Kavli Affiliate: Harry A. Atwater | First 5 Authors: Joeson Wong, Stefan T. Omelchenko, Harry A. Atwater, , | Summary: The theoretical maximum efficiency of a solar cell is typically characterized by a detailed balance of optical absorption and emission for a semiconductor in the limit of unity radiative efficiency and an ideal step-function response […]
Kavli Affiliate: Harry A. Atwater | First 5 Authors: Joeson Wong, Artur R. Davoyan, Bolin Liao, Andrey Krayev, Kiyoung Jo | Summary: Van der Waals materials exhibit naturally passivated surfaces and can form versatile heterostructures, enabling observation of carrier transport mechanisms not seen in three-dimensional materials. Here we report observation of a "band bending junction", […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kristin A. Persson | First 5 Authors: Casper W. Andersen, Rickard Armiento, Evgeny Blokhin, Gareth J. Conduit, Shyam Dwaraknath | Summary: The Open Databases Integration for Materials Design (OPTIMADE) consortium has designed a universal application programming interface (API) to make materials databases accessible and interoperable. We outline the first stable release of the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Eliska Greplova | First 5 Authors: Agnes Valenti, Guliuxin Jin, Julian Léonard, Sebastian D. Huber, Eliska Greplova | Summary: Large-scale quantum devices provide insights beyond the reach of classical simulations. However, for a reliable and verifiable quantum simulation, the building blocks of the quantum device require exquisite benchmarking. This benchmarking of large scale […]
Kavli Affiliate: Lena F. Kourkoutis | First 5 Authors: Yawen Fang, Hari P. Nair, Ludi Miao, Berit Goodge, Nathaniel J. Schreiber | Summary: We measure the Shubnikov-de Haas effect in thin-film Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ grown on an (LaAlO$_3$)$_{0.29}$-(SrAl$_{1/2}$Ta$_{1/2}$O$_3$)$_{0.71}$ (LSAT) substrate. We detect all three known Fermi surfaces and extract the Fermi surface volumes, cyclotron effective masses, and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Birgitta Whaley | First 5 Authors: Ian Convy, William Huggins, Haoran Liao, K. Birgitta Whaley, | Summary: Tensor networks have emerged as promising tools for machine learning, inspired by their widespread use as variational ansatze in quantum many-body physics. It is well known that the success of a given tensor network ansatz depends […]
Kavli Affiliate: David T. Limmer | First 5 Authors: Chloe Ya Gao, David T. Limmer, , , | Summary: We introduce a thermodynamically consistent, minimal stochastic model for complementary logic gates built with field-effect transistors. We characterize the performance of such gates with tools from information theory and study the interplay between accuracy, speed, and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shmuel M. Rubinstein | First 5 Authors: Rodolfo Ostilla-Mónico, Ryan McKeown, Michael P. Brenner, Shmuel M. Rubinstein, Alain Pumir | Summary: At high Reynolds number, the interaction between two vortex tubes leads to intense velocity gradients, which are at the heart of fluid turbulence. This vorticity amplification comes about through two different instability […]
Kavli Affiliate: Katja C. Nowack | First 5 Authors: D. Low, G. M. Ferguson, Alexander Jarjour, Brian T. Schaefer, Maja D. Bachmann | Summary: We report a scanning superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) microscope in a cryogen-free dilution refrigerator with a base temperature at the sample stage of at least 30 mK. The microscope is […]
Kavli Affiliate: Lena F. Kourkoutis | First 5 Authors: Suk Hyun Sung, Noah Schnitzer, Steve Novakov, Ismail El Baggari, Xiangpeng Luo | Summary: Compelling evidence suggests distinct correlated electron behavior may exist only in clean 2D materials such as 1T-TaS2. Unfortunately, experiment and theory suggest that extrinsic disorder in free standing 2D layers disrupts correlation-driven […]
