The microscopic mechanism of the metal-insulator transition is studied by orbital-resolved 51V NMR spectroscopy in a prototype of the quasi-one-dimensional system V6O13. We uncover that the transition involves a site-selective d orbital…
Most adaptive optics (AO) systems using pyramid wavefront sensors (PyWFS) to estimate the phase of the pupil field use mechanical modulation of the beam in order to increase the dynamic range in low-order modes so the PyWFS can usefully…
