Existing fog-penetrating LiDAR approaches, such as single-photon detection, time gating, and deep learning, remain limited by strong noise sensitivity, incomplete full-time-domain noise suppression, and the inability to improve the raw signal-to-noise ratio. Here, vortex coherence filtering (VCF) is introduced into a coaxial scanned single-photon LiDAR architecture for 3D imaging in dense fog. The method enables fog-penetrating imaging under dense-fog conditions with visibility as low as 0.61 m and improves the signal-to-background ratio by 37.56 times. 3D reconstruction of targets with different surface types is also demonstrated, and the method is shown to be compatible with existing noise-suppression strategies, enabling further improvement of the signal-to-noise ratio. These results show that VCF can serve as an effective optical front-end noise-suppression strategy for improving dense-fog single-photon imaging performance, and provide a feasible route toward active imaging and environmental perception under adverse weather conditions.","PeriodicalId":204,"journal":{"name":"Laser & Photonics Reviews","volume":"28 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.0,"publicationDate":"2026-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147755085","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"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}

However, the highly energetic hot carriers (electrons and holes) generated via plasmon non-radiative decay suffer from ultrashort lifetimes on the femtosecond and picosecond scale. This rapid relaxation severely limits their ability to participate in most conventional reactions. Therefore, prolonging the lifespan of hot carriers by separating and localizing them at specific active sites is necessary. This review focuses on recent strategies designed to trap and accumulate hot carriers to enhance their efficient extraction and utilization. We systemically discuss fundamental approaches, including constructing metal-semiconductor Schottky heterojunctions, engineering heterometallic structures, functionalizing metal nanoparticles with surface molecules, and applying external stimuli. Furthermore, we highlight how the localized accumulation of hot carriers enables multi-carrier collaboration catalysis and highly selective product generation. Finally, the current challenges and future prospects of hot carrier accumulation in plasmonic photocatalysis are discussed as well.","PeriodicalId":204,"journal":{"name":"Laser & Photonics Reviews","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.0,"publicationDate":"2026-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147751494","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"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}

Recent experimental and theoretical studies have demonstrated that the balance between pure-quartic dispersion and SPM enables the formation of stable pure- higher-order dispersion solitons. Here, we systematically summarize the experimental implementations and numerical simulation studies of PQSs in diverse cavity configurations, which used different approaches for constructing a pure-quartic dispersion regime. PQSs' special energy-width scaling characteristics and temporal oscillating tail structure may bring new applications to the field of ultrafast lasers.
