Kavli Affiliate: Ali Hajimiri | First 5 Authors: Oren S. Mizrahi, Austin Fikes, Alan Truong, Fabian Wiesemüller, Sergio Pellegrino | Summary: Large apertures in space are critical for high-power and high-bandwidth applications spanning wireless power transfer (WPT) and communication, however progress on this front is stunted by the geometric limitations of rocket flight. Here, we […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Songlin Fan, Wei Gao, , , | Summary: Recently, widespread 3D graphics (e.g., point clouds and meshes) have drawn considerable efforts from academia and industry to assess their perceptual quality by conducting subjective experiments. However, lacking a handy software for 3D subjective experiments complicates the construction of […]

Kavli Affiliate: Morteza Gharib | First 5 Authors: Eric Sihite, Filip Slezak, Ioannis Mandralis, Adarsh Salagame, Milad Ramezani | Summary: Some animals exhibit multi-modal locomotion capability to traverse a wide range of terrains and environments, such as amphibians that can swim and walk or birds that can fly and walk. This capability is extremely beneficial […]
Kavli Affiliate: Rana X. Adhikari | First 5 Authors: Yuta Michimura, Haoyu Wang, Francisco Salces-Carcoba, Christopher Wipf, Aidan Brooks | Summary: Crystalline materials are promising candidates as substrates or high-reflective coatings of mirrors to reduce thermal noises in future laser interferometric gravitational wave detectors. However, birefringence of such materials could degrade the sensitivity of gravitational […]

Kavli Affiliate: Kerry Vahala | First 5 Authors: Igor Kudelin, William Groman, Qing-Xin Ji, Joel Guo, Megan L. Kelleher | Summary: Numerous modern technologies are reliant on the low-phase noise and exquisite timing stability of microwave signals. Substantial progress has been made in the field of microwave photonics, whereby low noise microwave signals are generated […]
Kavli Affiliate: Oskar Painter | First 5 Authors: Harry Levine, Arbel Haim, Jimmy S. C. Hung, Nasser Alidoust, Mahmoud Kalaee | Summary: Quantum error correction with erasure qubits promises significant advantages over standard error correction due to favorable thresholds for erasure errors. To realize this advantage in practice requires a qubit for which nearly all […]

Kavli Affiliate: Scott K. Cushing | First 5 Authors: Ye-Jin Kim, Jocelyn L. Mendes, Young Jai Choi, Scott K. Cushing, | Summary: Small polaron formation is dominant across a range of condensed matter systems. Small polarons are usually studied in terms of ground-state transport and thermal fluctuations, but small polarons can also be created impulsively […]
