Article Abstract
We report the transmission characteristics of infrared hollow fiber with multi- AgI and SiO(2) inner-coating layers in the mid-infrared region. A three-dielectric-layer hollow glass fiber with a SiO(2)-AgI-SiO(2)-Ag structure was fabricated and low-loss property was obtained in the mid-infrared region. The SiO(2) films were coated by use of the liquid-phase coating method and a semi-inorganic polymer was used as the coating material. For deposition of the AgI film between the two SiO(2) films, a silver film was first plated by use of the silver mirror reaction method. Then the iodination process was conducted to turn the silver layer into silver iodide. A calculation method was also developed to estimate the film thickness of dielectric layers in each fabrication step according to the position of loss peaks in the measured loss spectra. Good agreement between calculated and measured loss spectra was demonstrated by taking into consideration material dispersion and surface roughness of inner-coating films.

Chronic periodontitis, a frequent complication of diabetes, is exacerbated by bacterial biofilms that drive progressive periodontal tissue destruction and systemic inflammation. Conventional treatments, utilizing mechanical debridement and systemic antibiotics, often fail to eradicate bacterial biofilms, promote antibiotic resistance, and lack real-time monitoring, leading to suboptimal therapeutic outcomes. Herein, we report a separable bilayer microneedle (MN) patch that enables localized, antibiotic-free, biofilm-targeted therapy and in situ biomarker-based monitoring for the integrated management of chronic periodontitis.

Electromagnetic scattering control of optical windows has significant challenges in improving optical transmission and compatibility, especially for multispectral and large-angle incidences, due to material and structure mismatches. This paper presents trans-scale hierarchical metasurfaces (THM) to achieve wide-angle optical transmission enhancement and electromagnetic scattering-compatible regulation in dual-band lasers, and infrared and microwave ranges. THM comprises an ultrafine hollow metal array (UHMA) and a transmission-enhanced micro-nanocone array (TMCA).

Two models of meibum and the TFLL are proposed. The first model is based on a reanalysis of x-ray studies which show the predominance of 11 nm thick lamellae above 30 °C, but below 30 °C, 5 nm thick lamellae predominate. By analogy to skin lipid, we denote these the long (LPP) and short period phase (SPP), respectively.

We demonstrate a chip-integrated emission spectrometer capable of retrieving the temperature of the light sources. It consists of a single photon detector with low dark counts and a sweeping on-chip filter with 2 pm spectral resolution in the visible and near-infrared regimes. With wildfire sensing applications in mind, we test our system with a hollow cathode lamp to simulate the K-line emission, and show how the models of Doppler and collision broadening in the plasma can be used for temperature retrieval.

Multi-spectral optoacoustic microscopy (MS-OAM) requires high-performance light sources capable of delivering multiple intense spectral lines precisely matched to the absorption characteristics of selected biomolecules. We present a gas-filled anti-resonant hollow-core fiber (ARHCF) laser source optimized for near-infrared (NIR) MS-OAM. The hydrogen (H)-filled ARHCF laser emits multiple spectral lines with high pulse energy and narrow linewidths (<0.
