Kavli Affiliate: Itai Cohen | First 5 Authors: Yuchao Chen, Yunus A. Kinkhabwala, Boris Barron, Matthew Hall, Tomas A. Arias | Summary: Decisions regarding housing, transportation, and resource allocation would all benefit from accurate small-area population forecasts. While various tried-and-tested forecast methods exist at regional scales, developing an accurate neighborhood-scale forecast remains a challenge partly […]

Kavli Affiliate: Darrell Schlom | First 5 Authors: Sourav Dutta, Abhishek Khanna, Adou S. Assoa, Hanjong Paik, Darrell Schlom | Summary: Computationally hard problems, including combinatorial optimization, can be mapped into the problem of finding the ground-state of an Ising Hamiltonian. Building physical systems with collective computational ability and distributed parallel processing capability can accelerate […]

Kavli Affiliate: Gregory D. Fuchs | First 5 Authors: Albert M. Park, Zhen Chen, Xiyue S. Zhang, Lijun Zhu, David A. Muller | Summary: Magnetic skyrmions hold promise for spintronic devices. To explore the dynamical properties of skyrmions in devices, a nanoscale method to image spin textures in response to a stimulus is essential. Here, […]

Kavli Affiliate: Paul L. McEuen | First 5 Authors: Baris Bircan, Marc Z. Miskin, Robert J. Lang, Michael C. Cao, Kyle J. Dorsey | Summary: Origami design principles are scale invariant and enable direct miniaturization of origami structures provided the sheets used for folding have equal thickness to length ratios. Recently, seminal steps have been […]

Kavli Affiliate: Gregory D. Fuchs | First 5 Authors: Raphaël S. Daveau, Tom Vandekerckhove, Arunabh Mukherjee, Zefang Wang, Jie Shan | Summary: Monolayer WSe$_2$ hosts bright single-photon emitters. Because of its compliance, monolayer WSe$_2$ conforms to patterned substrates without breaking, thus creating the potential for large local strain, which is one activation mechanism of its […]

Kavli Affiliate: Hector D. Abruna | First 5 Authors: Matej Velicky, Alvaro Rodriguez, Milan Bousa, Andrey V. Krayev, Martin Vondracek | Summary: Gold-mediated exfoliation of MoS2 has attracted considerable interest in the recent years. A strong interaction between MoS2 and Au facilitates preferential production of centimeter-sized monolayer MoS2 with near-unity yield and provides a heterostructure […]

Kavli Affiliate: Sol M. Gruner | First 5 Authors: Hugh T. Philipp, Mark W. Tate, Katherine S. Shanks, Prafull Purohit, Sol M. Gruner | Summary: A hard x-ray, high-speed, high dynamic range scientific x-ray imager is described. The imager is based on the mixed-mode pixel array detector (MM-PAD) readout chip coupled to a 750 micron […]

Kavli Affiliate: Ulrich Wiesner | First 5 Authors: Cédric Kilchoer, Narjes Abdollahi, James A. Dolan, Doha Abdelrahman, Matthias Saba | Summary: Over the past two decades, metamaterials have led to an increasing number of biosensing and nanophotonic applications due to the possibility of a careful control of light propagating through subwavelength features. Chiral nanostructures (characterized […]
