Abstract
Speckle-correlation optical scattering imaging (SCOSI) has shown the potential for non-invasive biomedical diagnostic applications, which directly utilizes the scattering patterns to reconstruct the deep and non-line-of-sight objects. However, the course of the translation of this technique to preclinical biomedical imaging applications has been postponed by the following two facts: 1) the field of view of SCOSI was significantly limited by the optical memory effect, and 2) the molecular-tagged functional imaging of the biological tissues remains largely unexplored. In this work, a proof-of-concept design of the first-generation widefield functional SCOSI (WF-SCOSI) system was presented for simultaneously achieving mesoscopic mapping of fluid morphology and flow rate, which was realized by implementing the concepts of scanning synthesis and fluorescence scattering flowmetry. The ex vivo imaging results of the fluorescence-labeled large-scale blood vessel network phantom underneath the strong scatters demonstrated the effectiveness of WF-SCOSI toward non-invasive hemodynamic imaging applications.

Abstract
Nanomedicine in combination with immunotherapy has shown great potential in the cancer treatment, but phototherapeutic nanomaterials that specifically activate the immunopharmacological effects in deep tumors have rarely been developed due to limited laser penetration depth and tumor immune microenvironment. Herein, this work reports a newly synthesized semiconducting polymer (SP) grafted with imiquimod R837 and indoxmid encapsulated micelle (SPRIN-micelle) with strong absorption in the second near infrared window (NIR-II) that can relieve tumor immunosuppression and enhance the photothermal immunotherapy and catabolic modulation on tumors. Immune agonists (Imiquimod R837) and immunometabolic modulators (indoxmid) are covalently attached to NIR-II SP sensors via a glutathione (GSH) responsive self-immolation linker and then loaded into Pluronic F127 (F127) micelles by a temperature-sensitive critical micelle concentration (CMC)-switching method. Using this method, photothermal effect of SPRIN-micelles in deep-seated tumors can be activated, leading to effective tumor ablation and immunogenic cell death (ICD). Meanwhile, imiquimod and indoxmid are tracelessly released in response to the tumor microenvironment, resulting in dendritic cell (DC) maturation by imiquimod R837 and inhibition of both indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) activity and Treg cell expression by indoxmid. Ultimately, cytotoxic T-lymphocyte infiltration and tumor metastasis inhibition in deep solid tumors (9 mm) are achieved. In summary, this work demonstrates a new strategy for the combination of photothermal immunotherapy and metabolic modulation by developing a dual functional polymer system including activable SP and temperature-sensitive F127 for the treatment of deep solid tumors.

Abstract
On-chip optical microresonators are essential building blocks in integrated optics. The ability to arbitrarily engineer their resonant frequencies is crucial for exploring novel physics in synthetic frequency dimensions and practical applications like nonlinear optical parametric processes and dispersion-engineered frequency comb generation. Photonic crystal ring (PhCR) resonators are a versatile tool for such arbitrary frequency engineering, by controllably creating mode splitting at selected resonances. To date, these PhCRs have mostly been demonstrated in isotropic photonic materials, while such engineering can be significantly more complicated in anisotropic platforms that often offer more fruitful optical properties. Here, the spectral engineering of chip-scale optical microresonators is realized in the anisotropic lithium niobate (LN) crystal by a gradient design that precisely compensates for variations in both refractive index and perturbation strength. Controllable frequency splitting is experimentally demonstrated at single and multiple selected resonances in LN PhCR resonators with different sizes, while maintaining high quality-factors up to 1 × 106. Moreover, a sharp boundary is experimentally constructed in the synthetic frequency dimension based on an actively modulated x-cut LN gradient-PhCR, opening up new paths toward the arbitrary control of electro-optic comb spectral shapes and exploration of novel physics in the frequency degree of freedom.

Abstract
Meningiomas rank among the most common intracranial tumors, and surgery stands as the primary treatment modality for meningiomas. The precise subtyping and diagnosis of meningiomas, both before and during surgery, play a pivotal role in enabling neurosurgeons choose the optimal surgical program. In this study, we utilized multiphoton microscopy (MPM) based on 2-photon excited fluorescence and second-harmonic generation to identify 5 common meningioma subtypes. The morphological features of these subtypes were depicted using the MPM multichannel mode. Additionally, we developed 2 distinct programs to quantify collagen content and blood vessel density. Furthermore, the lambda mode of the MPM characterized architectural and spectral features, from which 3 quantitative indicators were extracted. Moreover, we employed machine learning to differentiate meningioma subtypes automatically, achieving high classification accuracy. These findings demonstrate the potential of MPM as a noninvasive diagnostic tool for meningioma subtyping and diagnosis, offering improved accuracy and resolution compared with traditional methods.

Abstract
Recent advances in 3D pathology offer the ability to image orders of magnitude more tissue than conventional pathology methods while also providing a volumetric context that is not achievable with 2D tissue sections, and all without requiring destructive tissue sectioning. Generating high-quality 3D pathology datasets on a consistent basis, however, is not trivial and requires careful attention to a series of details during tissue preparation, imaging and initial data processing, as well as iterative optimization of the entire process. Here, we provide an end-to-end procedure covering all aspects of a 3D pathology workflow (using light-sheet microscopy as an illustrative imaging platform) with sufficient detail to perform well-controlled preclinical and clinical studies. Although 3D pathology is compatible with diverse staining protocols and computationally generated color palettes for visual analysis, this protocol focuses on the use of a fluorescent analog of hematoxylin and eosin, which remains the most common stain used for gold-standard pathological reports. We present our guidelines for a broad range of end users (e.g., biologists, clinical researchers and engineers) in a simple format. The end-to-end workflow requires 3-6 d to complete, bearing in mind that data analysis may take longer.

Abstract
The next-generation X-ray detectors require novel semiconductors with low material/fabrication cost, excellent X-ray response characteristics, and robust operational stability. The family of organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites (OIHPs) materials comprises a range of crystal configuration (i.e., films, wafers, and single crystals) with tunable chemical composition, structures, and electronic properties, which can perfectly meet the multiple-stringent requirements of high-energy radiation detection, making them emerging as the cutting-edge candidate for next-generation X-ray detectors. From the perspective of molecular dimensionality, the physicochemical and optoelectronic characteristics of OIHPs exhibit dimensionality-dependent behavior, and thus the structural dimensionality is recognized as the key factor that determines the device performance of OIHPs-based X-ray detectors. Nevertheless, the correlation between dimensionality of OIHPs and performance of their X-ray detectors is still short of theoretical guidance, which become a bottleneck that impedes the development of efficient X-ray detectors. In the review, the advanced studies on the dimensionality engineering of OIHPs are critically assessed in X-ray detection application, discussing the current understanding on the "dimensionality-property" relationship of OIHPs and the state-of-the-art progresses on the dimensionality-engineered OIHPs-based X-ray detector, and highlight the open challenges and future outlook of this field.

