Li+/H+ exchange in solid-state oxide Li-ion conductors

Kavli Affiliate: Gerbrand Ceder| Summary:Understanding the moisture stability of oxide Li-ion conductors is important for their practical applications in solid-state batteries. Unlike sulfide or halide conductors, oxide conductors generally better resist degradation when in contact with water, but can still undergo topotactic chLi+/chH+ exchange (LHX). Here, we combine density functional theory (DFT) calculations with a […]

Terahertz electrodynamics in a zero-field Wigner crystal

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Su-Di Chen, Su-Di Chen, , , | Summary: In clean two-dimensional (2D) systems, electrons are expected to self-organize into a regular lattice, a Wigner crystal, when their mutual Coulomb repulsion overwhelms kinetic energy. Understanding the Wigner crystal at zero magnetic field is a long-sought goal in physics, […]

Density-Functional Tight Binding Meets Maxwell: Unraveling the Mysteries of (Strong) Light-Matter Coupling Efficiently

Kavli Affiliate: Carlos Bustamante | Summary:Controlling chemical and material properties through strong light-matter coupling in optical cavities has gained considerable attention over the past decade. However, the underlying mechanisms remain insufficiently understood, and a significant gap persists between experimental observations and theoretical descriptions. This challenge arises from the intrinsically multi-scale nature of the problem, where […]

Depth-Aware Super-Resolution via Distance-Adaptive Variational Formulation

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Tianhao Guo, Tianhao Guo, , , | Summary: Single image super-resolution traditionally assumes spatially-invariant degradation models, yet real-world imaging systems exhibit complex distance-dependent effects including atmospheric scattering, depth-of-field variations, and perspective distortions. This fundamental limitation necessitates spatially-adaptive reconstruction strategies that explicitly incorporate geometric scene understanding for optimal […]
