Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey Neaton | First 5 Authors: Nityan L. Nair, Marie-Eve Boulanger, Francis Laliberté, Sinead Griffin, Sanyum Channa | Summary: A signature property of Weyl semimetals is the existence of topologically protected surface states – arcs in momentum space that connect Weyl points in the bulk. However, the presence of bulks states makes detection […]

Kavli Affiliate: Naomi Ginsberg | First 5 Authors: Clarice D. Aiello, Andrea D. Pickel, Edward Barnard, Rebecca B. Wai, Christian Monachon | Summary: Crucial to analyze phenomena as varied as plasmonic hot spots and the spread of cancer in living tissue, nanoscale thermometry is challenging: probes are usually larger than the sample under study, and […]

Kavli Affiliate: Omar M. Yaghi | First 5 Authors: Nanette N. Jarenwattananon, Stefan Gloeggler, Trenton Otto, Arek Melkonian, William Morris | Summary: Over 85% of all chemical industry products are made using catalysts, with the overwhelming majority of these employing heterogeneous catalysts functioning at the gas-solid interface. Consequently, optimizing catalytic reactor design attracts much effort. […]

Kavli Affiliate: Graham Fleming | First 5 Authors: Seogjoo Jang, Stephan Hoyer, Graham Fleming, K. Birgitta Whaley, | Summary: A generalized master equation (GME) governing quantum evolution of modular exciton density (MED) is derived for large scale light harvesting systems composed of weakly interacting modules of multiple chromophores. The GME-MED offers a practical framework to […]