Abstract
The use of bioluminescence as a reporter for physiology in neuroscience is as old as the discovery of the calcium-dependent photon emission of aequorin. Over the years, luciferases have been largely replaced by fluorescent reporters, but recently, the field has seen a renaissance of bioluminescent probes, catalyzed by unique developments in imaging technology, bioengineering, and biochemistry to produce luciferases with previously unseen colors and intensity. This is not surprising as the advantages of bioluminescence make luciferases very attractive for noninvasive, longitudinal in vivo observations without the need of an excitation light source. Here, we review how the development of dedicated and specific sensor-luciferases afforded, among others, transcranial imaging of calcium and neurotransmitters, or cellular metabolites and physical quantities such as forces and membrane voltage. Further, the increased versatility and light output of luciferases have paved the way for a new field of functional bioluminescence optogenetics, in which the photon emission of the luciferase is coupled to the gating of a photosensor, e.g., a channelrhodopsin and we review how they have been successfully used to engineer synthetic neuronal connections. Finally, we provide a primer to consider important factors in setting up functional bioluminescence experiments, with a particular focus on the genetic model Caenorhabditis elegans, and discuss the leading challenges that the field needs to overcome to regain a competitive advantage over fluorescence modalities. Together, our paper caters to experienced users of bioluminescence as well as novices who would like to experience the advantages of luciferases in their own hand.

Abstract
Imaging tools are crucial for studying the vascular network and its barrier function in various physiopathological conditions. Shortwave infrared (SWIR) window optical imaging allows noninvasive, in-depth exploration. We applied SWIR imaging, combined with vessel segmentation and deep learning analyses, to study real-time dextran probe extravasation in mice experiencing intermittent hypoxia (IH)-a characteristic of obstructive sleep apnea associated with potential cardiovascular alterations due to early vascular permeability. Evidence for permeability in this context is limited, making our investigation significant. C57Bl/6 mice were exposed to normoxia or intermittent hypoxia for 14 days. Then SWIR imaging between 1,250 and 1,700 nm was performed on the saphenous artery and vein and on the surrounding tissue after intravenous injection of labeled dextrans of two different sizes (10 or 70 kDa). Postprocessing and segmentation of the SWIR images were conducted using deep learning treatment. We monitored high-resolution signals, distinguishing arteries, veins, and surrounding tissues. In the saphenous artery and vein, after 70-kD dextran injection, tissue/vessel ratio was higher after intermittent hypoxia (IH) than normoxia (N) over 500 seconds (P < 0.05). However, the ratio was similar in N and IH after 10-kD dextran injection. The SWIR imaging technique allows noninvasive, real-time monitoring of dextran extravasation in vivo. Dextran 70 extravasation is increased after exposure to IH, suggesting an increased vessel permeability in this mice model of obstructive sleep apnea.NEW & NOTEWORTHY We demonstrate that SWIR imaging technique is a useful tool to monitor real-time dextran extravasation from vessels in vivo, with a high resolution. We report for the first time an increased real-time dextran (70 kD) extravasation in mice exposed to intermittent hypoxia for 14 days compared with normoxic controls.

Abstract
Histopathology relies on century-old workflows of formalin fixation, paraffin embedding, sectioning, and staining tissue specimens on glass slides. Despite being robust, this conventional process is slow, labor-intensive, and limited to providing two-dimensional views. Emerging technologies promise to enhance and accelerate histopathology. Slide-free microscopy allows rapid imaging of fresh, unsectioned specimens, overcoming slide preparation delays. Methods such as fluorescence confocal microscopy, multiphoton microscopy, along with more recent innovations including microscopy with UV surface excitation and fluorescence-imitating brightfield imaging can generate images resembling conventional histology directly from the surface of tissue specimens. Slide-free microscopy enable applications such as rapid intraoperative margin assessment and, with appropriate technology, three-dimensional histopathology. Multiomics profiling techniques, including imaging mass spectrometry and Raman spectroscopy, provide highly multiplexed molecular maps of tissues, although clinical translation remains challenging. Artificial intelligence is aiding the adoption of new imaging modalities via virtual staining, which converts methods such as slide-free microscopy into synthetic brightfield-like or even molecularly informed images. Although not yet commonplace, these emerging technologies collectively demonstrate the potential to modernize histopathology. Artificial intelligence-assisted workflows will ease the transition to new imaging modalities. With further validation, these advances may transform the century-old conventional histopathology pipeline to better serve 21st-century medicine. This review provides an overview of these enabling technology platforms and discusses their potential impact.

Abstract
Over the past few decades, THz technology has made considerable progress, evidenced by the performance of current THz sources and detectors, as well as the emergence of several THz applications. However, in the realm of quantum technologies, the THz spectral domain is still in its infancy, unlike neighboring spectral domains that have flourished in recent years. Notably, in the microwave domain, superconducting qubits currently serve as the core of quantum computers, while quantum cryptography protocols have been successfully demonstrated in the visible and telecommunications domains through satellite links. The THz domain has lagged behind in these impressive advancements. Today, the current gap in the THz domain clearly concerns quantum technologies. Nonetheless, the emergence of quantum technologies operating at THz frequencies will potentially have a significant impact. Indeed, THz radiation holds significant promise for wireless communications with ultimate security owing to its low sensitivity to atmospheric disturbances. Moreover, it has the potential to raise the operating temperature of solid-state qubits, effectively addressing existing scalability issues. In addition, THz radiation can manipulate the quantum states of molecules, which are recognized as new platforms for quantum computation and simulation with long range interactions. Finally, its ability to penetrate generally opaque materials or its resistance to Rayleigh scattering are very appealing features for quantum sensing. In this perspective, we will discuss potential approaches that offer exciting prospects for generating and detecting non-classical states of THz light, thereby opening doors to significant breakthroughs in THz quantum technologies.

