Kavli Affiliate: Dan Luo | First 5 Authors: Yuexi Zhang, Dan Luo, Balaji Sundareshan, Octavia Camps, Mario Sznaier | Summary: Cross view action recognition (CVAR) seeks to recognize a human action when observed from a previously unseen viewpoint. This is a challenging problem since the appearance of an action changes significantly with the viewpoint. Applications […]
Kavli Affiliate: Scott K. Cushing | First 5 Authors: Kim H. Pham, Kiarash Gordiz, Jonathan M. Michelsen, Hanzhe Liu, Daniele Vivona | Summary: Ionic conduction in solids that exceeds 0.01 S/cm is predicted to involve collective phonon-ion interactions in the crystal lattice. Here, we use theory and experiment to measure the contribution of possible collective […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jie Shan | First 5 Authors: Yihang Zeng, Zhengchao Xia, Kaifei Kang, Jiacheng Zhu, Patrick Knüppel | Summary: Chern insulators, which are the lattice analogs of the quantum Hall states, can potentially manifest high-temperature topological orders at zero magnetic field to enable next-generation topological quantum devices. To date, integer Chern insulators have been […]

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: Ulrich B. Wiesner | First 5 Authors: Dmitry Karpov, Kenza Djeghdi, Mirko Holler, S. Narjes Abdollahi, Karolina Godlewska | Summary: Highly periodic structures are often said to convey the beauty of nature. However, most material properties are strongly influenced by the defects they contain. On the mesoscopic scale, molecular self-assembly exemplifies this interplay; […]

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: Paul W. Sternberg | First 5 Authors: Tingtao Zhou, Xuan Wan, Daniel Zhengyu Huang, Zongyi Li, Zhiwei Peng | Summary: Bacteria can swim upstream due to hydrodynamic interactions with the fluid flow in a narrow tube, and pose a clinical threat of urinary tract infection to patients implanted with catheters. Coatings and structured […]
