文摘The ability to noninvasively manipulate and isolate specific cell populations in vivo is critical for advancing real-time diagnostics,precision medicine,and immunological research.Here,we present a novel and broadly applicable optical trapping system based on a custom-designed 2×3 optical tweezer array,which enables the real-time interception and manipulation of circulating leukocytes in live animals.By utilizing intrinsic velocity differences between leukocytes and red blood cells,the system achieves stable trapping of individual leukocytes in vessels 15-20μm in diameter and decelerates multiple cells in vessels greater than 20μm.Notably,it also enables the optical blockage of lymphatic vessels exceeding 50μm,a previously unreported capability.This label-free,noninvasive approach operates without repeated blood draws and is compatible with diverse vessel geometries and flow dynamics.The system offers a generalizable solution for in vivo cell extraction and analysis,paving the way for high-precision single-cell technologies in biomedical research and clinical translation.
文摘Compact size,high brightness,and wide field of view(FOV)are key requirements for long-wave infrared imagers used in military surveillance or night navigation.However,to meet the imaging requirements of high resolution and wide FOV,infrared optical systems often adopt complex optical lens groups,which will increase the size and weight of the optical system.In this paper,a strategy based on wavefront coding(WFC)is proposed to design a compact wide-FOV infrared imager.A cubic phase mask is inserted into the pupil plane of the infrared imager to correct the aberration.The simulated results show that,the WFC infrared imager has good imaging quality in a wide FOV of±16°.In addition,the WFC infrared imager achieves compactness with its 40 mm×40 mm×40 mm size.A fast focal ratio of 1 combined with an entrance pupil diameter of 25 mm ensures brightness.This work is of significance for designing a compact wide-FOV infrared imager.
文摘Filters,as a key component in the photoelectric detection system,can simplify the optical system and improve detection efficiency.Based on the usage requirements,a visible/near-infrared filter film with up to 5 wavebands needs to be designed and prepared,while simultaneously satisfying high reflection in 2 wave-bands and high transmittance in 3 wavebands.Therefore,we have conducted a systematic study on the film design,thin film preparation process,and control accuracy of film layer thickness.In this work,the short-wave pass film system is superimposed with the long-wave pass film system,and the number of cycles and matching coefficient of the film system are tuned to meet the requirements of cut-off band.Additionally,Smith method was used to match bandpass film system to optimize the transmission band and complete the visible/near infrared multiband laser filter film design.In the preparation process,combined with the sensitiv-ity of the film layer,inverse analysis is used to invert the film layer monitored by each optical monitoring chip.The optical control scheme with weak optical signal in the monitoring process is simulated and correc-ted,and the monitoring wavelength with stronger optical signal is matched,resulting in an improvement of the control accuracy for the film thickness and the transmittance in the specified wavelength range.Ulti-mately,the actual physical thickness is 9.66μm,and the error with the theoretical design thickness is less than 0.4%,and the transmittance of the specified 3 wavebands exceeds 99%.The average transmittance of the cut-off bands at the 455−500 nm and 910−1000 nm is 0.45% and 0.16%,respectively.

文摘We report the SrII optical lattice clock at the National Time Service Center(NTSC).In this system,a blackbody radiation shield with movable lattice mitigates blackbody radiation shifts through active temperature control.A shallow optical lattice with minimal tunneling minimizes AC Stark shifts.Phase-locked counter-propagating lattice beams and conductive vacuum viewports further reduce systematic uncertainties and a novel initial-state preparation method simplifies the system.Clock transition spectra achieve a linewidth of 2.5 Hz with a 400 ms clock pulse,and self-comparison stability reaches 5.1×10^(-16)at 1 s.These advancements give this clock the potential to be a critical platform for realizing outstanding systematic uncertainties in the future.

文摘Gastric cancer,including stomach tumors,poses significant health challenges due to late-stage diagnosis and limited early detection methods.Accurate imaging and precise tumor margin demarcation are critical for effective treatment planning and improved patient outcomes.Conventional imaging techniques,such as endoscopy and histopathology,provide valuable diagnostic information but cannot offer real-time assessment.We aim to explore the application of optical coherence tomography(OCT),combined with statistical and machine learning methods,for rapid tumor margin demarcation in gastrointestinal(GI)cancer tissues in exvivo.GI tumor specimens from 17 patients were imaged intraoperatively with OCT.Quantitative features were extracted from the images,and statistical and machine learning analyses were applied to distinguish tissue types.Subsequent histopathological evaluation was used as the reference standard for validation.The combination of OCT imaging and data-driven analysis enables clear differentiation between healthy,marginal and tumor tissues in near real-time.The KNN model achieved the highest classification accuracy(0.921±0.040),with SVM(0.906±0.038)and Extra Trees(0.901±0.034)also demonstrating robust performance in discriminating tissue margins.OCT findings demonstrate strong agreement with histopathology.Integrated with statistical and machine learning techniques,OCT enables rapid assessment of GI tumor margins.This approach provides quantitative objectivity and real-time feedback,closely approximating histopathological analysis and supporting improved surgical decision-making.