Abstract
Data collection at X-ray free electron lasers has particular experimental challenges, such as continuous sample delivery or the use of novel ultrafast high-dynamic-range gain-switching X-ray detectors. This can result in a multitude of data artefacts, which can be detrimental to accurately determining structure-factor amplitudes for serial crystallography or single-particle imaging experiments. Here, a new data-classification tool is reported that offers a variety of machine-learning algorithms to sort data trained either on manual data sorting by the user or by profile fitting the intensity distribution on the detector based on the experiment. This is integrated into an easy-to-use graphical user interface, specifically designed to support the detectors, file formats and software available at most X-ray free electron laser facilities. The highly modular design makes the tool easily expandable to comply with other X-ray sources and detectors, and the supervised learning approach enables even the novice user to sort data containing unwanted artefacts or perform routine data-analysis tasks such as hit finding during an experiment, without needing to write code.

Abstract
Breast cancer is a substantial source of morbidity and mortality worldwide. It is particularly more difficult to treat at later stages, and treatment regimens depend heavily on both staging and the molecular subtype of the tumor. However, both detection and molecular analyses rely on standard imaging and histological method, which are costly, time-consuming, and lack necessary sensitivity/specificity. The estrogen receptor (ER) is, along with the progesterone receptor (PR) and human epidermal growth factor (HER-2), among the primary molecular markers which inform treatment. Patients who are negative for all three markers (triple negative breast cancer, TNBC), have fewer treatment options and a poorer prognosis. Therapeutics for ER+ patients are effective at preventing disease progression, though it is necessary to improve the speed of subtyping and distribution of rapid detection methods. In this work, we designed a near-infrared optical nanosensor using single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) as the transducer and an anti-ERα antibody as the recognition element. The nanosensor was evaluated for its response to recombinant ERα in buffer and serum prior to evaluation with ER- and ER+ immortal cell lines. We then used a minimal volume of just 10 μL from 26 breast cancer biopsy samples which were aspirated to mimic fine needle aspirates. 20 samples were ER+, while 6 were ER-, representing 13 unique patients. We evaluated the potential of the nanosensor by investigating several SWCNT chiralities through direct incubation or fractionation deployment methods. We found that the nanosensor can differentiate ER- from ER+ patient biopsies through a shift in its center wavelength upon sample addition. This was true regardless of which of the three SWCNT chiralities we observed. Receiver operating characteristic area under the curve analyses determined that the strongest classifier with an AUC of 0.94 was the (7,5) chirality after direct incubation and measurement, and without further processing. We anticipate that further testing and development of this nanosensor may push its utility toward field-deployable, rapid ER subtyping with potential for additional molecular marker profiling.

Abstract
Tissue engineered bracket materials provide essential support for the physiological protection and therapeutics of patients. Unfortunately, the implantation process of such devices poses the risk of surgical complications and infection. In this study, an upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs)-assisted 3D bioprinting approach is developed to realize in vivo molding that is free from invasive surgery. Reasonably designed UCNPs, which convert near-infrared (NIR) photons that penetrate skin tissues into blue-violet emission (300-500 nm), induce a monomer polymerization curing procedure in vivo. Using a fused deposition modeling coordination framework, a precisely predetermined trajectory of the NIR laser enables the manufacture of implantable medical devices with tailored shapes. A proof of the 3D bioprinting of a noninvasive fracture fixation scaffold is achieved successfully, thus demonstrating an entirely new method of in vivo molding for biomedical treatment.

Abstract
Optical diffraction tomography (ODT) is a powerful label-free measurement tool that can quantitatively image the three-dimensional (3D) refractive index (RI) distribution of samples. However, the inherent "missing cone problem," limited illumination angles, and dependence on intensity-only measurements in a simplified imaging setup can all lead to insufficient information mapping in the Fourier domain, affecting 3D reconstruction results. In this paper, we propose the alternating projection combined with the fast gradient projection (FGP-AP) method to compensate for the above problem, which effectively reconstructs the 3D RI distribution of samples using intensity-only images captured from LED array microscopy. The FGP-AP method employs the alternating projection (AP) algorithm for gradient descent and the fast gradient projection (FGP) algorithm for regularization constraints. This approach is equivalent to incorporating prior knowledge of sample non-negativity and smoothness into the 3D reconstruction process. Simulations demonstrate that the FGP-AP method improves reconstruction quality compared to the original AP method, particularly in the presence of noise. Experimental results, obtained from mouse kidney cells and label-free blood cells, further affirm the superior 3D imaging efficacy of the FGP-AP method.

Abstract
We introduce a physics-based computational reconstruction framework for non-invasive photoacoustic tomography through a thick aberrating layer. Our wave-based approach leverages an analytic formulation of diffraction to beamform a photoacoustic image, when the aberrating layer profile is known. When the profile of the aberrating layer is unknown, the same analytical formulation serves as the basis for an automatic-differentiation regularized optimization algorithm that simultaneously reconstructs both the profile of the aberrating layer and the optically absorbing targets. Results from numerical studies and proof-of-concept experiments show promise for fast beamforming that takes into account diffraction effects occurring in the propagation through thick, highly-aberrating layers.

Abstract
Sustainability, humidity sensing and product origin are important features of food packaging. While waste generated from labelling and packaging causes environmental destruction, humidity can result in food spoilage during delivery and counterfeit-prone labelling undermines consumer trust. Here we introduce a food label based on a water-soluble nanocomposite ink with a high refractive index that addresses these issues. By patterning the nanocomposite ink using nanoimprint lithography, the resultant metasurface shows bright and vivid structural colours. This method makes it possible to quickly and inexpensively create patterns on large surfaces. A QR code is also developed that can provide up-to-date information on food products. Microprinting hidden in the QR code protects against counterfeiting, cannot be physically detached or replicated and may be used as a humidity indicator. Our proposed food label can reduce waste while ensuring customers receive accurate product information.

