It is of paramount importance to many applications, such as optical sensing, antennas, and imaging. However, the superscattering phenomenon is generally accompanied with nonzero forward-scattered light. Here, we find the possibility of creating the exotic phenomenon of superscattering with zero forward-scattered light by exploiting the optical gain. The underlying mechanism is that the optical gain can facilitate the realization of not only the single-channel superscattering but also the second Kerker effect, which is intrinsically related to the zero forward scattering phenomenon. Because of the importance of the second Kerker effect in regulating the directionality of superscattering, this revealed phenomenon is termed as Kerker-superscattering.</p>","PeriodicalId":19540,"journal":{"name":"Optics letters","volume":"50 12","pages":"3824-3827"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144289554","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study introduces a tunable multifocal liquid crystal microlens array (TMLCMA) with a triple-electrode structure and vertically aligned liquid crystals exhibiting negative dielectric anisotropy, designed to mitigate speckle noise. The TMLCMA operates in three modes: monofocal concave, multifocal concave, and multifocal convex, depending on the voltage driving scheme used. In monofocal modes, the speckle contrast decreases from 0.46 to 0.35; in multifocal modes, it is further reduced from 0.46 to 0.15. These multifocal properties effectively disrupt laser coherence, leading to a greater reduction in speckle noise compared to a conventional monofocal microlens array.

Here, we demonstrate a high-precision transverse displacement sensor leveraging a phase-matched Pancharatnam-Berry (PB) metasurface and trapezoidal prism configuration, which simplifies optical alignment by eliminating stringent Talbot self-imaging requirements. By synergistically matching the phase gradient of the PB metasurface with the prism geometry, we enable robust signal extraction through the photonic spin Hall effect, while a near-infrared source (<i>λ</i> = 1550 nm) suppresses environmental interference. Differential amplification further rejects common-mode noise from laser fluctuations and electronic drift. The system achieves a displacement resolution of 46.18 pm under quasi-static conditions (0.2-100 Hz) and 124.86 pm across the full operational bandwidth (0.2-1.25 MHz), surpassing conventional polarization-encoded schemes in both sensitivity and practicality.
