Computer-generated hologram (CGH) is a unique solution for the highly accurate testing of large-aperture aspheric mirrors, and its accuracy calibration has become one of the long-standing difficulties in this filed. Scientist in China developed an accuracy verification methodology based on an equivalent element, which transfers the aspheric wavefront reference in a comparison test.

Electromagnetic waves with vortex-shape, namely vortex beams, are important in various fields. However, multi-mode OAM beams are rarely seen. To solve this, the researchers in China propose a metasurface design scheme that generates double-polarized vortex combs in the terahertz band, with flexible control of the mode numbers, positions, and intervals.

Scientist in China proposed a Memristive-Photoconductive Transduction (MPT) strategy to achieve crosstalk-free readout. By utilizing the characteristic that the photoelectric response of the semiconductor resistive memory device varies under different resistance states, precise and nondestructive readout operations can be achieved in a crossbar memory array.