Abstract
The central theme of cavity quantum electrodynamics is the coupling of a single optical mode with a single matter excitation, leading to a doublet of cavity polaritons which govern the optical properties of the coupled structure. Especially in the ultrastrong coupling regime, where the ratio of the vacuum Rabi frequency and the quasi-resonant carrier frequency of light, ΩR/ω c, approaches unity, the polariton doublet bridges a large spectral bandwidth 2ΩR, and further interactions with off-resonant light and matter modes may occur. The resulting multi-mode coupling has recently attracted attention owing to the additional degrees of freedom for designing light-matter coupled resonances, despite added complexity. Here, we experimentally implement a novel strategy to sculpt ultrastrong multi-mode coupling by tailoring the spatial overlap of multiple modes of planar metallic THz resonators and the cyclotron resonances of Landau-quantized two-dimensional electrons, on subwavelength scales. We show that similarly to the selection rules of classical optics, this allows us to suppress or enhance certain coupling pathways and to control the number of light-matter coupled modes, their octave-spanning frequency spectra, and their response to magnetic tuning. This offers novel pathways for controlling dissipation, tailoring quantum light sources, nonlinearities, correlations as well as entanglement in quantum information processing.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is a particular oncological therapeutic strategy by generates the highly toxic hydroxyl radical (•OH) from the dismutation of endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) via Fenton or Fenton-like reactions. However, single CDT therapies have been limited by unsatisfactory efficacy. Enhanced chemodynamic therapy (ECDT) triggered by near-infrared (NIR) is a novel therapeutic modality based on light energy to improve the efficiency of Fenton or Fenton-like reactions. However, the limited penetration and imaging capability of the visible (400-650 nm) and traditional NIR-I region (650-900 nm) light-amplified CDT restrict the prospects for its clinical application. Combined with the high penetration/high precision imaging characteristics of the second near-infrared (NIR-II,) nanoplatform, it is expected to kill deep tumors efficiently while imaging the treatment process in real-time, and more notably, the NIR-II region radiation with wavelengths above 1000 nm can minimize the irradiation damage to normal tissues. Such NIR-II ECDT nanoplatforms have greatly improved the effectiveness of CDT therapy and demonstrated extraordinary potential for clinical applications. Accordingly, various strategies have been explored in the past years to improve the efficiency of NIR-II Enhanced CDT. In this review, the mechanisms and strategies used to improve the performance of NIR-II-enhanced CDT are outlined.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In spite of the tremendous potential of game-changing biological image- and/or biologically guided radiation therapy (RT) and adaptive radiation therapy for cancer treatment, existing limited strategies for integrating molecular imaging and/or biological information with RT have impeded the translation of preclinical research findings to clinical applications. Additionally, there is an urgent need for a highly integrated small-animal radiation therapy (SART) platform that can seamlessly combine therapeutic and diagnostic capabilities to comprehensively enhance RT for cancer treatment. PURPOSE We investigated a highly integrated quad-modal on-board imaging configuration combining positron emission tomography (PET), single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), photon-counting spectral CT, and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in a SART platform using a Monte Carlo model as a proof-of-concept. METHODS The quad-modal on-board imaging configuration of the SART platform was designed and evaluated by using the GATE Monte Carlo code. A partial-ring on-board PET imaging subsystem, utilizing advanced semiconductor thallium bromide detector technology, was designed to achieve high sensitivity and spatial resolution. On-board SPECT, photon-counting spectral-CT, and CBCT imaging were performed using a single cadmium zinc telluride flat detector panel. The absolute peak sensitivity and scatter fraction of the PET subsystem were estimated by using simulated phantoms described in the NEMA NU-4 standard. The spatial resolution of the PET image of the platform was evaluated by imaging a simulated micro-Derenzo hot-rod phantom. To evaluate the quantitative imaging capability of the system's spectral CT, the Bayesian eigentissue decomposition (ETD) method was utilized to quantitatively decompose the virtual noncontrast (VNC) electron densities and iodine contrast agent fractions in the Kidney1 inserts mixed with the iodine contrast agent within the simulated phantoms. The performance of the proposed quad-model imaging in the platform was validated by imaging a simulated phantom with multiple imaging probes, including an iodine contrast agent and radioisotopes of 18F and 99mTc. RESULTS The PET subsystem demonstrated an absolute peak sensitivity of 18.5% at the scanner center, with an energy window of 175-560 KeV, and a scatter fraction of only 3.5% for the mouse phantom, with a default energy window of 480-540 KeV. The spatial resolution of PET on-board imaging exceeded 1.2 mm. All imaging probes were identified clearly within the phantom. The PET and SPECT images agreed well with the actual spatial distributions of the tracers within the phantom. Average relative errors on electron density and iodine contrast agent fraction in the Kidney1 inserts were less than 3%. High-quality PET images, SPECT images, spectral-CT images (including iodine contrast agent fraction images and VNC electron density images), and CBCT images of the simulated phantom demonstrated the comprehensive multimodal imaging capability of the system. CONCLUSIONS The results demonstrated the feasibility of the proposed quad-modal imaging configuration in a SART platform. The design incorporates anatomical, molecular, and functional information about tumors, thereby facilitating successful translation of preclinical studies into clinical practices.

Abstract
Comprehensive understanding of interconnected networks within the brain requires access to high resolution information within large field of views and over time. Currently, methods that enable mapping structural changes of the entire brain in vivo are extremely limited. Third harmonic generation (THG) can resolve myelinated structures, blood vessels, and cell bodies throughout the brain without the need for any exogenous labeling. Together with deep penetration of long wavelengths, this enables in vivo brain-mapping of large fractions of the brain in small animals and over time. Here, we demonstrate that THG microscopy allows non-invasive label-free mapping of the entire brain of an adult vertebrate, Danionella dracula, which is a miniature species of cyprinid fish. We show this capability in multiple brain regions and in particular the identification of major commissural fiber bundles in the midbrain and the hindbrain. These features provide readily discernable landmarks for navigation and identification of regional-specific neuronal groups and even single neurons during in vivo experiments. We further show how this label-free technique can easily be coupled with fluorescence microscopy and used as a comparative tool for studies of other species with similar body features to Danionella, such as zebrafish (Danio rerio) and tetras (Trochilocharax ornatus). This new evidence, building on previous studies, demonstrates how small size and relative transparency, combined with the unique capabilities of THG microscopy, can enable label-free access to the entire adult vertebrate brain.

Abstract
Multiphoton microscopy (MPM) enables deep brain imaging. Three optical windows: NIR-I, NIR-II, and NIR-III are widely used. Recently, NIR-IV (the 2200 nm window) has been demonstrated to be the last and longest window for deep tissue MPM. However, so far MPM covers only two optical windows labeled by single fluorescent probe, one for emission and one for excitation. Here we demonstrate in vivo deep brain MPM covering three optical windows, with emission at NIR-I, NIR-II, and excitation at NIR-IV, labeled by ICG. The innovations include: (1) characterizing both 3-photon excitation and emission properties of ICG emitting at both NIR-I and NIR-II, in water, plasma, and circulating blood; (2) a home-built multiphoton microscope with simultaneous dual channel detection, with which we demonstrate deep brain MPM 950 μm (NIR-I) and 850 μm (NIR-II) into the mouse brain in vivo, verifying that multi-optical window MPM is promising for deep brain imaging.

