We numerically proposed and demonstrated a semiconductor meta-surface light absorber, which consists of a silicon patches array on a silicon thin-film and an opaque silver substrate. The Mie resonances of the silicon patches and the fundamental cavity mode of the ultra-thin silicon film couple strongly to the incident optical field, leading to a multi-band perfect absorption. The maximal absorption is above 99.5% and the absorption is polarization-independent. Moreover, the absorption behavior is scalable in the frequency region via tuning the structural parameters. These features hold the absorber platform with wide applications in optoelectronics such as hot-electron excitation and photo-detection.

We present a novel and simple optical structure, i.e., the symmetrical metal-cladding waveguide, in which a polymer layer is added into the guiding layer, for sensitive detection of chemical vapor by using the enhanced Goos-Hänchen (GH) shift (nearly a millimeter scale). Owing to the high sensitivity of the excited ultrahigh-order modes, the vapor-induced effect (swelling effect and refractive index change) in the polymer layer will lead to a dramatic variation of the GH shift. The detected GH shift signal is irrelevant to the power fluctuation of the incident light. The detection limit of 9.5 ppm for toluene and 28.5 ppm for benzene has been achieved.

A new scheme for controlled teleportation with the help of a four-qubit cluster state is proposed. In this scheme, a four-particle cluster state is shared by a sender, a controller and a receiver. The sender first performs a Bell-basis measurement on the qubits at hand, and the controller performs measurements under a non-maximally entangled Bellbasis after he knows the sender's measurement result. Then the receiver introduces an auxiliary qubit and performs some appropriate unitary transformations on his qubits. Quantum teleportation is realized after the receiver performs a local measurement on the auxiliary qubit and an appropriate unitary transformation on his qubit.

Controlled dense coding via multi-particles GHZ state and multi-particles GHZclass state are exploited in this letter. The quantum channel and the amount of information between the senders and the receivers are controlled by the supervisor via his local measurement. The amount of information is determined by Charlie's measurement in the former case of GHZ state, and also by the coefficients of the original GHZ-class state in the latter case.
