Kavli Affiliate: Nicholas L. Abbott | First 5 Authors: Fiona Mukherjee, Anye Shi, Xin Wang, Fengqi You, Nicholas L. Abbott | Summary: Identifying and removing microplastics (MPs) from the environment is a global challenge. This study explores how the colloidal fraction of common MPs behave at aqueous interfaces of liquid crystal (LC) films. We observed […]
Kavli Affiliate: Nicholas L. Abbott | Summary:Identifying and removing microplastics (MPs) from the environment is a global challenge. This study explores how the colloidal fraction of common MPs behave at aqueous interfaces of liquid crystal (LC) films. We observed polyethylene (PE) and polystyrene (PS) microparticles to be captured at the LC interface and exhibit distinct […]
Kavli Affiliate: Lena F. Kourkoutis | First 5 Authors: Suk Hyun Sung, Noah Schnitzer, William Millsaps, Lena F. Kourkoutis, Robert Hovden | Summary: This article introduces a training simulator for electron beam alignment using Ronchigrams. The interactive web application, www.ronchigram.com, is an advanced educational tool aimed at making scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) more accessible […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ankit Disa | Summary:By using intense coherent electromagnetic radiation, it may be possible to manipulate the properties of quantum materials very quickly, or even induce new and potentially useful phases that are absent in equilibrium. For instance, ultrafast control of magnetic dynamics is crucial for a number of proposed spintronic devices and can […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jie Shan | First 5 Authors: Kaifei Kang, Wenjin Zhao, Yihang Zeng, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi | Summary: Moir’e materials, with superlattice periodicity many times the atomic length scale, have enabled the studies of strong electronic correlations and band topology with unprecedented tunability. However, nonvolatile control of the moir’e potentials, which could allow […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jeevak Parpia | Summary:Because of the extreme purity, lack of disorder, and complex order parameter, the first-order superfluid $^3$He A-B transition is the leading model system for first order transitions in the early universe. Here we report on the path dependence of the supercooling of the A phase over a wide range of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jie Shan | First 5 Authors: Zui Tao, Bowen Shen, Shengwei Jiang, Tingxin Li, Lizhong Li | Summary: Moir’e materials provide fertile ground for the correlated and topological quantum phenomena. Among them, the quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) effect, in which the Hall resistance is quantized even under zero magnetic field, is a direct […]
Kavli Affiliate: Dan Luo | First 5 Authors: Dan Luo, Lixin Zou, Qingyao Ai, Zhiyu Chen, Dawei Yin | Summary: Unbiased Learning to Rank~(ULTR) that learns to rank documents with biased user feedback data is a well-known challenge in information retrieval. Existing methods in unbiased learning to rank typically rely on click modeling or inverse […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey Moses | Summary:Parametric amplifiers have allowed breakthroughs in ultrafast, strong-field, and high-energy density laser science and are an essential tool for extending the frequency range of powerful emerging diode-pumped solid-state laser technology. However, their impact is limited by inherently low quantum efficiency due to nonuniform light extraction. Here we demonstrate a new […]