文摘AIM:To evaluate the agreement of axial length(AL),anterior chamber parameters,and total cornea power obtained by swept-source optical coherence tomography(SS-OCT)-based and Scheimpflug-based optical biometers in myopic children.METHODS:AL,steep keratometry(K),flat K,posterior corneal keratometry(PK),total keratometry(TK),anterior chamber depth(ACD),horizontal corneal diameter(CD),and central corneal thickness(CCT)were obtained using IOL Master 700 and Pentacam AXL.The agreement between the devices was evaluated using intraclass correlation coefficients(ICC),Bland-Altman plots,and astigmatism vector analysis.RESULTS:Totally 175 myopic children(48.5%male)with a mean age of 10.29±2.14y were enrolled.The ICC and Bland-Altman plots indicated a satisfactory agreement for AL,ACD,and CCT.The mean difference in CD of-0.31±0.30 mm was considered clinically significant(>0.2 mm).Additionally,measurements of K and TK obtained from the IOL Master 700 showed good agreement.Nevertheless,there were clinically significant differences observed in PK,simulated keratometry(simK),total cornea power,and astigmatism(at least 10%of the cases with a difference of>10 degrees in meridian)between the two devices.CONCLUSION:The study findings demonstrate a significant difference in K,PK,astigmatism,and CD,indicating that the two optical biometers cannot be considered interchangeable.Therefore,it is recommended to utilize one kind device for follow-up examinations in myopic children.

文摘Objective:To investigate the effects of infrared lamp irradiation therapy on the risk of arteriovenous fistula thrombosis in patients undergoing heparin-free dialysis and those receiving appropriate reductions in heparin anticoagulation dosage during dialysis.Methods:This study was conducted from January 1,2021,to December 31,2021,involving 19 patients who regularly underwent heparin-free dialysis for more than three months at our hospital,totaling 70 patient encounters.Each patient underwent heparin-free dialysis for more than two cycles during the experimental period.The study employed a self-control design.Prior to the experiment,an experienced medical team established an emergency management group and formulated relevant emergency measures,ensuring the long-term stability of patients’vital signs before enrollment.Patients requiring heparin-free dialysis as per medical advice underwent the procedure according to the treatment manual without additional interventions.During the second heparin-free dialysis session within the experimental period,patients received 40 minutes of infrared lamp irradiation as an adjunctive therapy during the dialysis process.The study observed coagulation in the dialyzer,blood biochemical indicators,the occurrence of adverse reactions,and patient satisfaction during treatment.Results:The use of heparin-free dialysis combined with infrared irradiation therapy resulted in better coagulation outcomes compared to heparin-free dialysis alone(p<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in blood biochemical indicators between patients receiving heparin-free dialysis combined with infrared irradiation therapy and those receiving heparin-free dialysis alone(p>0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the number of patients experiencing adverse clinical symptoms such as angina,dizziness,and lower limb cramps,leading to treatment interruption,between those receiving heparin-free dialysis combined with infrared therapy and those receiving heparin-free dialysis alone(p>0.05).Patient satisfaction was higher among those receiving heparin-free dialysis combined with infrared therapy compared to those receiving heparin-free dialysis alone(p<0.05).Conclusion:The use of infrared lamp irradiation therapy as an adjunct to heparin-free dialysis can reduce the risk of coagulation to a certain extent without affecting the stability of core blood biochemical indicators in patients.It also reduces the incidence of clinical adverse reactions caused by coagulation,demonstrating good safety and improving patient satisfaction.
文摘The airborne diffusion of saliva droplets during respiratory activities is one of the major factors in the spread of infections.During the COVID-19 pandemic,the use of protective face masks was essential to reduce the risk of infection and spread of SARS-CoV-2.The face mask is able to significantly reduce the saliva droplet emission in front of the person.However,the use of masks also produces a particle leakage towards the back of the person,which could increase the infection risk of people behind the subject.Most of the experimental investigations applied invasive and/or complex experimental techniques to evaluate the face masks leakage.The primary objective of this study is to develop a novel,non-invasive methodology for assessing rearward droplet emission associated with the use of protective face masks.Specifically,a thermographic analysis of the thermal footprint released during ordinary and extraordinary respiratory activities is presented,evaluating the maximum temperature,the detection time,and the spread area of the thermal footprint.Both surgical and FFP2 face masks were tested.Two different subjects were involved in the experimentation to evaluate the influence of face conformation.The findings indicate that the area influenced by droplet dispersion is larger when wearing a surgical mask compared to an FFP2 mask,with the highest recorded temperatures observed for the surgical mask.The thermal footprint was found to be strongly dependent on individual facial morphology and mask fit.Notably,the FFP2 mask also altered the position of the thermal footprint,which was primarily confined to the region near the neck.