Abstract
Due to their high optical transparency and electrical conductivity, indium tin oxide thin films are a promising material for photonic circuit design and applications. However, their weak optical nonlinearity has been a substantial barrier to nonlinear signal processing applications. In this study, we show that an atomically thin (~1.5 nm) indium tin oxide film in the form of an air/indium tin oxide/SiO2 quantum well exhibits a second-order susceptibility χ2 of ~1,800 pm V-1. First-principles calculations and quantum electrostatic modelling point to an electronic interband transition resonance in the asymmetric potential energy of the quantum well as the reason for this large χ2 value. As the χ2 value is more than 20 times higher than that of the traditional nonlinear LiNbO3 crystal, our indium tin oxide quantum well design can be an important step towards nonlinear photonic circuit applications.

Abstract
Soliton microcombs are regarded as an ideal platform for applications such as optical communications, optical sensing, low-noise microwave sources, optical atomic clocks, and frequency synthesizers. Many of these applications require a broad comb spectrum that covers an octave, essential for implementing the f - 2f self-referencing techniques. In this work, we have successfully generated an octave-spanning soliton microcomb based on a z-cut thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) microresonator. This achievement is realized under on-chip optical pumping at 340 mW and through extensive research into the broadening of dual dispersive waves (DWs). Furthermore, the repetition rate of the octave soliton microcomb is accurately measured using an electro-optic comb generated by an x-cut TFLN racetrack microresonator. Our results represent a crucial step toward the realization of practical, integrated, and fully stabilized soliton microcomb systems based on TFLN.

Abstract
Here we show that MINSTED localization, a method whereby the position of a fluorophore is identified with precisely controlled beams of a STED microscope, tracks fluorophores and hence labeled biomolecules with nanometer/millisecond spatiotemporal precision. By updating the position for each detected photon, MINSTED recognizes fluorophore steps of 16 nm within <250 μs using about 13 photons. The power of MINSTED tracking is demonstrated by resolving the stepping of the motor protein kinesin-1 walking on microtubules and switching protofilaments.

Abstract
To improve particle radiotherapy, we need a better understanding of the biology of radiation effects, particularly in heavy ion radiation therapy, where global responses are observed despite energy deposition in only a subset of cells. Here, we integrated a high-speed swept confocally-aligned planar excitation (SCAPE) microscope into a focused ion beam irradiation platform to allow real-time 3D structural and functional imaging of living biological samples during and after irradiation. We demonstrate dynamic imaging of the acute effects of irradiation on 3D cultures of U87 human glioblastoma cells, revealing characteristic changes in cellular movement and intracellular calcium signaling following ionizing irradiation.

Abstract
The first quantum revolution has brought us the classical Internet and information technology. Today, as technology advances rapidly, the second quantum revolution quietly arrives, with a crucial moment for quantum technology to establish large-scale quantum networks. However, solid-state quantum bits (such as superconducting and semiconductor qubits) typically operate in the microwave frequency range, making it challenging to transmit signals over long distances. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop quantum transducer chips capable of converting microwaves into optical photons in the communication band, since the thermal noise of optical photons at room temperature is negligible, rendering them an ideal information carrier for large-scale spatial communication. Such devices are important for connecting different physical platforms and efficiently transmitting quantum information. This paper focuses on the fast-developing field of optomechanical quantum transducers, which has flourished over the past decade, yielding numerous advanced achievements. We categorize transducers based on various mechanical resonators and discuss their principles of operation and their achievements. Based on existing research on optomechanical transducers, we compare the parameters of several mechanical resonators and analyze their advantages and limitations, as well as provide prospects for the future development of quantum transducers.

Abstract
0D Bi-based 329-type halide perovskite is demonstrated as a promising semiconductor for X-ray detection due to its strong X-ray absorption, superior stability, availability of large single crystals (SCs) and solution processibility at low temperature. However, its low mobility-lifetime product (µτ) limits its further improvement in detection sensitivity. Based on the first-principles calculations, this work designs a new 2D Bi-based 329-type halide perovskite using a mixed-halide-induced structural dimension regulation strategy. By using a continuous supply of a precursor solution, this work successfully grows inch-sized high-quality SCs. These SCs exhibit large µτ product, high resistivity, and low ion migration. The detectors fabricated using the SCs show X-ray detection sensitivity as high as 24,509 µC Gyair -1 cm-2, short response time of 315 µs, low detection limit of 4.3 nGy s-1, and superior stability. These properties are the best among all lead-free perovskite detectors and are comparable to those of the best lead-based perovskite detectors. The linear array detector assembled on the SCs for the first time also shows a high spatial resolution of 10.6 lp mm-1 during X-ray imaging. The high performance combined with superior stability of these new 329-type lead-free halide perovskite SCs is expected to promote a new generation of X-ray detection technologies.

Abstract
In the quest to build general-purpose photonic quantum computers, fusion-based quantum computation has risen to prominence as a promising strategy. This model allows a ballistic construction of large cluster states which are universal for quantum computation, in a scalable and loss-tolerant way without feed forward, by fusing many small n-photon entangled resource states. However, a key obstacle to this architecture lies in efficiently generating the required essential resource states on photonic chips. One such critical seed state that has not yet been achieved is the heralded three-photon Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (3-GHZ) state. Here, we address this elementary resource gap, by reporting the first experimental realization of a heralded 3-GHZ state. Our implementation employs a low-loss and fully programmable photonic chip that manipulates six indistinguishable single photons of wavelengths in the telecommunication regime. Conditional on the heralding detection, we obtain the desired 3-GHZ state with a fidelity 0.573±0.024. Our Letter marks an important step for the future fault-tolerant photonic quantum computing, leading to the acceleration of building a large-scale optical quantum computer.

Abstract
An integrated quantum light source is increasingly desirable in large-scale quantum information processing. Despite recent remarkable advances, a new material platform is constantly being explored for the fully on-chip integration of quantum light generation, active and passive manipulation, and detection. Here, for the first time, we demonstrate a gallium nitride (GaN) microring based quantum light generation in the telecom C-band, which has potential toward the monolithic integration of quantum light source. In our demonstration, the GaN microring has a free spectral range of 330 GHz and a near-zero anomalous dispersion region of over 100 nm. The generation of energy-time entangled photon pair is demonstrated with a typical raw two-photon interference visibility of 95.5±6.5%, which is further configured to generate a heralded single photon with a typical heralded second-order autocorrelation g_{H}^{(2)}(0) of 0.045±0.001. Our results pave the way for developing a chip-scale quantum photonic circuit.

