Voltage-gated optics and plasmonics enabled by solid-state proton pumping
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-11-06)
Devices with locally-addressable and dynamically tunable optical properties underpin emerging technologies such as high-resolution reflective displays and dynamic holography. The optical properties of metals such as Y and ...
Nonlinear Dynamics of Preheating after Multifield Inflation with Nonminimal Couplings
(American Physical Society (APS), 2019-10-25)
We study the postinflation dynamics of multifield models involving nonminimal couplings using lattice simulations to capture significant nonlinear effects like backreaction and rescattering. We measure the effective equation ...
Enantiomeric glycosylated cationic block co-beta-peptides eradicate Staphylococcus aureus biofilms and antibiotic-tolerant persisters
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-10-21)
The treatment of bacterial infections is hindered by the presence of biofilms and metabolically inactive persisters. Here, we report the synthesis of an enantiomeric block co-beta-peptide, poly(amido-D-glucose)-block-pol ...
Gene networks that compensate for crosstalk with crosstalk
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-09-06)
Crosstalk is a major challenge to engineering sophisticated synthetic gene networks. A common approach is to insulate signal-transduction pathways by minimizing molecular-level crosstalk between endogenous and synthetic ...
Percolation thresholds for photonic quantum computing
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-03-06)
Despite linear-optical fusion (Bell measurement) being probabilistic, photonic cluster states for universal quantum computation can be prepared without feed-forward by fusing small n-photon entangled clusters, if the success ...
Towards integrated tunable all-silicon free-electron light sources
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-07-18)
Extracting light from silicon is a longstanding challenge in modern engineering and physics. While silicon has underpinned the past 70 years of electronics advancement, a facile tunable and efficient silicon-based light ...
Nuclei multiplexing with barcoded antibodies for single-nucleus genomics
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-07-02)
Single-nucleus RNA-seq (snRNA-seq) enables the interrogation of cellular states in complex tissues that are challenging to dissociate or are frozen, and opens the way to human genetics studies, clinical trials, and precise ...
Hamiltonian engineering with constrained optimization for quantum sensing and control
(IOP Publishing, 2019-02)
While quantum devices rely on interactions between constituent subsystems and with their environment to operate, native interactions alone often fail to deliver targeted performance. Coherent pulsed control provides the ...
Search for Scalar Diphoton Resonances in the Mass Range 65–600 GeV with the ATLAS Detector inppCollision Data ats=8 TeV
(American Physical Society (APS), 2014-10-20)
© 2014 authors. Published by the American Physical Society. A search for scalar particles decaying via narrow resonances into two photons in the mass range 65-600 GeV is performed using 20.3 fb-1 of √s = 8 TeV pp collision ...
Lowering the CUORE energy threshold
(IOP Publishing, 2017-09)
© Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd. The Cryogenic Underground Observatory for Rare Events (CUORE) is a ton-scale double beta decay experiment based on TeO 2 cryogenic bolometers and is currently in the last ...
