When signals are recorded on a planar aperture with point emitters/detectors, from either a three-dimensional (3D) scattering potential or from a 3D spatially-incoherent source distribution, an integral equation arises containing the product of two Green's functions in the weak scattering limit (the Born approximation). This fundamental imaging equation for scatterers or sources is derived and solved analytically.

The planar lipid bilayer (PLB) technique represents a highly effective method for the study of membrane protein properties in a controlled environment. The PLB method was employed to investigate the role of mitochondrial inner membrane protein 17 (MPV17), whose mutations are associated with a hepatocerebral form of mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome (MDS). This protocol presents a comprehensive, step-by-step guide to the assembly and utilization of a PLB system.

Radar imaging is a technology that uses radar systems to generate target images. It transmits radio waves, receives the signal reflected back by the target, and realizes imaging by analyzing the target's position, shape, and motion information. The three-dimensional (3D) forward-looking imaging of missile-borne radar is a branch of radar imaging.

Article Synopsis
  • A new flexible metal-ink hybrid metasurface is developed for use with planar structures, enhancing absorption while allowing efficient transmission.
  • The metasurface integrates with an aperture-coupled antenna array, achieving simultaneous radar cross-section (RCS) reduction and high-performance radiation while keeping the structure low profile.
  • Simulation results indicate significant RCS reductions in specific frequency ranges, with confirmed experimental outcomes, demonstrating the metasurface's potential to improve stealth in antenna technology.

The pollen dispersal unit of the epidendroid species, Cephalanthera longifolia, is a soft pollinium consisting of loosely connected tetrads that are agglutinated by elastoviscin. With scanning electron microscopy, the reticulate exine is visible on the outer pollen grains of outer tetrads of a pollinium. The pollen grains are mostly arranged in planar-tetragonal tetrads or decussate tetrads and easily disintegrate into monads.

Article Synopsis
  • The integration of multifunctional metasurfaces into 5G/6G systems offers improved performance and capacity by enabling various wavefront manipulations, like phase and polarization control.
  • Despite advancements, there is a need for metasurfaces that can operate at multiple frequencies with minimal interference and high efficiency.
  • This study presents a metasurface that can encode phase and amplitude at dual frequencies, allowing for innovative applications including unusual reflection patterns, imaging, and vortex beam generation, supported by both theoretical and simulation results.
