AI Article Synopsis
- Frozen waves are a type of nondiffracting beam that maintain a specific intensity profile as they travel through absorbing fluids.
- These waves are created from Bessel beams with varying wavenumbers using a programmable spatial light modulator.
- The resilience of frozen waves against loss during propagation makes them useful for applications like particle manipulation, data transmission, remote sensing, and imaging.
Article Abstract
We demonstrate a class of nondiffracting beams, called frozen waves, with a central spot that can be made to maintain a predefined intensity profile while propagating in an absorbing fluid. Frozen waves are composed of Bessel beams with different transverse and longitudinal wavenumbers, and are generated using a programmable spatial light modulator. The attenuation-resistant frozen waves demonstrated here address the problem of propagation losses in absorbing media. This development can be beneficial for many applications in particle micro-manipulation, data communications, remote sensing, and imaging.

We report on conditions of invariance of the transmitted pattern in the propagation through a periodic waveguide, the incident wave having no effect on the intensity pattern of the transmitted field. This phenomenon is reminiscent of that observed when illuminating a disordered medium in the regime of Anderson localization, as a consequence of the contribution of a single transmission eigenchannel to the transmitted wave. It is shown that the freezing of the transmitted wave is not intrinsically related to the disorder and that, whatever the frequency, it can also be observed in a regular, periodic system, provided that at most one Bloch mode is propagating.

Objective: To retrospectively investigate the efficacy of phloroglucinol administration after freeze-thawed embryo transfer in patients experiencing recurrent implantation failure (RIF).
Materials And Methods: A total of 139 infertile couples who experienced RIF undergoing in vitro fertilisation and embryo transfer were divided into the control (n = 66) and the phloroglucinol (n = 73) groups. Women in the phloroglucinol group received 80 mg phloroglucinol 30 min after transfer, then once daily up to day 3 after the embryo transfer.

The variation in thawing time, deterioration behavior, secondary structure, surface hydrophobicity, and average particle size of frozen egg whites (EW) thawed with or without ultrasound were characterized to evaluate the effect of ultrasound on the gel properties and volatiles of egg white thermogel (EWG). The texture, water holding capacity, etc., gel properties and microstructure were well maintained in frozen EW thawed by ultrasound (UEW) resulted from the mitigation of deterioration behavior due to shorter melting time (reduced 91.