文摘Scalability remains a major challenge in building practical fault-tolerant quantum computers.Currently,the largest number of qubits achieved across leading quantum platforms ranges from hundreds to thousands.In atom arrays,scalability is primarily constrained by the capacity to generate large numbers of optical tweezers,and conventional techniques using acousto-optic deflectors or spatial light modulators struggle to produce arrays much beyond∼10,000 tweezers.Moreover,these methods require additional microscope objectives to focus the light into micrometer-sized spots,which further complicates system integration and scalability.Here,we demonstrate the experimental generation of an optical tweezer array containing 280×280 spots using a metasurface,nearly an order of magnitude more than most existing systems.The metasurface leverages a large number of subwavelength phase-control pixels to engineer the wavefront of the incident light,enabling both large-scale tweezer generation and direct focusing into micron-scale spots without the need for a microscope.This result shifts the scalability bottleneck for atom arrays from the tweezer generation hardware to the available laser power.Furthermore,the array shows excellent intensity uniformity exceeding 90%,making it suitable for homogeneous single-atom loading and paving the way for trapping arrays of more than 10,000 atoms in the near future.

文摘Detecting biomarkers in body fluids by optical lateral flow immune assay(LFIA) technology provides rapid access to disease information for early diagnosis.LFIA is based on an antigen-antibody reaction and is rapidly becoming the preferred choice of physicians and patients for point-of-care testing due to its simplicity,cost-effectiveness,and rapid detection.Observing the optical signal change from the colloidal gold of the traditional LFIA strip has been widely applied for various biomarkers detection in body fluids.Despite the significant progress,rapid real-time detection of color changes in the colloidal gold by the naked eye still faces many limitations,such as large errors and the inability to quantify and accurately detect.New optical LFIA strip technology has emerged in recent years to extend its application scenarios for achieving quantitative detection such as fluorescence,afterglow,and chemiluminescence.Herein,we summarized the development of optical LFIA technology from single to hyphenated optical signals for biomarkers detection in body fluids from invasive and non-invasive sources.Moreover,the challenge and outlook of optical LFIA strip technology are highlighted to inspire the designing of next-generation diagnostic platforms.

文摘Improving the optoelectronic behavior and stress-deformation stability of conjugated materials is crucial for the realization of their potential applications in flexible optoelectronics.To tune the emission behavior and mechanical property of molecular crystals simultaneously via supramolecular salt strategy is rarely reported,which is very important to improve their photophysical behavior and softness for the fabrication of flexible light-emitting device.Herein,supramolecular salt approach has been successfully applied to synthesize two elastic organic fluorescent crystals(CMOH-Py-Cl and CMOH-Py-Br)derived from non-emissive and brittle pyridine-substituted coumarin derivative(CMOH-Py).Their elastic properties can be attributed to the prevalent presence of numerous weak interactions introduced by halogen atoms,which are beneficial to the absorption and release of mechanical energy.Furthermore,density functional theory(DFT)calculations demonstrated a narrowing of the HOMO-LUMO energy gaps from CMOH-Py to CMOH-Py-Cl/CMOH-Py-Br via supramolecular salt approach.Finally,the application of flexible crystal materials in the field of optical waveguides has been investigated.The transformation of crystals in terms of photophysical and mechanical properties,achieved by the supramolecular salt approach,offers novel insights into the design and construction of flexible crystalline materials,providing a new path for the development of next-generation smart materials.
文摘Overt and harmful diabetes mellitus(DM)has detrimental effects on individuals and,by extension,the community.Among the microvascular DM complications is diabetic retinopathy(DR).DR may cause irreversible vision deterioration in cases of poor blood glucose regulation.Changes in vascular permeability are key trigger points for diabetic macular edema(DME),a condition characterized by the accumulation of fluid in the macula.The development of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)pathway inhibitors has provided a pathogenesis-based treatment approach for DME.Optical coherence tomography(OCT)provides highresolution imaging of the anatomy,including the aging of DME and its structural damage,in distinct morphologic subtypes of macular edema,thereby supporting the assessment of macular edema treatment.The availability of repeated OCT monitoring provides clinical reassurance through the treatment.OCT angiography(OCTA)provides retinal blood flow maps with high spatial resolution.The ability promotes an understanding of disease pathogenesis and facilitates the implementation of new therapeutic methods.This review compares the potential of OCT and OCTA in the diagnosis and treatment of DME,as well as their respective therapeutic applications.