Abstract
The generation of new myelin-forming oligodendrocytes in the adult central nervous system is critical for cognitive function and regeneration following injury. Oligodendrogenesis varies between gray and white matter regions, suggesting that local cues drive regional differences in myelination and the capacity for regeneration. However, the layer- and region-specific regulation of oligodendrocyte populations is unclear due to the inability to monitor deep brain structures in vivo. Here we harnessed the superior imaging depth of three-photon microscopy to permit long-term, longitudinal in vivo three-photon imaging of the entire cortical column and subcortical white matter in adult mice. We find that cortical oligodendrocyte populations expand at a higher rate in the adult brain than those of the white matter. Following demyelination, oligodendrocyte replacement is enhanced in the white matter, while the deep cortical layers show deficits in regenerative oligodendrogenesis and the restoration of transcriptional heterogeneity. Together, our findings demonstrate that regional microenvironments regulate oligodendrocyte population dynamics and heterogeneity in the healthy and diseased brain.

Abstract
Pattern-illumination time-resolved phase microscopy (PI-PM) is a technique used to study the microscopic charge carrier dynamics in photocatalytic and photovoltaic materials. The method involves illuminating a sample with a pump light pattern, which generates charge carriers and they decay subsequently due to trapping, recombination, and transfer processes. The distribution of photo-excited charge carriers is observed through refractive index changes using phase-contrast imaging. In the PI-PM method, the sensitivity of the refractive index change is enhanced by adjusting the focus position, the method takes advantage of photo-excited charge carriers to observe non-radiative processes, such as charge diffusion, trapping in defect/surface states, and interfacial charge transfer of photocatalytic and photovoltaic reactions. The quality of the image sequence is recovered using various informatics calculations. Categorizing and mapping different types of charge carriers based on their response profiles using clustering analysis provides spatial information on charge carrier types and the identification of local sites for efficient and inefficient photo-induced reactions, providing valuable information for the design and optimization of photocatalytic materials such as the cocatalyst effect.

Abstract
Amyloid-beta ( A β 42 ) aggregates are characteristic signatures of Alzheimer's disease, but probing how their nanoscale architectures influence their growth and decay remains challenging using current technologies. Here, we apply time-lapse single-molecule orientation-localization microscopy (SMOLM) to measure the orientations and rotational "wobble" of Nile blue (NB) molecules transiently binding to A β 42 fibrils. We quantify correlations between fibril architectures, measured by SMOLM, and their growth and decay visualized by single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM). We discover that stable A β 42 fibrils tend to be well-ordered, signified by well-aligned NB orientations and small wobble. SMOLM also shows that increasing order and disorder are signatures of growing and decaying A β 42 fibrils, respectively. We also observe SMLM-invisible fibril remodeling, including steady growth and decay patterns that conserve β -sheet organization. SMOLM reveals that increased heterogeneity in fibril architectures is correlated with more dynamic remodeling and that large-scale fibril remodeling tends to originate from local regions that exhibit strong heterogeneity.

Abstract
Precise measurement and control of local heating in plasmonic nanostructures are vital for diverse nanophotonic devices. Despite significant efforts, challenges in understanding temperature-induced plasmonic nonlinearity persist, particularly in light absorption and near-field enhancement due to the absence of suitable measurement techniques. This study presents an approach allowing simultaneous measurements of light absorption and near-field enhancement through angle-resolved near-field scanning optical microscopy with iterative opto-thermal analysis. We revealed gold thin films exhibit sublinear nonlinearity in near-field enhancement due to nonlinear opto-thermal effects, while light absorption shows both sublinear and superlinear behaviors at varying thicknesses. These observations align with predictions from a simple harmonic oscillation model, in which changes in damping parameters affect light absorption and field enhancement differently. The sensitivity of our method was experimentally examined by measuring the opto-thermal responses of three-dimensional nanostructure arrays. Our findings have direct implications for advancing plasmonic applications, including photocatalysis, photovoltaics, photothermal effects, and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy.

Abstract
The permeability of the highly selective blood-brain barrier (BBB) to anticancer drugs and the difficulties in defining deep tumor boundaries often reduce the effectiveness of glioma treatment. Thus, exploring the combination of multiple treatment modalities under the guidance of second-generation near-infrared (NIR-II) window fluorescence (FL) imaging is considered a strategic approach in glioma theranostics. Herein, a hybrid X-ray-activated nanoprodrug was developed to precisely visualize the structural features of glioma microvasculature and delineate the boundary of glioma for synergistic chemo-radiotherapy. The nanoprodrug comprised down-converted nanoparticle (DCNP) coated with X-ray sensitive poly(Se-Se/DOX-co-acrylic acid) and targeted Angiopep-2 peptide (DCNP@P(Se-DOX)@ANG). Because of its ultrasmall size and the presence of DOX, the nanoprodrug could easily cross BBB to precisely monitor and localize glioblastoma via intracranial NIR-II FL imaging and synergistically administer antiglioblastoma chemo-radiotherapy through specific X-ray-induced DOX release and radiosensitization. This study provides a novel and effective strategy for glioblastoma imaging and chemo-radiotherapy.

Abstract
Primary batteries are the fundamental power sources in small electronic gadgets and bio/ecoresorbable batteries. They are fabricated from benign and biodegradable materials and are of interest in environmental sensing and implants because of their low toxicity toward the environment and human body during decomposition. However, current bio/ecoresorbable batteries suffer from low operating voltages and output powers because of the occurrence of undesired hydrogen evolution reactions (HERs) at cathodes. Herein, Mo2C MXene was used as a cathode to achieve high operating voltage and areal power. Mo2C provides energy barriers for HERs in alkaline solutions, and such barriers suppress HERs and allow the oxygen reduction reaction to dominate at the cathode. The fabricated battery exhibits an operating voltage and areal power of 1.4 V and 0.92 mW cm-2, respectively. Degradation tests show that the full cell completely degrades within 123 days, leaving only Mo fragments from the electrode and biodegradable encapsulation. This study provides insights into bio/ecoresorbable batteries with high power and operating voltage, which can be used for environmental sensing.

