Coherent modulation imaging (CMI) has become an effective tool for simultaneously detecting the modulus and phase of complex light fields. However, previously reported CMI methods suffered from low signal-to-noise ratios (SNR) and low convergence speeds. In this study, we propose a modified CMI method with high SNR and fast reconstruction speed. Both phase plate and diffraction patterns were split into nine units and then taken into reconstruction in 81 different combinations to suppress reconstruction noise. At the same time, since parallel reconstructions were carried out with these split units of reduced data volume, the reconstruction time was compressed from 40s to 2s. Experimental results suggest that this proposed method can make CMI more powerful for detecting laser beams, mechanical deformations, and biological samples.

Light-driven formation of radical ion pairs that occurs much faster than their electron spin dynamics results in correlated spins whose coherence properties can be used as a quantum-based electric field sensor. This results from the radical ion pair having charge and spin distributions that track one another. Thus, electric field induced changes in the distance between the two charges are reflected in the spin-spin distance that can be measured directly using out-of-phase electron spin echo envelope modulation (OOP-ESEEM), a pulse-EPR technique.

The generation of coherent deep-ultraviolet (DUV) radiation via nonlinear frequency conversion remains a major scientific and technological challenge in modern optics. To date, only a very limited number of nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals-such as KBBF, ABF, and quartz-have been experimentally demonstrated to support measurable direct second-harmonic generation (SHG) at wavelengths of 177 nm or shorter. There is a pressing need to develop alternative materials or strategies that enable efficient frequency conversion in the DUV region.

Background: Cardiac issues following radiotherapy are increasingly prevalent among patients with thoracic cancer and coronary disease. However, the mechanisms underlying radiotherapy-induced plaque instability and changes in plaque characteristics on imaging remain unclear. This study used single-cell RNA sequencing to identify key features of vulnerable plaques following radiotherapy.

Memory and gaze behavior are intricately linked, guiding one another to extract information and create mental representations of our environment for subsequent retrieval. Recent findings from functional neuroimaging and computational modeling suggest that reciprocal interactions between the extended hippocampal system and visuo-oculomotor regions are functionally relevant for building these mental representations during visual exploration. Yet, evidence for the directionality of information flow during encoding within this reciprocal architecture in humans is limited.

Strong electron-hole interactions in a semimetal or narrow-gap semiconductor may drive a ground state of condensed excitons. Monolayer WTe has been proposed as a host material for such an exciton condensate, but the order parameter─the key signature of a macroscopic quantum-coherent condensate─has not been observed. Here, we use Fourier-transform scanning tunneling spectroscopy (FT-STS) to study quasiparticle interference (QPI) and periodic modulations of the local density of states (LDOS) in monolayer WTe.
