We propose a simple and flexible method to create identical multiple focal spots with three-dimensional arbitrary shifting without moving lenses or laser beams. The incident cylindrical vector (CV) beam superposed with predesigned phase and amplitude modulations is tightly focused by a single lens. The multiple focal spots with predetermined number and positions are generated and the identical intensity distribution as well as the polarization distribution for each individual focal spot is demonstrated. We also present a three-dimensional dynamic shifting with four identical focal spots along Pyramid-like trajectory by continuously regulating the phase and amplitude modulations on the incident CV beam. Furthermore, multiple focal spots with unique intensity profile can also be achieved when proper diffractive optical element (DOE) is associated in the focusing system. These engineered focal fields may find potential applications in 3D laser printing, moving multiple particles trapping and manipulations.

A transversely isotropic diode-pumped solid-state laser is used to obtain an orthogonally dual-polarization nonplanar circular mode (NCM) under off-axis pumping in the strictly degenerate cavity. Each polarized component of the NCM outside the cavity is revealed to be individually localized on the ray orbits forming a nonplanar surface, in which the transverse patterns display multiple spots well positioned on a circular structure. An analytical representation is established to explore polarization-resolved components of the NCM by utilizing the Gaussian wave packet to directly correlate with geometrical rays.

Neotropical regions near the equator are recognized as speciation "hot spots" reflecting their abundant biodiversity. In western South America, the coasts of Panama, Colombia, Ecuador, the Galápagos Archipelago, and northern Peru form the Tropical Eastern Pacific biome. This area has the greatest heterogeneity of sympatric fiddler crab species of any portion of the planet.

This work uses MoTe single crystals to address the challenge in heterogeneous catalysis of identifying active sites and determining the electronic factors responsible for catalytic activity. We find that for semiconducting MoTe, spots that fall along step edges show more catalytic activity than spots that fall solely on the basal plane. In contrast, for a semimetallic phase of MoTe, there is no measurable difference between the H evolution activity at the step edges and at the basal plane, indicating that the active sites for H evolution catalysis on transition metal dichalcogenides are phase dependent.

Hyperbolic metamaterials (HMMs) have recently attracted significant research attention due to their hyperbolic wavevector iso-frequency contour, which leads to substantial local electric field (EF) enhancements that benefit optical processes, such as the nonlinear generation, quantum science, biomedical sensing, and more. However, three main challenges hinder their practical implementation: the difficulty in exciting their resonant modes using free-space incidence, the weak enhancement of surface EF, and the narrow spectral range of EF enhancements. Herein, we proposed cross-etched HMMs (CeHMMs) as a novel type of HMM, addressing these issues.
