Kavli Affiliate: Darrell G. Schlom | First 5 Authors: Prosper Ngabonziza, Jisung Park, Wilfried Sigle, Peter A. van Aken, Jochen Mannhart | Summary: We report a synthetic route to achieve high electron mobility at room temperature in epitaxial La:BaSnO$_3$/SrZrO$_3$ heterostructures prepared on several oxide substrates. Room-temperature mobilities of 157, 145, and 143 cm$^2$V$^{-1}$s$^{-1}$ are achieved […]

McEuen | Summary: We present a general transfer method for the heterogeneous integration of different photonic and electronic materials systems and devices onto a single substrate. Called BLAST, for Bond, Lift, Align, and […]

Kavli Affiliate: David A. Muller | First 5 Authors: Zeming Sun, Zhaslan Baraissov, Ryan D. Porter, Liana Shpani, Yu-Tsun Shao | Summary: Workbench-size particle accelerators, enabled by Nb3Sn-based superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities, hold the potential of driving scientific discovery by offering a widely accessible and affordable source of high-energy electrons and X-rays. Thin-film Nb3Sn RF […]

Kavli Affiliate: Itai Cohen | First 5 Authors: Teaya Yang, David Hathcock, Yuchao Chen, Paul McEuen, James P. Sethna | Summary: We propose a novel design paradigm for multistate machines where transitions from one state to another are organized by bifurcations of multiple equilibria of the energy landscape describing the collective interactions of the machine […]
