Observation of vector solitons supported by third-order dispersion by Guo, Jun, Hu, Xiaonan, Song, Yu Feng, Shao, Guo Dong, Zhao, Lu Ming, Tang, Ding Yuan

“…Using a cavity dispersion and birefringence management technique we constructed a weakly birefringent cavity fiber laser with near-zero net cavity dispersion. Operating the fiber laser in either the net normal or net anomalous dispersion regime, we found that both dark-bright and antidark-bright vector solitons could be simultaneously formed as a result of incoherent cross-polarization phase modulation. …”

Visible Range Plasmonic Modes on Topological Insulator Nanostructures by Dubrovkin, Alexander M., Adamo, Giorgio, Yin, Jun, Wang, Lan, Soci, Cesare, Wang, Qi Jie, Zheludev, Nikolay I.

“…Phase-resolved real-space imaging of localized plasmons in Bi1.5Sb0.5Te1.8Se1.2 topological insulator nanostructures is performed by scattering-type scanning near-field optical microscopy. Dipolar and higher order surface plasmon modes with well-defined field amplitude and phase profiles are detected in the visible part of the spectrum.…”

3D Printing for Marketing and Advertisement Industry by Wu, Wenjin, Tor, Shu Beng

“…3D printing provides a new dimension for the communication of value of products and services to the audience through concept modelling, which prevents ambiguity of design throughout the product life cycle for design, visualisation, verification and presentation purposes. It provides near identical model of the prelaunch product for the customer to touch and see, and even to test the product functionality. …”

A study on the snowing phenomenon in binary alloy solidification by Saffie, M.G.M., Tso, Chih Ping., Tan, F. L.

“…The snowing phenomenon has been observed in some studies where seed crystals formed near the bottom of the test cell during solidification are carried up flow above the mushy layer by thermo-solutal convection flow, and they fall down on it just like atmospheric snow occurring in nature. …”
