Kavli Affiliate: Scott K. Cushing | First 5 Authors: Alexei A. Maznev, Wonseok Lee, Scott K. Cushing, Dario De Angelis, Danny Fainozzi | Summary: Self-diffraction is a non-collinear four-wave mixing technique well-known in optics. We explore self-diffraction in the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) range, taking advantage of intense femtosecond EUV pulses produced by a free electron […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Zhengyang Lu, Bingjie Lu, Weifan Wang, Feng Wang, | Summary: Fabric defect detection confronts two fundamental challenges. First, conventional non-maximum suppression disrupts gradient flow, which hinders genuine end-to-end learning. Second, acquiring pixel-level annotations at industrial scale is prohibitively costly. Addressing these limitations, we propose a differentiable NMS […]
Kavli Affiliate: Stephanie Wehner | First 5 Authors: Samuel Oslovich, Bart van der Vecht, Stephanie Wehner, , | Summary: Execution of quantum network applications requires a software stack for nodes. Recently, the first designs and demonstrations have been proposed for such software stacks, including QNodeOS and its extension, Qoala. The latter enables compilation strategies previously […]
Kavli Affiliate: Giordano Scappucci | First 5 Authors: Juan S. Rojas-Arias, Akito Noiri, Jun Yoneda, Peter Stano, Takashi Nakajima | Summary: We investigate low-frequency noise in a spin-qubit device made in isotopically purified Si/Si-Ge. Observing sizable cross-correlations among energy fluctuations of different qubits, we conclude that these fluctuations are dominated by charge noise. At low […]
Kavli Affiliate: Carlos Bustamante | First 5 Authors: Martin Selin, Antonio Ciarlo, Giuseppe Pesce, Lars Bengtsson, Joan Camunas-Soler | Summary: There is a trend in research towards more automation using smart systems powered by artificial intelligence. While experiments are often challenging to automate, they can greatly benefit from automation by reducing labor and increasing reproducibility. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Divyansh Srivastava, Xiang Zhang, He Wen, Chenru Wen, Zhuowen Tu | Summary: We present Lay-Your-Scene (shorthand LayouSyn), a novel text-to-layout generation pipeline for natural scenes. Prior scene layout generation methods are either closed-vocabulary or use proprietary large language models for open-vocabulary generation, limiting their modeling capabilities and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael L. Roukes | First 5 Authors: Andrew N. Cleland, Michael L. Roukes, , , | Summary: We describe a method with which to fabricate sub-micron mechanical structures from silicon-on-insulator substrates. We believe this is the first reported method for such fabrication, and our technique allows for complex, multilayer electron beam lithography to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Harry A. Atwater | First 5 Authors: Prachi Thureja, Andrew W. Nyholm, Martin Thomaschewski, Phillip R. Jahelka, Julie Belleville | Summary: We report a scalable approach for fabricating single-crystal barium titanate (BTO) thin films through spalling from bulk substrates. Conventional thin film growth techniques often face challenges in achieving high-quality single crystal microstructure […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Zilong Chen, Yikai Wang, Wenqiang Sun, Feng Wang, Yiwen Chen | Summary: In this paper, we introduce MeshGen, an advanced image-to-3D pipeline that generates high-quality 3D meshes with detailed geometry and physically based rendering (PBR) textures. Addressing the challenges faced by existing 3D native diffusion models, such […]
Kavli Affiliate: David Charbonneau | First 5 Authors: Patrick Tamburo, Samuel W. Yee, Juliana García-Mejía, Gudmundur Stefánsson, David Charbonneau | Summary: We measure the true obliquity of TOI-2364, a K dwarf with a sub-Saturn-mass ($M_p = 0.18,M_J$) transiting planet on the upper edge of the hot Neptune desert. We used new Rossiter-McLaughlin observations gathered with […]
