Intertwined atomic-nanoscale-microscale structures via intralayer anisotropic Fe-chains in the layered ferromagnet FePd2Te2

Controlling mesoscale and nanoscale material structures and properties through self-organized atomic behavior is essential for atomic-scale manufacturing. However, direct and visual studies on the cross-scale effects of such atomic self-organization on mesoscopic structures remain scarce. Here, we report the intertwined atomic-nanoscale-mesoscale structures via the intralayer Fe-chains in the sandwich-like layered FePd2Te2 crystal by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The hierarchical orthogonal corrugated morphologies are directly revealed and attributed to its chain-orientation-determined twinning-domain effect. Both Fe-chains of middle-sublayer and two kinds of Te atoms of top-sublayer are further atomically resolved at the sub-Å level, indicating the critical effects of Pd-atoms/voids on the intra-layer anisotropic Fe-chains and the interlayer structural alignment. The thermal-induced and strain-related structural transitions of surface layer are further investigated and discussed based on the proposed filling model of Pd-voids by the intralayer Pd-atoms. Our work not only provides deep understanding of this exotic layered magnetic material, and will inspire more perspectives for tailoring its anisotropic atomic-to-mesoscale structures and properties.

STEP3-VL-10B Technical Report

We present STEP3-VL-10B, a lightweight open-source foundation model designed to redefine the trade-off between compact efficiency and frontier-level multimodal intelligence. STEP3-VL-10B is realized through two strategic shifts: first, a unified, fully unfrozen pre-training strategy on 1.2T multimodal tokens that integrates a language-aligned Perception Encoder with a Qwen3-8B decoder to establish intrinsic vision-language synergy; and second, a scaled post-training pipeline featuring over 1k iterations of reinforcement learning. Crucially, we implement Parallel Coordinated Reasoning (PaCoRe) to scale test-time compute, allocating resources to scalable perceptual reasoning that explores and synthesizes diverse visual hypotheses. Consequently, despite its compact 10B footprint, STEP3-VL-10B rivals or surpasses models 10$\times$-20$\times$ larger (e.g., GLM-4.6V-106B, Qwen3-VL-235B) and top-tier proprietary flagships like Gemini 2.5 Pro and Seed-1.5-VL. Delivering best-in-class performance, it records 92.2% on MMBench and 80.11% on MMMU, while excelling in complex reasoning with 94.43% on AIME2025 and 75.95% on MathVision. We release the full model suite to provide the community with a powerful, efficient, and reproducible baseline.

Towards Unified Surgical Scene Understanding:Bridging Reasoning and Grounding via MLLMs

Surgical scene understanding is a cornerstone of computer-assisted intervention. While recent advances, particularly in surgical image segmentation, have driven progress, real-world clinical applications require a more holistic understanding that jointly captures procedural context, semantic reasoning, and precise visual grounding. However, existing approaches typically address these components in isolation, leading to fragmented representations and limited semantic consistency. To address this limitation, we propose SurgMLLM, a unified surgical scene understanding framework that bridges high-level reasoning and low-level visual grounding within a single model. Given surgical videos, SurgMLLM fine-tunes a multimodal large language model (MLLM) to support structured interpretability reasoning, which is used to jointly model phases, instrument-verb-target (IVT) triplets, and triplet-entity segmentation tokens. These tokens are then temporally aggregated and serve as prompts for a segmentation network, enabling accurate pixel-wise grounding of triplet instruments and targets. The entire framework is trained end-to-end with a unified objective that couples language-based reasoning supervision with visual grounding losses, promoting coherent cross-task learning and clinically consistent scene representations. To facilitate unified evaluation, we introduce CholecT45-Scene, extending CholecT45 dataset with 64,299 frames of pixel-level mask annotations for instruments and targets, aligned with existing triplet labels. Extensive experiments show that SurgMLLM significantly advances surgical scene understanding, improving the primary triplet recognition metric AP_IVT from 40.7% to 46.0% and consistently outperforming prior methods in phase recognition and segmentation. These results highlight the effectiveness of unified reasoning-and-grounding for reliable, context-aware surgical assistance.
