We present the use of a linearly down-tapered gas-filled hollow-core photonic crystal fiber in a single stage, pumped with pulses from a compact infrared (IR) laser source, to generate a supercontinuum (SC) carrying significant spectral power in the deep ultraviolet (UV) [200-300 nm]. The generated SC extends from the near IR down to ∼213 with 0.58 mW/nm and down to ∼220 with 0.83 mW/nm in the deep UV.

Strong coupling between nanocavities and single excitons at room temperature is important for studying cavity quantum electrodynamics. However, the coupling strength is highly dependent on the spatial light-confinement ability of the cavity, the number of involved excitons, and the orientation of the electric field within the cavity. By constructing a hybrid cavity with a one-dimensional photonic crystal cavity and a plasmonic nanocavity, we effectively improve the quality factor, reduce the mode volume, and control the direction of the electric field using Bloch surface waves.

As biomimicry advances, liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) are gaining attention for their (multi-)stimuli-responsiveness and reversible shape morphing. Introduction of dynamic bonds into the LCEs provides versatile means towards programmable shape morphing and adaptation to environmental cues, and new designs for dynamic LCEs are actively sought for. Here, we present a supramolecular LCE that integrates shape memory programming, humidity sensitivity, and photochemical actuation.

The cytological examination of urine samples can be done using the manual (microscopic) or automated technique. The automated approach, which involves the use of artificial intelligence, is faster, more reliable, and more efficient for laboratories.

The preparation of single-crystal polymers with circularly polarized luminesce (CPL) remains a challenging task in chemistry and materials science. Herein, we present the single-crystal-to-single-crystal topochemical photopolymerization of a chiral organic salt to achieve this goal. The in-situ reaction of 1,4-bis((E)-2-(pyridin-4-yl)vinyl)benzene (1) with chiral (+)- or (-)-camphorsulfonic acid (CSA) gives the monomer crystal 1[( + )/( - )-CSA] showing yellow CPL with a high luminescent dissymmetry factor |g| of 0.

High intrinsic detection efficiency is as decisive as high energy resolution. Scaling up detector volume has presented great challenges, preventing perovskite semiconductors from reaching sufficient detection efficiency. We report a hole-only virtual-Frisch-grid CsPbBr detector up to 2.