Abstract
Synthetic peptides that self-assemble into cross-β fibrils are versatile building blocks for engineered biomaterials due to their modularity and biocompatibility, but their structural and morphological similarities to amyloid species have been a long-standing concern for their translation. Further, their polymorphs are difficult to characterize by using spectroscopic and imaging techniques that rely on ensemble averaging to achieve high resolution. Here, we utilize Nile red (NR), an amyloidophilic fluorogenic probe, and single-molecule orientation-localization microscopy (SMOLM) to characterize fibrils formed by the designed amphipathic enantiomers KFE8L and KFE8D and the pathological amyloid-beta peptide Aβ42. Importantly, NR SMOLM reveals the helical (bilayer) ribbon structure of both KFE8 and Aβ42 and quantifies the precise tilt of the fibrils' inner and outer backbones in relevant buffer conditions without the need for covalent labeling or sequence mutations. SMOLM also distinguishes polymorphic branched and curved morphologies of KFE8, whose backbones exhibit much more heterogeneity than those of typical straight fibrils. Thus, SMOLM is a powerful tool to interrogate the structural differences and polymorphism between engineered and pathological cross-β-rich fibrils.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of neurodegenerative dementia that is rapidly becoming a major health problem, especially in developed countries because of their increasing life expectancy. Two main problems are often associated with the disease: (i) the absence of a widely accessible "gold-standard" for early diagnosis and (ii) lack of effective therapies with disease-modifying effects. The recent success of the monoclonal antibody lecanemab played an important role not only in clarifying a possible druggable pathway but also in spelling the revival of small molecule drug discovery. Unlike bulky biologics, small molecules are structurally less complex, generally cheaper, and compatible with at-home oral consumption, making it feasible for people to start their drug regimen early and stay on it longer. In this sense, small-molecule near-infrared fluorescent theranostics have been gaining more and more attention from the scientific community, as they have the potential to simultaneously provide diagnostic outputs and deliver therapeutic action, paving the way toward personalized medicine in AD patients. They also have the potential to shift the diagnostic "status-quo" from expensive and limited-access PET radiotracers toward inexpensive and handy imaging tools widely available for primary patient screening and preclinical animal studies. Herein, we review the most recent advances in the field of fluorescent theranostics for Alzheimer's disease, detailing their design strategies, synthetic approaches and imaging and therapeutic properties in vitro and in vivo. With this Review, we intend to provide a milestone in the acquired knowledge in the field of AD theranostics, encouraging the future development of properly designed theranostic compounds with improved chances to reach clinical applications.

Abstract
Magneto-optical effects, which have been known for over a century, are among the most fundamental phenomena in physics and describe changes in the polarization state of light when it interacts with magnetic materials. When a polarized plane wave propagates in or through a homogeneous and isotropic transparent medium, it is generally accepted that its transverse polarization structure remains unchanged. However, we show that a strong radial polarization component can be generated when an azimuthally polarized sine-Gaussian plane wave is tightly focused by a high numerical aperture lens, resulting in a magneto-optical-like effect that does not require external magnetic field or magnetic medium. Calculations show that the intensity structure and polarization distribution of the highly confined electric field strongly depend on the parameters m and φ0 in the sinusoidal term, where m can be used to control the number of the multifocal spots and φ0 can be used to control the position of each focal spot. Finally, we show that this peculiar electric field distribution can be used to realize multiple particles trapping with controllable numbers and locations.

Abstract
Noninvasive monitoring of cardiac development can potentially prevent cardiac anomalies in adulthood. Mouse models provide unique opportunities to study cardiac development and disease in mammals. However, high-resolution noninvasive functional analyses of murine embryonic cardiac models are challenging because of the small size and fast volumetric motion of the embryonic heart, which is deeply embedded inside the uterus. In this study, a real time volumetric optoacoustic spectroscopy (VOS) platform for whole-heart visualization with high spatial (100 µm) and temporal (10 ms) resolutions is developed. Embryonic heart development on gestational days (GDs) 14.5-17.5 and quantify cardiac dynamics using time-lapse-4D image data of the heart is followed. Additionally, spectroscopic recordings enable the quantification of the blood oxygenation status in heart chambers in a label-free and noninvasive manner. This technology introduces new possibilities for high-resolution quantification of embryonic heart function at different gestational stages in mammalian models, offering an invaluable noninvasive method for developmental biology.

Abstract
Pure-quartic solitons (PQSs) have recently received increasing attention due to their energy-width scaling over the traditional soliton, which has expanded our understanding of soliton dynamics with high-order dispersion in nonlinear systems. Here, we numerically reveal the asynchronization and synchronization processes of the sub-pulse within the vector PQS molecule in a mode-locked fiber laser by solving the coupled Ginzburg-Landau equations. During the establishment of a vector PQS molecule, the repulsion, attraction, and finally stabilization processes have been observed. Specifically, sub-pulse disappearance, regeneration, and finally synchronization with the other pulses are also investigated. Our analysis of the pulse energy, time interval, and relative phase evolution dynamics with the round trip indicates that the asynchronization and synchronization within the vector PQS molecule associate tightly with the gain competition and the cross-phase modulation. Our findings provide insights into the internal mutual dynamics within the vector soliton molecule and offer guidance for the applications of PQS.

Abstract
Augmented reality (AR), a technology that superimposes virtual information onto a user's direct view of real-world scenes, is considered one of the next-generation display technologies and has been attracting considerable attention. Here, we propose a flat optic AR system that synergistically integrates a polarization-independent metalens with micro light-emitting diodes (LEDs). A key component is a meticulously designed metalens with a numerical aperture of 0.25, providing a simulated focusing efficiency of approximately 76.5% at a wavelength of 532 nm. Furthermore, the laser measurement system substantiates that the fabricated metalens achieves a focusing efficiency of 70.8%. By exploiting the reversibility of light characteristics, the metalens transforms the divergent light from green micro-LEDs into a collimated beam that passes through the pupil and images on the retina. Monochromatic pixels with a size of 5×5 µm2 and a pitch of 10 µm can be distinctly resolved with a power efficiency of 50%. This work illustrates the feasibility of integrating the metalens with microdisplays, realizing a high-efficiency AR device without the need for additional optical components and showcasing great potential for the development of near-eye display applications.

Abstract
Fourier ptychographic microscopy (FPM) is an enabling quantitative phase imaging technique with both high-resolution (HR) and wide field-of-view (FOV), which can surpass the diffraction limit of the objective lens by employing an LED array to provide angular-varying illumination. The precise illumination angles are critical to ensure exact reconstruction, while it's difficult to separate actual positional parameters in conventional algorithmic self-calibration approaches due to the mixing of multiple systematic error sources. In this paper, we report a pupil-function-based strategy for independently calibrating the position of LED array. We first deduce the relationship between positional deviation and pupil function in the Fourier domain through a common iterative route. Then, we propose a judgment criterion to determine the misalignment situations, which is based on the arrangement of LED array in the spatial domain. By combining the mapping of complex domains, we can accurately solve the spatial positional parameters concerning the LED array through a boundary-finding scheme. Relevant simulations and experiments demonstrate the proposed method is accessible to precisely correct the positional misalignment of LED array. The approach based on the pupil function is expected to provide valuable insights for precise position correction in the field of microscopy.

