Kavli Affiliate: Chiara Daraio | First 5 Authors: Seola Lee, Seola Lee, , , | Summary: Wearable electronics are emerging as essential tools for health monitoring, haptic feedback, and human-computer interactions. While stable contact at the device-body interface is critical for these applications, it remains challenging due to the skin’s softness, roughness, and mechanical variability. […]

Kavli Affiliate: David A. Muller | First 5 Authors: Jaehong Choi, Jaehong Choi, , , | Summary: The Josephson junction is a crucial element in superconducting devices, and niobium is a promising candidate for the superconducting material due to its large energy gap relative to aluminum. AlO$_x$ has long been regarded as the highest quality […]
Kavli Affiliate: David A. Muller | First 5 Authors: Zixiao Shi, Zixiao Shi, , , | Summary: When hydrogen atoms occupy interstitial sites in metal lattices, they form metal hydrides (MHx), whose structural and electronic properties can differ significantly from the host metals. Owing to the small size of hydrogen atom and its unique interactions […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Wei Gao, Wei Gao, , , | Summary: Conventionally, human intuition often defines vision as a modality of passive optical sensing, while active optical sensing is typically regarded as measuring rather than the default modality of vision. However, the situation now changes: sensor technologies and data-driven paradigms […]
Kavli Affiliate: Paul D. Asimow | First 5 Authors: K. Marshall Seaton, K. Marshall Seaton, , , | Summary: The Europa Clipper mission will arrive at the Jovian system in 2030 and analyze ice grains sourced from the icy material on its surface using impact mass spectrometry, which will provide key constraints on Europa’s chemical […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Sukhad Dnyanesh Joshi, Sukhad Dnyanesh Joshi, , , | Summary: Leveraging our structure-adaptive topology optimization framework based on the integration of the photonic density of states over a frequency window for the TM polarization of light [see A. Bahulikar et al., arXiv:2411.09165 (2025)], we show that the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Haowen Wang, Haowen Wang, , , | Summary: In this paper, we address a key scientific problem in machine learning: Given a training set for an image classification task, can we train a generative model on this dataset to enhance the classification performance? (i.e., closed-set generative data […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Ziyu Liu, Ziyu Liu, , , | Summary: Self-supervised learning (SSL) for multivariate time series mainly includes two paradigms: contrastive methods that excel at instance discrimination and generative approaches that model data distributions. While effective individually, their complementary potential remains unexplored. We propose a Contrastive Generative Time […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Zuocheng Zhang, Zuocheng Zhang, , , | Summary: We report Coulomb drag studies in an electron-hole bilayer graphene heterostructure in a magnetic field, where the orbital, spin, and valley degrees of freedom are lifted by the combined effects of exchange interaction, Zeeman energy, and vertical displacement field.
