Open AccessWavefront sha** of infrared light through a subwavelength hole
Light passing through a subwavelength hole in an opaque plate is a fundamental concern in both optical science and applications. Using both simulations and experiments, we show that, when a subwavelength hole ...

Open AccessBlack hole entropy and viscosity bound in Horndeski gravity
Horndeski gravities are theories of gravity coupled to a scalar field, in which the action contains an additional non-minimal quadratic coupling of the scalar, through its first derivative, to the Einstein ten...

Open AccessAn all-optical modulator based on a stereo graphene–microfiber structure
An in-line, all-optical fiber modulator based on a stereo graphene–microfiber structure (GMF) utilizing the lab-on-rod technique was demonstrated in this study. Owing to its unique spring-like geometry, an ult...
