When two signals having overlapping frequency content are received at the same time, they interfere to obstruct detection of the information carried by each individual signal. We introduce here a new nonlinear optoelectronic filtering technique that enables the ability to individually detect two concurrent and spectrally overlapping signals, even when the amplitude ratio between the signals is as high as 100,000. We demonstrate our system for application in steganography where we unveil the information carried by a hidden desired RF signal, while a dominant interferer signal is intentionally transmitted nearby and at the same frequency. Our signal recovery technique, which operates assuming no a priori knowledge of either signal, presents an additional pathway that can be used to control how information can be processed and communicated.

Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides are promising materials that not only are atomically thin but also have direct bandgaps, making them highly regarded in optics and optoelectronics. However, their photoluminescence exhibits almost random polarization at room temperature. The emission is also omnidirectional and weak due to the low quantum yield.

Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) is becoming a valuable technique in gas-phase structural biology for identifying local structural motifs and conformations of biological molecules, such as peptides and proteins. This method involves labeling the biomolecule with two dyes, a donor dye and an acceptor dye, that are commonly charged rhodamines. Here we examine how different amino acid (AA) methyl esters linked to the dye via amide linkages can influence the dye transition energy and, consequently, the energy-transfer efficiency, using cryogenic ion fluorescence spectroscopy.

Multicolor microscopy and super-resolution optical microscopy are two widely used techniques that greatly enhance the ability to distinguish and resolve structures in cellular imaging. These methods have individually transformed cellular imaging by allowing detailed visualization of cellular and subcellular structures, as well as organelle interactions. However, integrating multicolor and super-resolution microscopy into a single method remains challenging due to issues like spectral overlap, crosstalk, photobleaching, phototoxicity, and technical complexity.

Clinical adoption of innovative EEG technology is contingent on the non-inferiority of the new devices relative to conventional ones. We present the four key results from testing the signal quality of Zeto's WR19 EEG system against a conventional EEG system conducted on patients in a clinical setting. Methods: We performed 30-minute simultaneous recordings using the Zeto WR19 (zEEG) and a conventional clinical EEG system (cEEG) in a cohort of 15 patients.
