex vectorial light fields onto local viscoplastic stress. This platform allows for the rapid generation and dynamic erasure of high‐aspect‐ratio micro‐spikes, offering a versatile tool for reconfigurable flat ...

The SDSS-V Local Volume Mapper Telescope System

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
This paper presents the Local Volume Mapper (LVM) telescope system. LVM is one of three surveys that form the fifth generation of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-V), and it employs a coordinated network of four, 16 cm diameter telescopes feeding ...

Laser guide stars and turbulence profiling for extremely large telescopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The next generation of ground based telescopes, the so-called extremely large telescopes, will offer a significant leap in sensitivity and resolution compared to current telescopes. They also present a range of technical challenges.

From Rigid to Soft Robotic Approaches for Neuroendoscopy

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robotic assistance has had minimal impact on deep intraventricular surgeries, where small‐scale, precision, and reduced invasiveness can contribute to improved patient outcomes. Emerging technologies in rigid, soft, and hybrid robotics are reviewed to identify the most promising mechanisms for deep brain navigation in addition to an attempt to identify

The Subtle Crisis: Public Domain Genomes and the Ethics of Translational Infrastructure. [PDF]

open access: yesEthics Hum Res
ABSTRACT Public domain human genomic resources are infrastructure: tools researchers use to ask basic biological questions whose answers are then translated into products and care. Translational science now asks them to support an expanding set of tasks, including clinical variant interpretation for diverse populations, pharmacogenomic prescribing ...

All‐spherical telescope with extremely wide field of view [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, 2016
AbstractAn all‐spherical catadioptic telescope with the angular field of view of several tens of degrees in diameter and spherical focal surface is proposed for the monitoring of large sky areas. We provide a few examples of such a system with the apertures up to 800 mm and the field of view 30° and 40° in diameter.

Mezzocielo: An attempt to redesign the concept of wide field telescopes

open access: yes, 2020
Mezzocielo (or "half of the sky") is a concept for a new class of telescopes where a full spherical optical surface is made by filling with a liquid a structure built up with spherical lenses and almost covering an entire sphere. Lenses of the same class
