Anomalous crystalline ordering of particles in a viscoelastic fluid under high shear

Kavli Affiliate: David A. Weitz | First 5 Authors: Sijie Sun, Nan Xue, Stefano Aime, Hyoungsoo Kim, Jizhou Tang | Summary: Addition of particles to a viscoelastic suspension dramatically alters the properties of the mixture, particularly when it is sheared or otherwise processed. Shear-induced stretching of the polymers results in elastic stress that causes a […]

Defeating Broken Symmetry with Doping: Symmetric Resonant Tunneling in Noncentrosymetric Heterostructures

Kavli Affiliate: Grace Xing | First 5 Authors: Jimy Encomendero, Vladimir Protasenko, Debdeep Jena, Huili Grace Xing, | Summary: Resonant tunneling transport in polar heterostructures is intimately connected to the polarization fields emerging from the geometric Berry-phase. In these structures, quantum confinement results not only in a discrete electronic spectrum, but also in built-in polarization […]

DiM: Distilling Dataset into Generative Model

Kavli Affiliate: Zheng Zhu | First 5 Authors: Kai Wang, Jianyang Gu, Daquan Zhou, Zheng Zhu, Wei Jiang | Summary: Dataset distillation reduces the network training cost by synthesizing small and informative datasets from large-scale ones. Despite the success of the recent dataset distillation algorithms, three drawbacks still limit their wider application: i). the synthetic […]

Aharonov-Bohm magnetism in open Fermi surfaces

Kavli Affiliate: Anton Akhmerov | First 5 Authors: Kostas Vilkelis, Ady Stern, Anton Akhmerov, , | Summary: Orbital diamagnetism requires closed orbits according to the Liftshiftz-Kosevich theory. Therefore, one might expect that open Fermi surfaces do not have a diamagnetic response. Contrary to this expectation, we show that open orbits in finite systems do contribute […]

Flux-Tunable Hybridization in a Double Quantum Dot Interferometer

Kavli Affiliate: Srijit Goswami | First 5 Authors: Christian G. Prosko, Ivan Kulesh, Michael Chan, Lin Han, Di Xiao | Summary: A single electron shared between two levels threaded by a magnetic flux is an irreducibly simple quantum system in which interference is predicted to occur. We demonstrate tuning of the tunnel coupling between two […]

Practical Strategies for Enhancing the Valley Splitting in Si/SiGe Quantum Wells

Kavli Affiliate: Giordano Scappucci | First 5 Authors: Merritt P. Losert, M. A. Eriksson, Robert Joynt, Rajib Rahman, Giordano Scappucci | Summary: Silicon/silicon-germanium heterostructures have many important advantages for hosting spin qubits. However, controlling the valley splitting (the energy splitting between the two low-lying conduction-band valleys) remains a critical challenge for ensuring qubit reliability. Broad […]
