We propose and demonstrate an all-fiber laser with LP mode output. A transverse mode filter is designed and fabricated to suppress the fundamental mode and enable the fiber laser to oscillate in the second-order (LP) transverse mode. The mechanism is to introduce relatively low ohmic loss for the TE mode and much higher ohmic losses for other modes through the loss of evanescent waves in the metal clad. The fiber laser operates at the center wavelength of 1053.9 nm with a narrow 3 dB linewidth of 0.019 nm. Four states of cylindrical vector mode with high modal purity are obtained through adjusting the intra-cavity polarization controller. This approach has great potentiality and scalability of realizing single high-order mode fiber laser, from which a wide range of applications could benefit.

Dynamic transverse mode instability (TMI) has become one of the primary limitations for power scaling of high-power fiber lasers. Experimental evidence has shown that static mode degradation can suppress the dynamic TMI effect. This study reveals the physical mechanisms behind the mitigation of dynamic TMI in two-mode fiber lasers through static mode degradation.

Here, we demonstrate the single-mode of two-dimensional transverse magnetic (TM) Dirac-vortex topological cavity modes that are not only generally available for high power topological surface-emitting lasers (TCSEL) but also are one of the excellent candidates for refractive index sensors. The principle for winding number is studied, and the scaling laws are shown with cavity mode diameters.

Background: Mouth breathing is related to morphological and functional alterations in growing individuals. Understanding early events that can lead to these changes can prevent or decrease the need for orthodontic treatment.
Objective: The goal was to assess the prognosis for dental alterations evidenced by changes in the incisor inclination and arch width after surgical intervention to normalize the mode of breathing in growing patients.

Background: Colorectal metastasis from primary breast cancer is rare and presents a challenge for diagnosis and treatment.
Aim: To report two cases of colorectal metastasis from a primary invasive lobular breast carcinoma (ILBC) with different presentations while discussing the mode of diagnosis, immunohistochemistry (IHC), course of treatment, and response.
Case 1: A 47-year-old female, with a known case of bilateral invasive lobular breast cancer, was diagnosed in 2015 and staged as p Tx N3 M0.

Intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration is suspected to affect the distribution of stress and strain near the vertebral endplates and in the underlying bone. This scenario is worsened by the presence of metastatic lesions on the vertebrae (primarily thoracic vertebrae (60-80 %)) which increase the risk of fracture. As such, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of IVD degeneration on the internal volumetric strains and failure modes of human metastatic vertebral bodies.
