Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: This paper presents and analyzes an immersed finite element (IFE) method for solving Stokes interface problems with a piecewise constant viscosity coefficient that has a jump across the interface. In the method, the triangulation does not need to fit the interface […]
Kavli Affiliate: K. Birgitta Whaley | First 5 Authors: Yulong Dong, K. Birgitta Whaley, Lin Lin, , | Summary: Hamiltonian simulation is one of the most important problems in quantum computation, and quantum singular value transformation (QSVT) is an efficient way to simulate a general class of Hamiltonians. However, the QSVT circuit typically involves multiple […]

Kavli Affiliate: Joel E. Moore | First 5 Authors: Björn Sbierski, Max Geier, An-Ping Li, Matthew Brahlek, Robert G. Moore | Summary: The combination of two-dimensional Dirac surface states with s-wave superconductivity is expected to generate localized topological Majorana zero modes in vortex cores. Putative experimental signatures of these modes have been reported for heterostructures […]
Kavli Affiliate: Graham R. Fleming | First 5 Authors: Yusuke Yoneda, Eric A. Arsenault, Kaydren Orcutt, Masakazu Iwai, Graham R. Fleming | Summary: Photosystem II is crucial for life on Earth as it provides oxygen as a result of photoinduced electron transfer and water splitting reactions. The excited state dynamics of the photosystem II-reaction center […]

Kavli Affiliate: Ali Javey | First 5 Authors: Hyungjin Kim, Shiekh Zia Uddin, Naoki Higashitarumizu, Eran Rabani, Ali Javey | Summary: Most optoelectronic devices operate at high photocarrier densities, where all semiconductors suffer from enhanced nonradiative recombination. Nonradiative processes proportionately reduce photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield (QY), a performance metric that directly dictates the maximum device […]

Nonradiative processes proportionately reduce photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield (QY), a performance metric that directly dictates the maximum device efficiency.

Kavli Affiliate: Eli Yablonovitch | First 5 Authors: Georgia T. Papadakis, Meir Orenstein, Eli Yablonovitch, Shanhui Fan, | Summary: We evaluate near-field thermophotovoltaic (TPV) energy conversion systems focusing in particular on their open-circuit voltage (Voc). Unlike previous analyses based largely on numerical simulations with fluctuational electrodynamics, here, we develop an analytic model that captures the […]
