Silicon photonic integrated sensors based on microring resonators are a promising candidate to achieve high-performance on-chip sensing. In this work, a novel dual-parameters sensor based on polarization multiplexing on silicon-on-insulator (SOI) platform is proposed and demonstrated experimentally, simultaneously achieving refractive index (RI) and temperature sensing with high sensitivity and large detection range (DR). The experimental results show that the RI sensitivity and temperature sensitivity of the TM-operated sensor are 489.3 nm/RIU and 20.0 pm/°C, respectively, and that of the TE-operated sensor are 102.6 nm/RIU and 43.3 pm/°C, respectively. Moreover, the DR of the fabricated sensor is 0.0296 RIU, which is 4.2 times that of the conventional TM-operated sensor based on the microring resonator. The dual-parameters sensor based on polarization multiplexing can successfully realize the simultaneous measurement of the RI and the temperature, showing potential applications of silicon photonic on-chip sensors in reality.

Metasurfaces have exhibited excellent capabilities in controlling main characteristics of electromagnetic fields. Thus, a lot of significant achievements have been attained in many areas especially in the fields of hologram and near-field imaging. However, some of these designs are implemented in a manner of interleaved subarrays that complicates the design and makes them difficult to achieve integration.

Ferroelectricity with concomitant Coulomb screening in van der Waals heterostructures.

Interfacial ferroelectricity emerges in non-centrosymmetric heterostructures consisting of non-polar van der Waals (vdW) layers. Ferroelectricity with concomitant Coulomb screening can switch topological currents or superconductivity and simulate synaptic response. So far, it has only been realized in bilayer graphene moiré superlattices, posing stringent requirements to constituent materials and twist angles.

Donor-derived GD2-specific CAR T cells in relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma.

Allogeneic chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells targeting disialoganglioside-GD2 (ALLO_GD2-CART01) could be a therapeutic option for patients with relapsed or refractory, high-risk neuroblastoma (r/r HR-NB) whose tumors did not respond to autologous GD2-CART01 or who have profound lymphopenia. We present a case series of five children with HR-NB refractory to more than three different lines of therapy who received ALLO_GD2-CART01 in a hospital exemption setting. Four of them had previously received allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Methane emissions from the Nord Stream subsea pipeline leaks.

The amount of methane released to the atmosphere from the Nord Stream subsea pipeline leaks remains uncertain, as reflected in a wide range of estimates. A lack of information regarding the temporal variation in atmospheric emissions has made it challenging to reconcile pipeline volumetric (bottom-up) estimates with measurement-based (top-down) estimates. Here we simulate pipeline rupture emission rates and integrate these with methane dissolution and sea-surface outgassing estimates to model the evolution of atmospheric emissions from the leaks.

Neural reuse can drive organisms to generalize knowledge across various tasks during learning. However, existing devices mostly focus on architectures rather than network functions, lacking the mimic capabilities of neural reuse. Here, we demonstrate a rational device designed based on ferroionic CuInPS, to accomplish the neural reuse function, enabled by dynamic allocation of the ferro-ionic phase.
