Kavli Affiliate: Gijsje H. Koenderink | First 5 Authors: Anupama Gannavarapu, Sadjad Arzash, Iain Muntz, Jordan L. Shivers, Anna-Maria Klianeva | Summary: Fibrous networks such as collagen are common in biological systems. Recent theoretical and experimental efforts have shed light on the mechanics of single component networks. Most real biopolymer networks, however, are composites made […]
Kavli Affiliate: Srijit Goswami | First 5 Authors: Prasanna Rout, Nikos Papadopoulos, Fernando Peñaranda, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi | Summary: Bilayer graphene encapsulated in tungsten diselenide can host a weak topological phase with pairs of helical edge states. The electrical tunability of this phase makes it an ideal platform to investigate unique topological effects at […]

Kavli Affiliate: Stephanie Wehner | First 5 Authors: Guus Avis, Robert Knegjens, Anders S. Sørensen, Stephanie Wehner, | Summary: Restrictions imposed by existing infrastructure can make it hard to ensure an even spacing between the nodes of future fiber-based quantum networks. We here investigate the negative effects of asymmetric node placement by considering separately the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Menno Veldhorst | First 5 Authors: Lucas E. A. Stehouwer, Alberto Tosato, Davide Degli Esposti, Davide Costa, Menno Veldhorst | Summary: We grow strained Ge/SiGe heterostructures by reduced-pressure chemical vapor deposition on 100 mm Ge wafers. The use of Ge wafers as substrates for epitaxy enables high-quality Ge-rich SiGe strain-relaxed buffers with a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Natalia Chepiga | First 5 Authors: Zakaria Jouini, Natalia Chepiga, Loic Herviou, Frédéric Mila, | Summary: The properties of stable Luttinger liquid phases in models with a non-conserved number of particles are investigated. We study the Luttinger liquid phases in one-dimensional models of hard-core boson and spinless fermion chains where particles can be […]
Kavli Affiliate: Herre S. J. Van Der Zant | First 5 Authors: Hanqing Liu, Gabriele Baglioni, Carla B. Constant, Herre S. J. van der Zant, Peter G. Steeneken | Summary: The high susceptibility of ultrathin two-dimensional (2D) material resonators to force and temperature makes them ideal systems for sensing applications and exploring thermomechanical coupling. Although […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wolfgang Tittel | First 5 Authors: Yong Yu, Dorian Oser, Gaia Da Prato, Emanuele Urbinati, Javier Carrasco Ávila | Summary: Single quantum emitters embedded in solid-state hosts are an ideal platform for realizing quantum information processors and quantum network nodes. Among the currently-investigated candidates, Er$^{3+}$ ions are particularly appealing due to their 1.5 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gary A. Steele | First 5 Authors: Byoung-moo Ann, Gary A. Steele, , , | Summary: It is known that the quantum nature of the electromagnetic vacuum is responsible for the Lamb shift, which is a crucial phenomenon in quantum electrodynamics (QED). In circuit QED, the readout or bus resonators that are dispersively […]
