Cascaded stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) of carbon disulfide () was investigated by a pulsed Nd:YAG laser with a wavelength of 532 nm. The fourth-order Stokes and second-order anti-Stokes lines were generated when the pump laser energy was about 1.909 mJ in one sample cell () only. However, the same result was obtained in the second sample cell () with a pump energy of 0.883 mJ. At the same time, the fifth-order Stokes line was produced in when the pump energy increased to 1.208 mJ, and the coherent radiation wavelength ranged from 498 to 644 nm. The result was attributed to the resonance enhancement effect, where the frequency difference between the pump laser and the Stokes light emitted from the working medium () self-matched with the vibrational energy level of =, which resulted in the generation of the cascaded broadband SRS. The anti-Stokes SRS was attributed to four-wave mixing. Simultaneously, the pulse durations of the Stokes and anti-Stokes were compressed to about 380 ps by SRS and laser-induced breakdown. The resonance effect not only reduced the threshold, but it also generated broadband and short-pulse SRS.

The estimation of peripheral dose (PD) is vital in cancer patients with long life expectancy. Assessment of PD to radiosensitive organs is important to determine the possible risk of late effects. An attempt has been made to assess the peripheral dose using optically stimulated luminescence dosimeter (OSLD) with megavoltage photon beams as a function of field size, depth, energy, and distance from the field edge.

Developing scaffolds supporting functional cell attachment and tissue growth is critical in basic cell research, tissue engineering, and regenerative medicine approaches. Though poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and its derivatives are attractive for hydrogels and scaffold fabrication, they often require bioactive modifications due to their bioinert nature. In this work, biomimetic synthesized conductive polypyrrole-poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) copolymer doped with poly(styrenesulfonate) (PPy-PEDOT:PSS) was used as a biocompatible coating for poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) hydrogel to support neuronal and muscle cells' attachment, activity, and differentiation.

Doxorubicin (DOX) is a first-line chemotherapy agent known for its cardiac toxicity. DOX-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC) severely limits the use for treating malignant tumors and is associated with a poor prognosis. The sensitivity to DIC varies among patients, but the precise mechanisms remain elusive.

The physical picture for photocurrent injection and coherent control in intrinsic graphene under two-color laser excitation remains obscure. Previously, photocurrent injection of intrinsic graphene was attributed to the quantum interference between two electronic transition pathways of single-photon and two-photon absorptions as well as layer-to-layer coupling. Here, we show that quantum interference between stimulated electronic Raman scattering and single-photon absorption plays a very important role in contributing to the total photocurrent, while interlayer coupling does not sufficiently affect the photocurrent injection, which is in contrast to the previous interpretation of the experimental results on photocurrent injection and coherent control.

A combination of femtosecond stimulated Raman scattering and surface-enhanced Raman scattering, termed surface-enhanced stimulated Raman scattering (SE-FSRS), was proposed to leverage both temporal precision and sensitivity for advanced molecular dynamics analysis. During the initial successful implementations of this approach, unexpected spectral distortions were observed, and several potential explanations were proposed. Further progress in this novel technique and its broader implementation requires a profound understanding of the factors influencing the shape of the registered spectra and the underlying mechanisms.
