Article Abstract

A dynamic optical arbitrary waveform generation (O-AWG) with amplitude and phase independently controlled in optical modulators of single fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) has been proposed. This novel scheme consists of several optical modulators. In the optical modulator (O-MOD), a uniform FBG is used to filter spectral component of the input signal. The amplitude is controlled by fiber stretcher (FS) in Mach-Zehnder interference (MZI) structure through interference of two MZI arms. The phase is manipulated via the second FS in the optical modulator. This scheme is investigated by simulation. Consequently, optical pulse trains with different waveforms as well as pulse trains with nonuniform pulse intensity, pulse spacing and pulse width within each period are obtained through FSs adjustment to alter the phase shifts of signal in each O-MOD.

Dynamic micro/nano-structured surfaces play pivotal roles in biological systems and engineering applications. Despite considerable progress has been made in fabricating precisely ordered architectures, achieving controlled motion in top-down fabricated structures remain a formidable challenge. Here, we introduce an advanced dynamic micron-nano optical platform featuring hierarchical microscale wrinkles integrated with ordered nanoscale arrays.

Retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) are highly compartmentalized neurons whose long axons serve as the sole connection between the eye and the brain. In both injury and disease, RGC degeneration occurs in a similarly compartmentalized manner, with distinct molecular and cellular responses in the axonal and somatodendritic regions. The goal of this study was to establish a microfluidic-based platform to investigate RGC compartmentalization in both health and disease states.

Obesity-associated obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) highlights the need for effective therapies. Hypothalamic endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress contributes to leptin resistance in obesity. Although hesperidin (HE) modulates ER stress and oxidative pathways, its low bioavailability limits clinical use, its role in OSA is unknown.

Birefringent crystals are pivotal for modern optical modulation technologies, yet developing high-performance birefringent materials with large birefringence (Δn), wide bandgaps, and scalable synthesis remains a significant challenge. Different from the traditional planar [MQ] and distorted [MQ] (n ≥ 4) polyhedral units, a "linear-group" design strategy is proposed, targeting heavy-metal halides with [HgX] (X = halides) coordination modes to exploit their inherent polarizability anisotropy. Through systematic experimental investigations in the ternary A-Hg-X (A = Rb, Cs; X = Br, I) system, six novel Hg-based halides were synthesized.
