Summary: In this work, a highly sensitive temperature sensor based on photonic spin Hall effect (PSHE) is proposed. It is found that, by involving the liquid crystal (LC) material, the PSHE exhibits high sensitivity to temperature perturbations near the Brewster and critical angles. The phase transition from liquid crystal state to liquid state leads to a transition of the sensitivity of the temperature sensor and provides an effective method for manipulating the spin-orbit interaction.

Summary: In this paper, the authors introduce a novel three-dimensional rotational photonic spin Hall effect (PSHE) and demonstrate how to control the rotation angle of the splitting patterns by adjusting the rotation angle of metasurfaces. They also show that the number of lobes in the splitting patterns can be independently controlled by introducing a dynamic phase. These findings enable active manipulation of spin photons in multiple dimensions and may have potential applications in optical microscopy, among other areas.

Summary: The physical origin of the photonic spin-Hall effect (PSHE) at optical interfaces is explored through studying the scatterings of circularly polarized beams obliquely incident on a series of junctions. The PSHE is determined by the interplay between the spin-redirection Berry (SRB) phase and the Pancharatnam-Berry (PB) phase. Shrinking the interfacial region can change the PSHE from SRB-dominated to PB-dominated.

Summary: The visualization of transparent phase objects is crucial in biological research, but it is challenging due to the weak scattering and absorption. In this study, a differential microscopy based on the photonic spin Hall effect is proposed, which can achieve high-contrast imaging of pure phase objects. The phase distribution can be reconstructed by biased imaging, providing potential for high-resolution reconstruction and quantitative analysis of phase images.

Summary: Based on quantum field theory, we have developed the Wigner function and quantum kinetic theory for polarized photons in curved spacetimes. In a rigidly rotating coordinate, we can reproduce the photonic chiral/zilch vortical effects. In a spatially inhomogeneous coordinate, we derive the spin Hall effect for the photon helicity current and energy current in equilibrium. Our derivation reveals the relationship between these photonic Hall effects and the photonic vortical effect, and their transport coefficients match each other.

Summary: This article introduces a method called lossy mode resonance (LMR), which is different from surface plasmon resonance (SPR). LMR can be excited by both p- and s-polarized light, enabling the enhancement of the transverse spin-dependent shift (SDS) of the photonic spin Hall effect (PSHE). The maximum transverse SDSs for the horizontal and vertical polarization states are achieved using LMR, with values of 13.28 μm and 7.64 μm respectively, which are approximately 12 and 7 times the incident light wavelength. The researchers also propose an LMR-enhanced PSHE-based refractive index sensor, which achieves a maximum refractive index sensitivity of 13500 μm/RIU (RIU, refractive index unit).

Summary: It has been discovered that hidden nonlinear magnon transport in magnetic textures can generate fictitious magnetic fields. By analyzing the scattering features between magnons and skyrmions, a significant Hall angle in both confluence and splitting modes has been predicted, and it has been found that the Hall angle reverses its sign when switching the handedness of the incident magnons. This finding may open up new possibilities for probing gauge fields through nonlinear means.

Summary: The photonic spin Hall effect, which is a manifestation of the spin-orbit interaction of light, can be measured through the transverse shift of photons with opposite spins. However, current methods to generate a large spin Hall effect have limitations, occurring only within a narrow angle range. This study proposes a universal scheme to achieve a wide-angle giant photonic spin Hall effect by utilizing the interface between free space and uniaxial epsilon-near-zero media.

Summary: This study identified 372 differentially expressed circRNAs in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of children with asthma. Among them, a circRNA called circS100A11 was highly expressed in monocytes and significantly upregulated in children with asthma. Further experiments demonstrated that circS100A11 promoted M2a macrophage activation by enhancing translation of its host gene, S100A11, and exacerbated lung inflammation in a mouse model of asthma. The study also found that circS100A11 competitively bound to CAPRIN1 to promote S100A11 translation, thereby enhancing M2a macrophage activation.

Summary: In this paper, current-induced switching of the photonic spin Hall effect (PSHE) is demonstrated by using Pt electrodes to cap Ce1Dy2Al0.42Fe4.58O12 thin film, which is mediated by spin-orbit torques at the Pt/Ce1Dy2Al0.42Fe4.58O12 interface. The results show that the transverse beam shifts related to the PSHE can be reversed by applying a small order of magnitude charge current (similar to 10(8) A center dot m(-2)) to the Pt layer in opposite directions, indicating low dissipation in the proposed heterostructure.

Summary: This study retrospectively analyzed the clinical characteristics and underlying causes of 551 hospitalized children with recurrent pneumonia from January 2016 to January 2021 at the Children's Hospital of Fudan University. The majority (87.7%) of the children had underlying causes, with recurrent aspiration, primary immunodeficiency, and congenital heart diseases being the most common. Genetic defects were identified in about a quarter of the patients. Primary immunodeficiency, primary ciliary dyskinesia, bronchiolitis obliterans, and the age of >3 years at diagnosis were risk factors for severe outcomes. Aspiration and an abnormal family history were risk factors for rehospitalization.

Summary: In this paper, a new run-time monitoring technique is proposed to detect hardware Trojans (HT) on working field-programmable gate array (FPGA), which can enhance the hardware security of IoT devices. The technique places multiple temperature sensors on FPGA and collects their values at each time interval. A predictive model is constructed to estimate the real-time distribution of sensor frequency. If the difference between the predicted value and the real one exceeds a dynamically updated threshold, an HT activation is reported. The experiment results demonstrate that the technique achieves high detection accuracy (>= 98%), low false negative ratio (<= 1.5%), and zero false positive ratio under various FPGA HT benchmarks.
