A modified all-solid-state optical cryocooler prototype based on anti-Stokes fluorescence in a 10%-doped Yb:YLF crystal cooled a payload to temperatures below 125 K starting from room temperature. To achieve this record performance, the optical refrigerator employed a novel, to the best of our knowledge, textured-MgF thermal link to improve the thermal transport and fluorescence escape. Additionally, it used spectrally selective, high-reflection coatings in the pump circulator cavity to suppress parasitic lasing and amplified spontaneous emission.

The information engine extracts work from a single heat bath using mutual information obtained during the operation cycle. This study investigates the influence of potential shaping in a Brownian information engine (BIE) in harnessing the information from thermal fluctuations. We designed a BIE by considering an overdamped Brownian particle inside a confined potential and introducing an appropriate symmetric feedback cycle.

In this study, a konjac glucomannan (KGM)/ gelatin (GEL)-based film integrated with ginger essential oil (GEO) and rosemary essence oil (REO)-loaded bacterial cellulose was prepared. The synergistic effects of GEO and REO were evaluated. The physicochemical, mechanical, optical, morphological, antibacterial, antioxidant properties, thermal stability and preservation effects of the composite films were characterized.

In this study, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), DenseNet121, Inception V3 and ResNet50 machine learning algorithms were used to determine the quality changes in sea bream stored in refrigerator conditions using eye and gill images. The sea bream were categorized into 3 different freshness categories as fresh, moderate and spoiled and analysed with machine learning algorithms. According to the Confusion matrix values, it was determined that the prediction performance of the model was 100 % and the lowest value was calculated to be 98.

Significance: Accurate values of skin optical properties are essential for developing reliable computational models and optimizing optical imaging systems. However, published values show a large variability due to a variety of factors, including differences in sample collection, preparation, experimental methodology, and analysis.
Aim: We aim to explore the influence of storage conditions on the optical properties of the excised skin from 400 to 1100 nm.
