Since the advent of cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, blockchain, as their underlying technologies,has drawn a massive amount of attention from both academia and the industry. This ever-evolving technology inherits the “genes” of distributed systems, offering significant advantages of immutability, transparency,auditability, and tamper-resistance. These benefits help blockchain re-establish public confidence, and hold the significant promise of reliable information sharing and value transfer. Therefore, blockchain has become the foundation of crucial strategic deployments in countries across the world, and the fundamental basis for building the next generation Web 3.0 — “Internet of value”. In this article, we will start with unraveling the essential ingredients of blockchain technology, and showing the characteristics of each of these ingredients in the context of distributed systems. We will then present the core technical challenges that need to be addressed prior to unleashing its full potential, including its performance, scalability, and cross-chain interoperability. Finally, we will introduce the recent developments of blockchain systems, and discuss the future trends of the blockchain ecosystem.

This paper presents a novel design approach for creating higher-order wideband bandpass filters (BPFs). The technique builds on a conventional filter topology, featuring shunt short-circuited stubs connected by transmission lines. In this method, the traditional $\lambda_{\mathrm{g}}/4$ interconnecting lines and $\lambda_{\mathrm{g}}/4$ short-circuited stubs are replaced by a building block comprising $\lambda_{\mathrm{g}}/8$ lines separated by $\lambda_{\mathrm{g}}/8$ short-circuited coupled-line sections. To enhance selectivity, $)_{\vee \mathrm{g}}/2$ open-and short-circuited coupled-line segments are used at the filter's input and output. The paper provides design guidelines and formulas through ABCD analysis for practical filter implementations. Additionally, a design example is demonstrated, along with its practical validation through the manufacturing and testing of a fifth-order microstrip-type BPF.
Silicon nitride has great potential for integrated quantum photonics. We demonstrate monolithic integration of intrinsic quantum emitters in SiN with waveguides which show a room-temperature off-chip count rate of ~10...
