Article Abstract

We numerically analyzed the modulation characteristics of an InP organic hybrid (IOH) optical modulator consisting of an InP slot waveguide and an electro-optic (EO) polymer. Since InP has a higher electron mobility and a lower electron-induced free-carrier absorption than Si, the series resistance of an InP slot waveguide can be significantly reduced with relatively smaller optical loss than an Si slot waveguide. As a result, the trade-off between optical loss and modulation bandwidth can be remarkably improved compared with a Si organic hybrid (SOH) optical modulator. When the modulation bandwidth was designed to be 100 GHz, the optical loss of the IOH modulator was 13-fold smaller than that of the SOH one. The simulation of the eye diagram revealed that the improved optical modulation amplitude enabled the clear eye opening with a 100 Gbps non return-to-zero signal using the IOH modulator. The IOH integration is promising for a high-speed modulator with low energy consumption beyond 100 Gbps.

Outcomes of Sinus Surgery and Orbital Reconstruction in Silent Sinus Syndrome: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

J Craniofac Surg

September 2025

This study evaluates the clinical presentation, surgical management, and outcomes of silent sinus syndrome (SSS), with emphasis on the efficacy of simultaneous sinus and orbital surgery. A retrospective review was performed of 35 patients diagnosed with SSS at a tertiary care center between January 2004 and April 2024. All patients had radiographic evidence of maxillary sinus atelectasis and orbital floor resorption.

Sudden visual disturbances are of significant concern and often among the most challenging scenarios for emergency providers in underserved communities without on-call ophthalmology services. Vulnerable areas in emergency training vary among nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and even physicians. Urgent and non-urgent ophthalmology disorders are commonly cited in the literature as one of the most challenging areas for emergency providers.

Multiple Exceptional Rings in One-Dimensional Perovskite Photonic Crystals.

Exceptional rings (ERs) are high-dimensional non-Hermitian topologies formed by exceptional points, significantly enriching the topological properties of non-Hermitian systems. Because of the intricate topology and symmetry requirements, the realization of ERs generally demands complex structures and precise parameter tuning, resulting in relatively few experimental observations in high-dimensional periodic systems. Here, we show that even the simplest 1D non-Hermitian periodic systems can support multiple ERs, enabled by the system's multiple degrees of freedom which naturally accommodate diverse non-Hermitian perturbations.

Optomechanical and electro-optomechanical systems have emerged as one of the most promising approaches for quantum microwave-to-optical transduction to interconnect distributed quantum modalities for scaling the quantum systems. These systems use suspended structures to increase mode overlap and mitigate loss to achieve high efficiency. However, the suspended design's poor heat dissipation under strong drive limits the ultimate efficiency.

Thyroid eye disease (TED) is a prevalent autoimmune orbital disorder that can severely impair visual function and significantly diminish patients' quality of life. In recent years, several studies have attempted to automate TED diagnosis using optical coherence tomography (OCT) images. However, existing approaches primarily rely on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) combined with attention mechanisms and are mostly trained using traditional cross-entropy loss.
