AI Article Synopsis

  • The study uses the finite difference time domain method to theoretically analyze how optical transmissions behave in compound gold slit arrays.
  • Differences in transmission, reflection, and absorption are explored between bare slits and those with surface relief grating, revealing how variations in dielectric constants and slit widths affect the spectra.
  • The introduction of different dielectrics in the slits causes red-shifts in plasmon resonances and notable dips in transmission spectra, attributed to Fabry-Pérot-like resonance and phase resonance mechanisms.

Article Abstract

The optical transmissions through compound gold surface relief slit arrays were investigated theoretically by using the finite difference time domain method. The differences of transmission, reflection, and absorption spectra of the bare slit and the surface relief grating are discussed. The transmission spectra influenced by different dielectric constants of medium in the two slits and different slits widths. When the two slits fill different dielectrics, the presence of the medium induces a red-shift of the plasmon resonances. Along with the dielectric constant in one slit increasing, there appear obvious dips in the transmission spectra. Based on the magnetic and electric field distributions, Fabry-Pérot-like resonance and phase resonance mechanisms have been suggested for the physical origins of these observations.

This case report describes Zoon's vulvitis or plasma cell vulvitis (PCV) with coexisting lichen planus (LP) treated with methotrexate. PCV is a rare, chronic, benign idiopathic inflammatory condition of the vulvar mucosa, characterized by a bright-red, chronic lesion of mucosa. Typically, it presents as atrophic, shiny, red plaques that can affect any part of the vulva and can spread symmetrically and bilaterally with the propensity of chronicity and gradual coalescence.

Optical vortices possess a helical phase wavefront with central phase dislocation and orbital angular momentum. We demonstrated three-dimensional microstructure formation using a femtosecond optical vortex beam. Two-photon polymerization of photocurable resin was induced by long-term exposure, resulting in the fabrication of cylindrical structures.

Significance: Artificial tears remain the cornerstone for managing dry eye disease. The current study's real-world efficacy test of carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), polyethylene glycol (PEG) 400, or sodium hyaluronate (SH)-based lubricants highlights their similar effects on noninvasive tear film parameters over the short term. However, patients reported better relief with SH-based lubricants.
