We assess the importance of Stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) anti-Stokes wave on reflection tolerance in remotely seeded wavelength-division multiplexing passive optical networks (WDM PON). Experimental validation of the extended model for the externally seeded SBS is presented towards assessing the conditions in which the anti-Stokes contribution becomes relevant in the variant scenario of remotely carrier-seeded PON. We identify relevant operating conditions in which the latter can no longer be reliably neglected, and analyze the remote seed power budget implications of such contribution. Considering typical launch powers in PON systems we found that, even for seed launch powers below SBS threshold, non-optimized upstream (US) power spectral density may lead to a considerable anti-Stokes contribution to the SBS gain. In effect, in order to maintain a reference optical return loss (ORL) of 32 dB in such scenario, anti-Stokes wave contribution imposed rigorous remote seed power budget restrictions depending on fiber parameters.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a complex disease of cartilage characterised by joint pain, functional limitation, and reduced quality of life with affected joint movement leading to pain and limited mobility. Current methods to diagnose OA are predominantly limited to X-ray, MRI and invasive joint fluid analysis, all of which lack chemical or molecular specificity and are limited to detection of the disease at later stages. A rapid minimally invasive and non-destructive approach to disease diagnosis is a critical unmet need.

Article Synopsis
- The tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a crucial role in cancer progression and consists of various components like the extracellular matrix, stromal cells, immune cells, and blood vessels, which are key to developing better cancer treatments.
- Traditional diagnostic methods have limitations, prompting the use of label-free multimodal nonlinear optical (MNLO) microscopy, which allows for detailed imaging of the TME without external labels.
- Techniques such as second harmonic generation and coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering provide valuable insights into tumor biology, helping detect early cancer changes and monitor progression, though challenges like complexity and cost of these technologies still exist.

Article Synopsis
- Photon-upconversion (PUC) processes, such as triplet-triplet upconversion and hot-band absorption, are emerging for better energy harvesting but need improvements in efficiency and energy loss.* -
- The proposed PUC mechanism utilizes a combination of a triplet sensitizer and thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) molecules to efficiently transfer energy, resulting in an emission with an anti-Stokes energy of 0.18 eV.* -
- The efficiency of this energy transfer is influenced by the radiative decay rate of TADF molecules and the Gibbs energy difference between the donor and acceptor, providing insight valuable for future applications like optical cooling systems.*

Thermal activation process utilizes environmental thermal energy to help supplement energy for the nonspontaneous energy-consuming upconversion physical transitions with positive free energy change (ΔG>0). Reverse intersystem crossing (rISC) and hot band absorption are two kinds of thermal activation transitions. Thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials with rISC have significantly propelled advancements in organic semiconductors.
