Split ring resonators (SRR) are optical nanostructures that have received a lot of attention for their ability to support magnetic resonance and for their potential use as materials with negative dielectric constant. In this work, we design SRRs as near-field transducers (NFT) for generating a nanoscale hotspot in heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR), which is considered a candidate for the next-generation data storage technology. The underlying mechanisms for the generation of hotspot and the dependence on wavelength and geometry of the SRR structure are studied. Optical and thermal performance of SRRs functioning as NFTs in a HAMR device are evaluated. These structures were fabricated using focused ion beam milling. The focusing capability of the SRR is experimentally demonstrated using a scattering near field scanning optical microscope.

Purpose: To report the long-term surgical outcomes of acquired ankyloblepharon correction using mucous membrane graft.
Methods: Five eyes of 4 patients (median age, 19 years) with acquired ankyloblepharon were managed using eyelid splitting and mucous membrane graft anchored to the recti muscles on the bulbar surface in the respective quadrant and onto the bare tarsal surface. Outcome measures include a change in the palpebral fissure width, ability to fit scleral contact lenses, visual acuity, and cosmesis.

This paper presents a slot antenna integrated with a split ring resonator (SRR) and feed line, designed to achieve a high Q-factor while maximizing channel capacity utilization. By incorporating a lens into the dielectric resonator antenna (DRA), we enhance both bandwidth and directivity, with the dielectric material's permittivity serving as a key control parameter for radiation characteristics. We explore water and ethanol as controllable dielectrics within the terahertz (THz) frequency range (0.

Biosensors operating in the terahertz (THz) region are gaining substantial interest in biomedical analysis due to their significant potential for high-sensitivity trace-amount solution detection. However, progress in compact, high-sensitivity chips and methods for simple, rapid and trace-level measurements is limited by the spatial resolution of THz waves and their strong absorption in polar solvents. In this work, a compact nonlinear optical crystal (NLOC)-based reflective THz biosensor with a few arrays of asymmetrical meta-atoms was developed.

Phosphorus (P) is an essential macronutrient for the growth and yield of crops. However, there is limited understanding of the regulatory mechanisms of phosphate (Pi) homeostasis, and its impact on growth, development, and yield-related traits in Brassica napus. Here, we identified four NITROGEN LIMITATION ADAPATATION1 (BnaNLA1) genes in B.

We study a simple model of swarmalators subject to periodic forcing and confined to moving around a one-dimensional ring. This is a toy model for physical systems with a mix of sync, swarming, and forcing, such as colloidal micromotors. We find rich behavior: pinned states where the swarmalators are locked to the driving, sync states where their phases are either identical or have fixed differences, and unsteady states, such as swarmalator chimera where the population splits into two sync dots enclosed by a "train" of swarmalators that run around a peanut-shaped loop.
