Orbital angular momentum (OAM) multiplexing holography offers unprecedented capacity for optical encryption. We propose a petal OAM holographic scheme for two-dimensional optical encryption by constructing superposition modes of ± OAM states with phase , uniquely encoding dual degrees of freedom (DoFs, and ) as independent multiplexing channels. The strong mode selectivity enables multi-image integration into a single hologram, doubling information capacity while enhancing security. Simulations and experiments validate petal OAM's preservation, selective addressing, and multiplexing capability. A 2D high-security encryption platform is experimentally demonstrated, providing an anti-counterfeiting solution with multi-parameter optical encryption. This work pioneers OAM DoF synergy for next-generation holographic security systems.

The development of novel optical self-healing materials holds significant importance for applications in anticounterfeiting and information encryption, but remains a formidable challenge. This study presents a fluorescent self-healing material designed for 2D/3D printing anticounterfeiting applications, exhibiting outstanding properties such as high transmittance, excellent mechanical strength, and remarkable self-healing efficiency. The triple dynamic bond networks provide robust mechanical and self-healing capabilities, with the polymer demonstrating a tensile strength of 26.

The exponential growth of data in the information era has pushed conventional optical communication technology to its limitations, including inefficient spectral utilization, slow data rate, and inherent security vulnerabilities. Here, a transformative high-speed organic spectral wireless communication (SWC) technology enabled by a flexible, miniaturized, and high-performance organic hyperspectrometer is proposed that integrates ultrahigh-speed data transmission with hardware-level encryption. By synergistically combining organic photodetector arrays with tunable responsivities and spectral-tunable organic filters, the organic hyperspectrometer achieves a broad spectral detection range of 400 to 900 nm, resolution of 1.

In the realm of secure information storage, optical encryption has emerged as a vital technique, particularly with the miniaturization of encryption devices. However, many existing systems lack the necessary reconfigurability and dynamic functionality. This study presents a novel approach through the development of dynamic optical-to-chemical energy conversion metamaterials, which enable enhanced steganography and multilevel information storage.

All inorganic lead halide perovskite (CsPbX) has become a hot topic in chiral optics for its high quantum yield and tunable luminescence. The environmental degradation tendency and lack of magneto-optical coupling mechanism of lead-based perovskite severely restrict its chirality integrated application. Rare-earth ions (such as Gd, Eu), with their unique 4f electronic configuration, not only passivate the lattice defects to improve stability but also expand the spectral response range through electronic localization effects.
