While the sun has been long used as a renewable energy resource, only recently the cold universe is being exploited for radiative cooling as well as power generation. There are emerging opportunities of utilizing both the sun and the cold universe for enhanced solar energy harvesting, all-day power-generation, and simultaneous solar energy conversion and passive cooling. In this review, we provide an overview on recent efforts to synergize radiative cooling and solar energy harvesting. We discuss different strategies, their optical design, and the achieved performance. We finally provide remarks on challenges and an outlook on future directions in synergistically utilizing the cold universe and the sun.","PeriodicalId":13094,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics","volume":"31 6: Photon. for Climate Chng.

Thyroid cancer is categorized as a malignant neoplasm within the endocrine system. Fine-needle aspiration cytology remains the benchmark for thyroid cancer detection; however, the accuracy of the procedure depends on the practitioner’s expertise. Numerous challenges are associated with this process, such as obtaining inadequate cellular samples, mispuncturing the target lesion, and collecting nonrepresentative cell samples. These issues hinder proper cellular evaluation and increase the likelihood of misdiagnosis, ultimately impacting patient outcomes and the treatment trajectory. This research primarily aims to improve the diagnostic accuracy of thyroid cancer by introducing an innovative computer-aided diagnostic tool that leverages advanced deep learning techniques. Second-harmonic microscopy enables the fine extraction of morphological characteristics of collagen fibers within thyroid tissues, revealing significant differences in the distribution and organization of collagen fibers between normal and malignant tissues. In this study, we quantified the morphological alterations of collagen fibers by initially analyzing second-harmonic generation (SHG) images through a collagen scoring system based on feature extraction via least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression. Model efficacy was assessed using receiver operating characteristic curves. Furthermore, we classified normal and malignant thyroid tissues in the validation cohort through three distinct deep-learning architectures (Mobile Neural Networks Version 3 (MobileNetV3), Visual Geometry Group 16(VGG16), and Pyramid Vision Transformer v2 (PVTv2) in combination with SHG image data. Overall, MobileNetV3 achieved the best classification performance (87.4%). This study <bold>provides preliminary evidence for</b> the effectiveness of deep-learning algorithms in differentiating between malignant and normal thyroid tissues. This significant advancement offers valuable technological support for detecting thyroid cancer in clinical environments and is expected to enhance both the accuracy and efficiency of diagnostic practices.","PeriodicalId":13094,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics","volume":"32 4: Adv.

Here, we experimentally demonstrate optical polarizers by integrating 2D molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂) films onto silicon photonic waveguides. High-quality monolayer MoS₂ films with highly anisotropic light absorption are synthesized via a low-pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) method and subsequently transferred onto silicon-on-insulator (SOI) nanowire waveguides to fabricate integrated optical polarizers. Detailed measurements are carried out for the fabricated devices with various MoS₂ film coating lengths and silicon waveguide geometry. The results show that a maximum polarization-dependent loss of ∼21 dB is achieved, together with a high figure of merit of ∼4.2. In addition, the hybrid waveguide polarizers exhibit broad operation bandwidth exceeding ∼100 nm and excellent power durability. These results highlight the strong potential for on-chip integration of 2D MoS₂ films to implement high-performance polarization selective devices.","PeriodicalId":13094,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics","volume":"32 2: 3-D Horizons in Photonics: Integrated Circuits","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2025-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145210125","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Femtosecond laser micromachining is used to introduce a pair of open channels on a hollow core fiber (HCF) based anti-resonant reflecting waveguide. Results indicate that the anti-resonant reflecting guiding mechanism still exists even when large rectangular channels are introduced to the cavity wall. The strength of the anti-resonant reflecting effect is influenced by the geometric size of the rectangular channels. Sea water salinity measurement is realized with such a device. The intensity at the resonant wavelength increases with increasing salinity, exhibiting a sensitivity of 2.05 dB/% within a 2%-7% saline concentration range, while the transmission Dips shift toward shorter wavelength with a sensitivity of -0.84 nm/%. The temperature sensitivity is 0.049 nm/°C across a temperature range of 30°C-80°C. By tracing the wavelength change of two transmission Dips, the salinity and temperature can be determined simultaneously. The proposed device has advantages such as simple structure and fast response, which has promising applications in marine environmental science and medical biology.","PeriodicalId":13094,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics","volume":"31 6: Photon. for Climate Chng.

Current treatments, including vascular-targeted photodynamic therapy (V-PDT), exhibit variable efficacy due to interpatient heterogeneity in vascular characteristics. Here, we present a multi-parametric quantitative method using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) to characterize PWS lesions, analyzing 26 vascular indicators in 100 patients. Our method effectively discriminates patients with distinct therapeutic responses and identifies morphological vascular changes linked to treatment outcomes. By integrating quantitative vascular data with clinical parameters via machine learning, we developed a predictive model that distinguished no-response (NR) from moderate-improvement (MI) and high-improvement (HI) groups with accuracies of 75% and 91%, respectively. This study highlights the importance of understanding vascular pathology to advance personalized treatment strategies for PWS, offering a novel framework for non-invasive evaluation and management of vascular lesions.","PeriodicalId":13094,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics","volume":"32 4: Adv.

Until now, their primary use has been for imaging of difficultto- access areas in medical and chemical applications. This work explores the optical and communication properties of FBs as light guiders to connect multiple optical heads to a central laser communication terminal in high altitude platforms, specifically, on the properties of FBs as part of a receiver module. We characterize the optical properties of a 1.829 m-long FB from Schott AG, designed for image guiding of visible wavelengths, both at 850 nm and at 1550 nm. A 1.25 Gbit/s data transmission using on-off keying modulation at 1550 nm is demonstrated with bit error ratio (BER) measurements. To evaluate the impact of atmospheric turbulence, a spatial light modulator is used to simulate an air-to-air optical link between two aircrafts at an altitude of 10 km, separated by 20 km. Including transmission losses, to achieve a BER of <inline-formula><tex-math>$10^{-6}$</tex-math></inline-formula>, the FB introduces a link budget penalty of 6.55 dB in the absence of turbulence and 7.94 dB under turbulent conditions, compared to an optical link without it. Future improvements for FB performances in the infrared C-band are expected through optimized material selection.","PeriodicalId":13094,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics","volume":"32 1: Advances in Free Space Laser Communications","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2025-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145089975","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
