Kavli Affiliate: Chiara Daraio | First 5 Authors: Paolo Celli, Ilaria Nunzi, Andrea Calabrese, Stefano Lenci, Chiara Daraio | Summary: We show that shear waves traveling towards the surface of a half-space medium can be attenuated via buried one-dimensional arrays of resonators — here called metapiles — arranged according to sparse patterns around a site […]

Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Hai-Jun Wu, Bing-Shi Yu, Zhi-Han Zhu, Wei Gao, Dong-Sheng Ding | Summary: Vectorial structured light with spatially varying amplitude, phase, and polarization is reshaping many areas of modern optics, including nonlinear optics, as diverse parametric processes can be used to explore interactions between such complex vector fields, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Chiara Daraio | First 5 Authors: Tapio Schneider, Oliver R. A. Dunbar, Jinlong Wu, Lucas Böttcher, Dmitry Burov | Summary: Testing, contact tracing, and isolation (TTI) is an epidemic management and control approach that is difficult to implement at scale. Here we demonstrate a scalable improvement to TTI that uses data assimilation (DA) […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Bo Ai, Wei Gao, Vinay, David Hsu, | Summary: How can a robot navigate successfully in a rich and diverse environment, indoors or outdoors, along an office corridor or a trail in the park, on the flat ground, the staircase, or the elevator, etc.? To this end, […]

To this end, this work aims to address three […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Wei Gao, Jie Chen, Cédric Richard, Wentao Shi, Qunfei Zhang | Summary: The recursive least-squares algorithm with $ell_1$-norm regularization ($ell_1$-RLS) exhibits excellent performance in terms of convergence rate and steady-state error in identification of sparse systems. Nevertheless few works have studied its stochastic behavior, in particular its […]
Kavli Affiliate: Paul W. K. Rothemund | First 5 Authors: Tyler D. Ross, Dino Osmanović, John F. Brady, Paul W. K. Rothemund, | Summary: Snell’s law, which encompasses both refraction and total internal reflection, provides the foundation for ray optics and all lens-based instruments, from microscopes to telescopes. Refraction results when light crosses the interface […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ali Hajimiri | First 5 Authors: Aroutin Khachaturian, Reza Fatemi, Artsroun Darbinian, Ali Hajimiri, | Summary: A solid-state active beamformer based on the annular-ring diffraction pattern is proposed for an integrated photonic platform. Such a circularly symmetric annular-ring aperture achieves radiating element limited FOV. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that a multi-annular-ring aperture with […]
