The formation of the female germline is the fundamental process in most flowering plants' sexual reproduction. In , only one somatic cell obtains the female germline fate, and this process is regulated by different pathways. Megaspore mother cell (MMC) is the first female germline, and understanding MMC development is essential for comprehending the complex mechanisms of plant reproduction processes.

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.

The refractive index modified (RIM) region formed by this method is 12 μm × 8 μm in size. Due to the Pl-by-Pl method, high-order Bragg resonances with reflectance greater than 99% can be achieved.

In the specific directly-modulated laser with direct detection (DML-DD) link, the interaction between the chirp of DML and chromatic dispersion (CD) can be modeled as composite second-order (CSO) distortion. By incorporating the CSO model into the nonlinear equalizer, it is possible to better extract the feature of the end-to-end channel, achieving superior performance with lower complexity.

However, its effective resolution, constrained by the inherent comb line spacing, hinders its ability to resolve narrow absorption features, common in critical applications such as sub-Doppler spectroscopy, low-pressure gas analysis, and construction of the atmospheric profile. To address this challenge, we present a synchronous offset frequency tuning method for the mid-infrared dual-comb system to improve effective resolution far beyond comb line spacing.
