We obtained 74-kW peak power and 3.5-W average output power in 1-ps pulses from a diode-pumped Yb:YAG laser at 1030 nm that was passively mode locked with a semiconductor saturable-absorber mirror. Another laser produced 57-kW peak power and as much as 8.1-W average output power in 2.2-ps pulses, split into two nearly diffraction-limited beams (M(2)<1.2) . To our knowledge, these are by far the highest reported peak and average output powers from a diode-pumped mode-locked laser in this pulse-duration regime.

The accurate estimation of the temperature distribution of the GaN based power devices and optimization of the device structure is of great significance to possibly solve the self-heating problem, which hinders the further enhancement of the device performances. We present here the operando temperature measurement with high spatial resolution using Raman spectroscopy of AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) with different device structures and explore the optimization of the device thermal design accordingly. The lateral and depth temperature distributions of the single-finger HEMT were characterized.

Background: Swallowed topical corticosteroids (STC) are an effective first-line therapy for patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), both for induction and maintenance of remission. All interventional trials with STC used twice-daily dosing regimens. However, in other inflammatory gastrointestinal disorders, corticosteroids are given once daily (OD) with equal outcomes and improved compliance.

Solar energy sources have garnered significant attention as a renewable energy option. Despite this, the practical power conversion efficiency (PCE) of widely used silicon-based solar cells remains low due to inefficient light utilization. In this study, carbon dots (APCDs) were prepared a hydrothermal method using ammonium polyphosphate and -phenylenediamine, then incorporated into a silicone-acrylic emulsion (CAS) to create a luminescent down-shifting (LDS) layer for solar cells.

Wave mixing (WM) techniques are crucial for applications such as supercontinuum generation, frequency conversion, and high-dimensional quantum encoding. However, their efficiency is often limited by complex phase-matching requirements, and current insights into phase-matching mechanisms for high-order WM remain limited. To address this, compact optical path configurations with high-peak-power, synchronous, multicolor ultrafast laser sources are needed to enhance high-order wave-mixing efficiency.

We present a wideband rectifying metasurface (RMS) with enhanced system efficiency for wireless power transmission and energy harvesting. The RMS consists of periodic arrays with integrated diodes, with a high input impedance matched with the diodes, thus eliminating the matching network between metasurface (MS) and rectifier. Besides, a unique harmonic feedback network is embedded in each unit cell, rectifying the high-order harmonic generated by the diode repeatedly, improving the total efficiency over a wide bandwidth.
