We propose a new method of realizing ring resonators based on hybrid photonic crystal and conventional waveguide structures. The proposed ring resonator configuration is advantageous compared with general ring resonator structures for its controllability of the quality (Q) factor, free spectral range (FSR), and full width at half maximum (FWHM) over a wide range. We show ring resonator structures based on a single mode waveguide with core and clad refractive indices of 1.5 and 1.465, respectively. A 35mum x 50mum ring resonator has a free spectral range (FSR) of 14.1nm and a quality (Q) factor of 595 with high optical efficiency (92.7%). By decreasing the size of the ring resonator to 35mum x 35mum, the FSR is increased to 19.8nm. Modifying the splitting ratio of the beam splitters permits the Q factor to be increased to 1600.

In traditional operations of all-solid-state lithium metal batteries (ASSLMBs), a small thin lithium metal circular disk is employed as a lithium metal anode (LMA). However, ASSLMBs with a circular-disk LMA often fail in <150 cycles with low capacity retention. In this work, we developed a new ring-shaped LMA to improve cyclability.

The rapid emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria represents a critical global health threat, underscoring the urgent need for alternative antimicrobial strategies beyond conventional antibiotics. In this study, we report the synthesis of novel biobased antimicrobial polymers bearing quaternary ammonium salts, derived from sustainable feedstocks, maleic anhydride, dimethylaminobenzaldehyde, and furfurylamine. The functional tricyclic oxanorbornene lactam monomer is polymerized via ring opening metathesis polymerization, yielding well-defined polymers with controlled molar masses and low dispersity.

Myocardial microcirculation in athletes and its relationship with cardiac remodeling (CR) and myocardial fibrosis (MF) are not fully understood. We prospectively enrolled 174 athletes and 54 healthy sedentary controls for intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) diffusion-weighted imaging of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. Athletes exhibited significantly lower fast apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and perfusion fraction (f) in 16 myocardial segments and each blood supply area compared to controls ( < 0.
