High frequency magnetism is generally associated with metamaterials or bulk magneto-electric solids. However, magneto-electric interactions can achieve magnetic response at the molecular level in essentially all dielectric materials. Classical and quantum models of nonlinear interactions driven by the combined forces of optical electric and magnetic fields are reviewed in this paper. Experimental conditions are also identified under which electric and magnetic field-driven interactions induce enhanced magnetic dipole response as well as a longitudinal Hall effect. Several mechanisms that account for dynamic enhancement of magnetic response are identified, including a torque-driven exchange of orbital angular momentum for rotational angular momentum. Experiments on this topic are summarized, and connections are established between electric and magneto-electric susceptibilities. The review concludes by anticipating novel photonic technology reliant on dynamic magneto-electric effects.","PeriodicalId":414,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Quantum Electronics","volume":"8 8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142867543","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}

Such non-uniform distribution of elements detrimentally impacts color purity and long-term device stability in PeLEDs, highlighting the need to address elemental segregation issues. Additionally, quasi-2D perovskites have garnered attention for their potential to mitigate ion migration while maintaining superior optoelectronic properties attributable to the quantum confinement effect. Nevertheless, precise control over dimensionality remains challenging due to the thermodynamically favored 2D/3D phase separation, hindering efficient energy transfer.

However, the amplification effect is achieved through post-selection, which leads to a significant decrease in signal intensity. Consequently, there is a heated debate regarding the trade-off between the amplification effect and the success probability of post-selection, questioning whether WVA surpasses conventional measurement (CM) in terms of measurement precision. Extensive research indicates that the specific theoretical assumptions and experimental conditions play crucial roles in determining the respective advantages of WVA and CM. WVA provides new perspectives for recognizing the important role of post-selection in precision metrology. It demonstrates significant advantages in two aspects: (i) WVA based on the phase space interaction provides feasible strategies to practically achieve the Heisenberg-scaling precision using only classical resources. (ii) WVA exhibits robustness against certain types of technical noise and imperfections of detectors. Moreover, WVA allows for various modifications to extend the applicable scope and enhance the metrological performance in corresponding situations. Despite substantial progress in recent years, the inherent connection between the advantages of WVA and its unique features remains incompletely understood. In this paper, we systematically review the recent advances in the WVA scheme, with a particular focus on the ultimate precision of WVA under diverse conditions. Our objective is to provide a comprehensive perspective on the benefits of WVA in precision measurement and facilitate the realization of its full potential.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":414,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Quantum Electronics","volume":"96 ","pages":"Article 100518"},"PeriodicalIF":7.4,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141411528","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}

Combining these approaches with various probes and nanostructures gives up a new path for theranostic applications in brain tissues. The diverse optical properties of head tissues such as the scalp, skull, cerebrospinal fluid, and brain tissues result in considerable photon scattering and absorption. Diffusion of photons inside head tissues decreases the optical imaging quality and limits the optical resolutions of cellular and neural treatments. Tissue optical clearing (TOC) was set up more than a century ago to make tissue transparent by immersing it in liquids with a matching RI as the tissue. This approach has lately gained popularity in the field of brain imaging. The physical fundamentals of optical clearing (OC) procedures for brain tissue, such as RI matching with chemical agents, dehydration, delipidation, decalcification, hyperhydration, and innovative hybrid brain OC methods, are explored here. This study covers critical issues such as choosing the best brain OC methods and optimizing wavelength and laser energy to control tissue optical properties. Here, innovative ways for decreasing photon scattering based on immersion procedures and induced heating tunnels are discussed. In addition, simulation methods of photon migration in brain tissues (based on random approaches) are investigated, paving the way for the proper brain OC strategy.
