Kavli Affiliate: Oskar Painter | First 5 Authors: Mohammad Mirhosseini, Alp Sipahigil, Mahmoud Kalaee, Oskar Painter, | Summary: Bidirectional conversion of electrical and optical signals lies at the foundation of the global internet. Such converters are employed at repeater stations to extend the reach of long-haul fiber optic communication systems and within data centers to […]
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: Scott K. Cushing | First 5 Authors: Szilard Szoke, Hanzhe Liu, Bryce P. Hickam, Manni He, Scott K. Cushing | Summary: Entangled photons exhibit non-classical light-matter interactions that create new opportunities in materials and molecular science. For example, in entangled two-photon absorption, the intensity-dependence scales linearly as if only one photon was present. […]
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 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sander Tans | First 5 Authors: Duco van Holthe tot Echten, Gerhard Nordemann, Martijn Wehrens, Sander Tans, Timon Idema | Summary: Colonies of rod-shaped bacteria constitute a system of colloidal active matter with nematic properties. As a single initial bacterium multiplies through repeated divisions, the resulting colony quickly loses long-range orientational order, but […]

Kavli Affiliate: Kerry J. Vahala | First 5 Authors: Chengying Bao, Myoung-Gyun Suh, Boqiang Shen, Kemal Şafak, Anan Dai | Summary: Coherently-pumped (Kerr) solitons in an ideal optical microcavity are expected to undergo random quantum motion that determines fundamental performance limits in applications of soliton microcombs. Here, this diffusive motion and its impact on Kerr […]
Kavli Affiliate: Brad J. Ramshaw | First 5 Authors: Mun K. Chan, Ross D. McDonald, Brad J. Ramshaw, Jon B. Betts, Arkady Shekhter | Summary: High magnetic fields have revealed a surprisingly small Fermi-surface in underdoped cuprates, possibly resulting from Fermi-surface reconstruction due to an order parameter that breaks translational symmetry of the crystal lattice. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Leonardo Dicarlo | First 5 Authors: Xiang Zou, Shavindra P. Premaratne, M. Adriaan Rol, Sonika Johri, Viacheslav Ostroukh | Summary: Quantum computers with tens to hundreds of noisy qubits are being developed today. To be useful for real-world applications, we believe that these near-term systems cannot simply be scaled-down non-error-corrected versions of future […]
