Article Abstract
This paper provides detailed insight into the silicon-graphene-based hybrid antenna in the THz regime. Some of its features make the proposed aerial design unique, and these features are: (a) creation of 11 mode inside the ceramic and its placement on either side of the substrate provides quasi-isotropic radiation features; (b) array-based design provides higher gain, i.e., 9.0 dBi within the working range; and (c) coating of a graphene layer over silicon adds frequency-tunable features. Optimized outcomes were confirmed with the assistance of the CST simulation tool, which works between 2.4 and 2.85 THz. Stable radiation attributes and good efficacy (over 90%) make the designed aerial workable for THz-built mobile communication systems for short-distance communication with very high throughput requirements, such as holographic communications.

While hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) hosts promising room-temperature quantum emitters for hybrid quantum photonic circuits, scalable deterministic integration and insufficient brightness alongside low photon collection and coupling efficiencies remain unresolved challenges. We present a femtosecond laser nanoengineering platform that enables the site-specific generation of hBN single-photon source (SPS) arrays. First-principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations and polarization-resolved spectroscopy confirm the atomic origin of emission as interfacial defects at hBN/SiO heterojunctions.

The olfactory system of insects plays a vital role in their survival by enabling them to detect chemical cues and adapt to changing environments. The rape stem weevil, Ceutorhynchus asper, is a significant pest posing a challenge for rapeseed production due to its destructive feeding habit and increasing resistance to insecticides. So far, there's still limited knowledge about structure and function of odorant binding proteins (OBPs) in beetles like C.

Stretchable soft antennas represent a transformative class of devices that seamlessly integrate wireless communication into deformable and dynamic platforms. Enabled by advances in functional materials and structural engineering, these antennas can withstand large mechanical deformations while maintaining stable electromagnetic performance - unlocking new possibilities in wearable electronics, soft robotics, and implantable biomedical systems. This review systematically surveys recent progress in conductive material choices - from traditional metals and liquid metal to nanocomposites and hybrid architectures - and examines how structural strategies such as serpentine layouts, kirigami patterns, and out-of-plane designs redistribute strain to preserve antenna performance under repeated deformation.

Traditional algorithms such as Dijkstra and APF rely on complete environmental information for path planning, which results in numerous constraints during modeling. This not only increases the complexity of the algorithms but also reduces the efficiency and reliability of the planning. Swarm intelligence algorithms possess strong data processing and search capabilities, enabling them to efficiently solve path planning problems in different environments and generate approximately optimal paths.

Integrating semiconductor nanowires with a nanoplasmonic metal surface substrate enables a real-time photocurrent response, offering a promising immunosensing platform. However, achieving one-step biorecognition detection of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) biomarker remains a challenge. Herein, we present the development of an antenna-engaged nanowire-inspired porous heterostructure comprising polydopamine-functionalized titanium dioxide nanowires integrated with an Au plasmonic layer (PDA/TNW/Au-PL) for ultrasensitive immunosensors under homemade white light-emitting diodes (LEDs).
