Carbon nanostructures were prepared via pulsed laser ablation in liquid (LAL) using a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser (1064 nm), enabling morphology tuning by controlling the pulse without chemical additives or surfactants. To enhance photodetection performance, trace-level AuNPs (0.00001 mM) were integrated onto the CNFs surface, forming a CNFs@AuNPs/p-Si heterojunction. Structural and morphological analyses confirmed the formation of nanofibrous carbon networks with well-dispersed Au nanoparticles. Optical characterization revealed pulse-dependent band gap modulation and pronounced localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of AuNPs. Electrical measurements demonstrated rectifying heterojunction behavior with significantly enhanced photocurrent under illumination. The hybrid CNFs@AuNPs device exhibited improved spectral responsivity (99.6 mA/W at 808 nm), high specific detectivity (1.59 × 10<sup>13</sup> cm·Hz<sup>1</sup>/<sup>2</sup>·W⁻<sup>1</sup>), and external quantum efficiency exceeding 150%. The EQE values above 100% indicate a photoconductive gain mechanism, attributed to plasmon-assisted carrier generation, hot-electron injection from AuNPs, and extended carrier lifetime relative to transit time. Furthermore, the device showed fast and stable photoresponse with sub-second rise and fall times. The simultaneous enhancement of responsivity, detectivity, and temporal response at ultralow Au loading highlights the effectiveness of plasmon-induced carrier engineering in a simple laser-based platform.

Conventional DIC approaches commonly exploit the spatial–temporal continuity of object deformation to boost measurement precision and robustness. While existing deep learning-based DIC methods have effectively leveraged spatial continuity, delivering marked improvements in accuracy, efficiency, and anti-interference capability, they remain limited by underutilization of temporal continuity. Specifically, current DIC networks only take a reference image and a deformed image as input, disregarding historical deformation sequences. To overcome this constraint, this work presents Temporal-DICnet, a sequential-image-input network that incorporates temporal information for multi-frame deformation field estimation. The proposed framework comprises three core modules: a feature encoder that extracts image features and constructs 4D correlation cost volumes between the reference and each deformed frame; a motion encoder that enables inter-frame motion feature propagation and fusion; and a deformation prediction module with convolutional residual blocks used to refine the output deformation field. Experimental results on synthetic datasets reveal that Temporal-DICnet reduces the mean absolute error (MAE) by more than 50% relative to the ALDIC method.
