Characterization of Carrier Cooling Bottleneck in Silicon Nanoparticles by Extreme Ultraviolet (XUV) Transient Absorption Spectroscopy

Posted by April 12, 2021Caltech

Kavli Affiliate: Scott K. Cushing | First 5 Authors: Ilana J. Porter, Angela Lee, Scott K. Cushing, Hung-Tzu Chang, Justin C. Ondry | Summary: Silicon nanoparticles have the promise to surpass the theoretical efficiency limit of single-junction silicon photovoltaics by the creation of a "phonon bottleneck", a theorized slowing of the cooling rate of hot […]

Subaru High-z Exploration of Low-Luminosity Quasars (SHELLQs). XIII. Large-scale Feedback and Star Formation in a Low-Luminosity Quasar at z = 7.07 on the Local Black Hole to Host Mass Relation

Posted by April 12, 2021Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: John D. Silverman | First 5 Authors: Takuma Izumi, Yoshiki Matsuoka, Seiji Fujimoto, Masafusa Onoue, Michael A. Strauss | Summary: We present ALMA [CII] 158 $mu$m line and underlying far-infrared (FIR) continuum emission observations ($0”.70 times 0”.56$ resolution) toward HSC J124353.93$+$010038.5 (J1243$+$0100) at $z = 7.07$, the only low-luminosity ($M_{rm 1450} > -25$ […]

The stellar mass in and around isolated central galaxies: connections to the total mass distribution through galaxy-galaxy lensing in the Hyper Suprime-Cam survey

Posted by klaurent April 12, 2021Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: Naoki Yasuda | First 5 Authors: Wenting Wang, Xiangchong Li, Jingjing Shi, Jiaxin Han, Naoki Yasuda | Summary: Using photometric galaxies from the HSC survey, we measure the stellar mass density profiles for satellite galaxies as a function of the projected distance, $r_p$, to isolated central galaxies (ICGs) selected from SDSS/DR7 spectroscopic galaxies […]

Topological Dissipation in a Time-Multiplexed Photonic Resonator Network

Posted by klaurent April 12, 2021Caltech

Kavli Affiliate: Alireza Marandi | First 5 Authors: Christian Leefmans, Avik Dutt, James Williams, Luqi Yuan, Midya Parto | Summary: Topological phases feature robust edge states that are protected against the effects of defects and disorder. The robustness of these states presents opportunities to design technologies that are tolerant to fabrication errors and resilient to […]

A large deviation theory perspective on nanoscale transport phenomena

Posted by klaurent April 12, 2021Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: David T. Limmer | First 5 Authors: David T. Limmer, Chloe Y. Gao, Anthony R. Poggioli, , | Summary: Understanding transport processes in complex nanoscale systems, like ionic conductivities in nanofluidic devices or heat conduction in low dimensional solids, poses the problem of examining fluctuations of currents within nonequilibrium steady states and relating […]
