We report fabrication of multifunctional transition and temperature-responsive contact lenses that undergo colorimetric switch in response to UV light and physiological temperature changes.
We explore the transition from quantum to classical electrodynamics in light–matter interactions using a novel measurement-based approach. Our findings demonstrate that classical electron–photon couplings can be explained through weak measurement.
The polymer dielectrics with carboxyl groups are used to investigate the polarity modulation effect, which can effectively modulate a device to simulate artificial vision systems and to decode light information.

This study discover the potential of using 3D label-free CD8 + T cell morphology as a reliable biomarker for the diagnosis and prognosis of sepsis, highlighting its rapid analysis and minimal blood sample requirements.
We demonstrate the experimental realization of fractal photonic anomalous Floquet topological insulators for generating multiple single-photon chiral edge states in a single lattice fabricated by the femtosecond laser direct writing.
High transparent perovskite nanocrystals/polystyrene nanocomposites can be fabricated by a two-type ligand strategy and have enormous potential to serve as a new kind of light guide plate.
We develop a double-layer thin-film structure for active-matrix displays using InGaN/AlGaInP heterogeneous integration and demonstrate a prototype of full-color micro-LED micro-display with a pixel density of 391 ppi.
The first topological Dirac-vortex microcavity lasers on silicon are experimentally realized. Operating under room-temperature continuous-wave conditions, these lasers mark an important step toward integrating topological lasers with CMOS-compatible optoelectronic systems.
Integration of curved GaAs metagratings onto VCSELs enables a compact on-chip illumination solution for high-contrast microscopy, making it a versatile choice for light sources in lab-on-a-chip devices.
We unlock the height as accessible parameter of all-dielectric metasurfaces, allowing polarization-selective interaction of their high-Q eigenstates with light of different helicity and promoting ultra-narrow maximally chiral optical resonances.
Significant improvement of quantum efficiency and thermal stability of NIR-emitting Ca3Y2-2x(ZnZr)xGe3O12:Cr was achieved by chemical unit cosubstitution, benefiting from valence reduction of Cr4+ to Cr3+ and reconstructed rigid crystal structure.
The study introduces a novel approach to information encoding using 2D random wrinkles PUFs in a 3D framework, utilizing polarization manipulation and data extracting functions to enhance security in authentication systems.
