Their mechanical compliance enables intimate contact with soft biological tissues, allowing optical signals to be modulated by external mechanical stimuli. Such characteristics make flexible laser-based platforms particularly suitable for mechanical sensing and physiological signal detection. In this work, we present a flexible microlaser array-based photonic platform designed for mechanical sensing and pulse monitoring. By integrating microscale laser emitters into a soft, transparent matrix with a microstructured architecture, the device maintains stable laser emission while responding to external pressure and dynamic strain. The optical response of the microlaser array exhibits sensitivity to mechanical perturbations, enabling the detection of periodic signals associated with the human pulse. This work highlights the potential of flexible laser photonics as a versatile tool for noninvasive mechanical and physiological sensing in wearable healthcare applications.","PeriodicalId":53,"journal":{"name":"Nano Letters","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.8,"publicationDate":"2026-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149221680","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, extending their functionality to simultaneously measure temperature and light intensity remains a challenge, as the luminescent response is highly sensitive to both the environment composition and its temperature. In this work, we combine deep-learning methods with large-scale spectral data sets to investigate the reliability of Er/Yb-doped particles to function as dual sensors. Spectral data are collected from single particles levitating in vacuum and ensembles of particles in application-relevant wet and dry media. Although traditional ratiometric methods reliably retrieve temperature irrespective of the environment and specific experimental apparatus, they fail to disentangle the complex dependencies needed for dual sensing. Our trained models overcome these limitations, accurately predicting both temperature and laser power despite environmental variability. This approach opens a new route toward robust, data-driven sensing with upconverting particles in complex or fluctuating conditions.","PeriodicalId":53,"journal":{"name":"Nano Letters","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.8,"publicationDate":"2026-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149218894","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The tensile-side PZT remains comparatively lattice-continuous and accommodates bending mainly through polarization rotation and domain reorganization. The compressive-side PZT exhibits dislocations, slip-related lattice offsets, surface steps, and localized strain concentration. Curvature-series observations and images across U-shaped and N-shaped regions indicate that the defect-rich region follows the local compressive stress state. Bending also breaks the approximate electrostatic symmetry of the two PZT/STO interfaces: the tensile side shows weakened negative interfacial contrast, whereas the compressive side shows a dislocation-associated increase in relative projected potential. These results identify curvature as a variable for selecting polar versus plastic relaxation pathways and modulating interfacial electrostatic landscapes in flexible ferroelectric heterostructures.","PeriodicalId":53,"journal":{"name":"Nano Letters","volume":"51 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.8,"publicationDate":"2026-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149221739","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES) offers direct access to their electronic structure. However, the intrinsic surface sensitivity of this technique complicates the identification of the observed features: Surface states can be misinterpreted as the spin-split counterpart of bulk bands. This issue becomes particularly relevant for layered intercalated systems, where micrometer-sized domains with distinct terminations often coexist on a cleaved surface. We discuss this scenario for CoNb4Se8, one of the first established layered altermagnets. Supported by density functional theory calculations, we employ micro-ARPES to probe individual domains and reveal two contrasting surface terminations. We identify Co- and Se-terminated domains with characteristic surface states arising from bulk-surface connectivity of the material. Our work shows that termination-dependent surface contributions are essential for the reliable spectroscopic identification of altermagnetism and for assessing its presence across the family of layered materials.","PeriodicalId":53,"journal":{"name":"Nano Letters","volume":"28 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.8,"publicationDate":"2026-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149218889","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While magnetic order in these systems is typically associated with bulk-like monolayers, its relation to interfacial phases remains largely unexplored. Here we show that in CoBr2 grown on Au(111), long-range magnetic order already emerges in a structurally distinct interfacial precursor phase, prior to the formation of the bulk-like monolayer. During growth, this phase evolves into the monolayer, accompanied by a transition from molecular-like states to semiconducting behavior. Spin-resolved STM reveals an inhomogeneous in-plane magnetic response that is locally suppressed by point defects, whereas macroscopic XMCD demonstrates robust long-range order with pronounced in-plane anisotropy. These results establish that long-range magnetic order in CoBr2 does not require an ideal bulk-like monolayer but can emerge from interfacial phases with distinct electronic and structural properties, enabling magnetism beyond the monolayer limit.","PeriodicalId":53,"journal":{"name":"Nano Letters","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.8,"publicationDate":"2026-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149218885","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we demonstrate that silica (SiO2) nanoconfinement thermodynamically elevates the melting point (Tm) of Au NPs through confinement-induced compressive pressure. Atomic-resolution in situ heating scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) combined with local Fourier crystallinity mapping reveals that bare Au NPs lose crystallinity at 1,000 °C, whereas SiO2-encapsulated Au cores (Au@SiO2) remain crystalline. Accordingly, in situ heating TEM shows bare Au NPs progressively merge while Au@SiO2 remain structurally isolated. Temperature-dependent lattice-parameter measurements reveal significantly suppressed thermal expansion of confined Au cores, corresponding to an estimated compressive stress of 4–5 GPa. Finite-element simulations support this estimate, showing that SiO2 shell shrinkage generates several-GPa core pressure, with thicker shells producing higher pressure and greater Tm elevation. These findings establish nanoconfinement-induced pressure as a general thermomechanical strategy for stabilizing metallic NPs under extreme thermal environments.","PeriodicalId":53,"journal":{"name":"Nano Letters","volume":"3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.8,"publicationDate":"2026-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149218886","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We use first-principles calculations to determine the polarization-resolved linear, second-order, and third-order susceptibilities of multilayer h-BN containing vacancies and carbon-based defect complexes. Defects weakly affect the linear response but strongly enhance nonlinear susceptibilities through symmetry breaking and resonant defect transitions. Carbon complexes produce orders-of-magnitude increases in second-harmonic generation and distinct polarization-dependent spectra that differentiate defects with identical composition but different geometry. Third-harmonic generation is also enhanced, although it is less sensitive to local structure. Measurements on carbon-doped h-BN qualitatively support these trends.

Although various fabrication methods have been reported, photoelectrochemical approaches using CPL as the chiral source are attractive because of their simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and scalability. However, previous CPL-based methods have required two or more steps, including the preparation of anisotropic precursors. Here, we demonstrate a single-step method for the selective growth of chiral PbO2 nanostructures with handedness dictated by CPL at a chiral yield of 87%, by simply irradiating a transparent electrode with CPL, without using precursor nanoparticles. The obtained structures exhibit well-defined spiral morphologies and high chiroptical activity with maximum dissymmetry factors (g-factors) ranging from 0.006 to 0.010. This conceptual framework, involving symmetry breaking through random nucleation and Mie-resonance-mediated spiral growth under CPL, may be applicable to the template-free fabrication of various chiral nanomaterials.","PeriodicalId":53,"journal":{"name":"Nano Letters","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.8,"publicationDate":"2026-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149218893","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
