Kavli Affiliate: Julia R. Greer | First 5 Authors: Yejing Liu, Hao Wang, Jinfa Ho, Ryan C. Ng, Ray J. H. Ng | Summary: The rings, spots and stripes found on some butterflies, Pachyrhynchus weevils, and many chameleons are notable examples of natural organisms employing photonic crystals to produce colorful patterns. Despite advances in nanotechnology, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Fukun Liu | First 5 Authors: Weiye Xu, Handong Xu, Fukun Liu, Xiaojie Wang, | Summary: The real-time power monitoring of gyrotron is one of the key issues in the operation of electron cyclotron resonance heating system. The detector can be used for real-time power monitoring. We analyzed the principle of diode detection […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ali Javey | First 5 Authors: Der-Hsien Lien, Shiekh Zia Uddin, Matthew Yeh, Matin Amani, Hyungjin Kim | Summary: Defects in conventional semiconductors substantially lower the photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield (QY), a key metric of optoelectronic performance that directly dictates the maximum device efficiency. Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), such as monolayer […]

Kavli Affiliate: Dustin M. Schroeder | First 5 Authors: Ian M. Shoemaker, Alexander Kusenko, Peter Kuipers Munneke, Andrew Romero-Wolf, Dustin M. Schroeder | Summary: The ANITA balloon experiment was designed to detect radio signals initiated by neutrinos and cosmic ray air showers. These signals are typically discriminated by the polarization and phase inversions of the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Rafe Schindler | First 5 Authors: Qian Yang, Yue Shen, Yu-Ching Chen, Xin Liu, James Annis | Summary: We present new Gemini/GMOS optical spectroscopy of 16 extreme variability quasars (EVQs) that dimmed by more than 1.5 mag in the $g$ band between the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and the Dark Energy Survey […]
Kavli Affiliate: Eric Peng | First 5 Authors: The MSE Science Team, Carine Babusiaux, Maria Bergemann, Adam Burgasser, Sara Ellison | Summary: (Abridged) The Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer (MSE) is an end-to-end science platform for the design, execution and scientific exploitation of spectroscopic surveys. It will unveil the composition and dynamics of the faint Universe and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jin Suntivich | First 5 Authors: Padtaraporn Chanhom, Kevin E. Fritz, Lee Burton, Jan Kloppenburg, Yaroslav Filinchuk | Summary: Electrides are ionic crystals in which the electrons prefer to occupy free space, serving as anions. Because the electrons prefer to be in the pockets, channels, or layers to the atomic orbitals around the […]

Kavli Affiliate: Hiroaki Aihara | First 5 Authors: Toshiya Namikawa, Yuji Chinone, Hironao Miyatake, Masamune Oguri, Ryuichi Takahashi | Summary: We present the first measurement of cross-correlation between the lensing potential, reconstructed from cosmic microwave background (CMB) {it polarization} data, and the cosmic shear field from galaxy shapes. This measurement is made using data from […]