Abstract
A 10 W super-wideband ultra-low-intensity-noise single-frequency fiber laser (SFFL) at 1 µm is experimentally demonstrated, based on dual gain saturation effects from semiconductors and optical fibers, together with an analog-digital hybrid optoelectronic feedback loop. Three intensity-noise-inhibited units synergistically work, which actualizes a connection of effective bandwidth and enhancement of noise-suppressing amplitude. With the cascade action of the semiconductor optical amplifier and optical fiber amplifier, the laser power is remarkably boosted. Eventually, an SFFL with an output power of 10.8 W and a relative intensity noise (RIN) below -150 dB/Hz at the frequency range over 1 Hz is realized. More meaningfully, within the total frequency range of 10 Hz to 10 GHz exceeding 29 octaves, the RIN is controlled to below -160 dB/Hz, approaching the shot-noise limit (SNL) level. To the best of our knowledge, this is the lowest RIN result of SFFL within such an extensive frequency range, and this is the highest output power of the near-SNL super-wideband SFFL. Furthermore, a linewidth of less than 0.8 kHz, a long-term stable polarization extinction ratio of 20 dB, and an optical signal-to-noise ratio of over 60 dB are obtained simultaneously. This start-of-the-art SFFL has provided a systematic solution for high-power and low-noise light sources, which is competitive for sophisticated applications, such as free-space laser communication, space-based gravitational wave detection, and super-long-distance space coherent velocity measurement and ranging.

Abstract
Water has significantly high absorption around 3 µm wavelength region, originated by its fundamental OH vibrational modes. Here, we successfully demonstrate an opto-thermal manipulation of particles utilizing a 3 µm mid-infrared Er:ZBLAN fiber laser (adjustable from 2700 to 2826 nm) that can efficiently elevate the temperature at a laser focus with a low laser power. The 3 µm laser indeed accelerates the formation of the particle assembly by simply irradiating the laser into water. By altering the laser wavelengths, the assembling speed and size, instantaneous particle velocity, particle distribution, trapping stiffness and temperature elevation are evaluated systematically. We propose that the dynamics of particle assembly can be understood through thermo-osmotic slip flows, taking into account the effects of volume heating within the focal cone and point heating at the focus.

Abstract
An open challenge remained in designing an optical system to capture the aerial image with a wide field of view (FoV) and high resolution. The optical system of one camera from a single unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) can hardly promise the FoV and resolution. The conventional swarm UAVs can form the camera array with a short or fixed baseline. They can capture the images with a wide FoV and high resolution, but the cost is the requirement of many UAVs. We aim to design a camera array with a wide and dynamic baseline to reduce the demand for UAVs to organize a synthetic optical aperture. In this thought, we propose a master-slave UAVs-based synthetic optical aperture imaging system with a wide and dynamic baseline. The system consists of one master UAV and multiple slave UAVs. Master and slave UAVs provide the global and local FoVs, respectively, and improve the efficiency of image acquisition. In such a system, fusing UAV images becomes a new challenge due to two factors: (i) the small FoV overlap of slave UAVs and (ii) the gap in resolution scale from slave to master UAV images. To deal with it, a coarse-to-fine stitching method is proposed to stitch up the multi-view images into one to obtain a wide FoV with high resolution. A video stabilization method has also been designed for the proposed imaging system. Challenges caused by wide and dynamic baselines can thus be solved by the above methods. Actual data experiments demonstrate that the proposed imaging system achieves high-quality imaging results.

Abstract
Tabletop three-dimensional light field display is a kind of compelling display technology that can simultaneously provide stereoscopic vision for multiple viewers surrounding the lateral side of the device. However, if the flat panel light field display device is simply placed horizontally and displayed directly above, the visual frustum will be tilted and the 3D content outside the display panel will be invisible, the large oblique viewing angle will also lead to serious aberrations. In this paper, we demonstrate what we believe to be a new vertical spliced light field cave display system with an extended depth content. A separate optimization of different compound lens array attenuates the aberration from different oblique viewing angles, and a local heating fitting method is implemented to ensure the accuracy of fabrication process. The image coding method and the correction of the multiple viewpoints realize the correct construction of spliced voxels. In the experiment, a high-definition and precisely spliced 3D city terrain scene is demonstrated on the prototype with a correct oblique perspective in 100-degree horizontal viewing range. We envision that our research will provide more inspiration for future immersive large-scale glass-free virtual reality display technologies.

Abstract
Coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy offers label-free chemical contrasts based on molecular vibrations. Hyperspectral CARS (HS-CARS) microscopy enables comprehensive microscale chemical characterization of biological samples. Various HS-CARS methods have been developed with individual advantages and disadvantages. We present what we believe to be a new temporally optimized and spectrally shaped (TOSS) HS-CARS method to overcome the limitations of existing techniques by providing precise control of the spatial and temporal profiles of the excitation beams for efficient and accurate measurements. This method uniquely uses Fourier transform pulse shaping based on a two-dimensional spatial light modulator to control the phase and amplitude of the excitation beams. TOSS-HS-CARS achieves fast, stable, and flexible acquisition, minimizes photodamage, and is highly adaptable to a multimodal multiphoton imaging system.

Abstract
Artificial intelligence has gained significant attention for exploiting optical scattering for optical encryption. Conventional scattering media are inevitably influenced by instability or perturbations, and hence unsuitable for long-term scenarios. Additionally, the plaintext can be easily compromised due to the single channel within the medium and one-to-one mapping between input and output. To mitigate these issues, a stable spin-multiplexing disordered metasurface (DM) with numerous polarized transmission channels serves as the scattering medium, and a double-secure procedure with superposition of plaintext and security key achieves two-to-one mapping between input and output. In attack analysis, when the ciphertext, security key, and incident polarization are all correct, the plaintext can be decrypted. This system demonstrates excellent decryption efficiency over extended periods in noisy environments. The DM, functioning as an ultra-stable and active speckle generator, coupled with the double-secure approach, creates a highly secure speckle-based cryptosystem with immense potentials for practical applications.
