We report an external stress modulation method for producing a superstructure fiber Bragg grating (FBG) with approximate cascaded resonant cavities composed of different index chirp distributions. The 15 mm uncoated apodized uniform-period FBG is pressed by the vertical stress from the upper 11 pieces of the pattern plate controlled by a piezoelectric ceramic actuator. The piece length is 1 mm, and the interval of the adjacent pieces is 0.4 mm. The reflectivity of the modulated FBG gradually shows six obvious multichannel 75%-85% reflection peaks with the increase of the vertical stress of each pattern-plate piece from 0 to 30 N. The channel spacing is steady at about 10 GHz for a C-band wavelength division multiplexing system.

Secondary nucleation is an emerging approach for synthesizing higher-order supramolecular polymers with exciting topologies. However, a detailed understanding of growth processes and the synthesis of homochiral superstructures is yet to be demonstrated. Here, we report the non-covalent synthesis of dendritic homochiral superstructures using NIR triimide dyes as building blocks via a secondary nucleation elongation process.

Article Synopsis
- This study assesses the fracture strength of implant-supported fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) made from 3D-printed resin, comparing those with and without fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) frameworks.
- Forty FDPs were made in two types: monolithic (all resin) and bi-layer (resin with FRC framework), with testing conducted on aging and control samples to measure their resistance to bending.
- Results showed that FDPs with the FRC framework had significantly higher fracture strength, while aging didn't affect strength but influenced failure patterns, mainly occurring at the connectors, especially in the premolar area.

The imperative advance towards achieving "carbon neutrality" necessitates the development of porous structures possessing dual acoustic and mechanical properties in order to mitigate energy consumption. Nevertheless, enhancing various functionalities often leads to an increase in the structural weight, which limits the feasibility of using such structures in weight-sensitive applications. In accordance with the outlined specifications, a novel structural design incorporating carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites alongside mechanical and acoustic metamaterials has been introduced for the first time.

The integration of biomolecules into supramolecular nanostructures forms the basis of the natural world. Naturally occurring liquid-liquid phase separation resulting in biomolecular condensates has inspired the formation of biomolecule-based smart materials with multi-dimensional applications. A non-covalent bio-condensation between biomass DNA and guanosine monophosphate (GMP) has been described, mimicking chromatin folding and creating a unique "all-nucleic" DNA-GMP condensates.

This paper presents the in-plane deformation and cyclic mechanical properties of CF/PEEK (Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polyetheretherketone)-reinforced TPU (thermoplastic polyurethanes) flexible composites with a zero Poisson ratio. A novel CF/PEEK honeycomb reinforcement with a zero Poisson ratio was fabricated by using 3D-printing technology. Then, TPU was bonded in the two sides of the CF/PEEK honeycomb reinforcement.
