Quasicrystal metasurface projects holographic images and light patterns simultaneously
Chinese Academy of Sciences

Scientists created a new metasurface that projects holograms and unique light patterns. This ultrathin material combines quasicrystals (ordered but not repeating structures) with light manipulation techniques. They achieved this dual function by arranging tiny structures and controlling light interaction. This paves the way for ultra-thin devices in holographic displays, anti-counterfeiting, 3D imaging, and even multi-substance detection tech.

Unlocking the grape's secret scent: key gene modulates terpene aroma
Chinese Academy of Sciences

A study explores the ethylene-responsive gene VviERF003's influence on glycosylated monoterpenoid synthesis in grapes, which are pivotal for the fruity and floral notes in wines. Understanding this genetic regulation provides insights into how wine aroma can be influenced, potentially allowing for the development of grapes with enhanced or specific aromatic profiles.

When QDs Meet BPLCEs: Visualized Full-Color and Mechanically-Switchable CPL
Chinese Academy of Sciences

Full-color CPL is achieved by doping different quantum dots (QDs) into reconfigurable blue phase liquid crystal elastomers (BPLCE). Unlike with CPL in the cholesteric phase, BPLCE induces opposite CPL signal, entirely independent of photonic bandgaps (PBGs) and yielding a higher glum value even without matching between PBGs and emission bands of QDs.

Why some plant diseases thrive in urban environments
Washington University in St. Louis

Something about city life seems to suit powdery mildew, a fungal disease that afflicts many plants, including leaves of garden vegetables and roadside weeds. A new study from biologists at Washington University in St. Louis finds that plants in the city of St. Louis had significantly more mildew than those in the suburbs or countryside.
