Single-molecule magnets weakly coupled to two ferromagnetic leads act as memory devices in electronic circuits---their response depends on history, not just on the instantaneous applied voltage. We show that magnetic anisotropy introduces a…
Surface acoustic waveguides are increasing in interest for (bio)chemical detection. The surface mass modification leads to measurable changes in the propagation properties of the waveguide. Among a wide variety of waveguides, Love mode has…
Repeated quantum measurements can generate effective new non-equilibrium dynamics in matter. Here we combine such a measurement driven system with disorder. In particular, we investigate the diffusive behavior in the system and the effect…
Many biological systems can sense periodical variations in a stimulus input and produce well-timed, anticipatory responses after the input is removed. Such systems show memory effects for retaining timing information in the stimulus and…
Atherosclerotic lesions within carotid and cerebral vessels are likely to influence hemodynamics and manifest into vascular pathologies, including Alzheimers Disease and ischemic stroke. Hemodynamics are influenced by changes in luminal…
Conventional and spin-related thermoelectric effects in electronic transport through a nanoscopic system exhibiting magnetic anisotropy $-$with both uniaxial and transverse components$-$ are studied theoretically in the linear response…
The non-equilibrium boron nitride (BN) phase of zinc oxide (ZnO) has been reported for thin films and nanostructures, however, its properties are not well understood due to a persistent controversy that prevents reconciling experimental and…
Memristors have been positioned at the forefront of the purposes for carrying out neuromorphic computation. Their tuneable conductivity properties enable the imitation of synaptic behaviour. Multipore nanofluidic memristors have shown their…
The stimulated emission of exciton-polaritons was proposed as a means of lowering the lasing threshold because it does not require the dissociation of excitons to obtain an electron-hole plasma, as in a classical semiconductor laser based…
We studied LSMO/Alq3/AlOx/Co molecular spin valves in view of their use as synapses in neuromorphic computing. In neuromorphic computing, the learning ability is embodied in specific changes of the synaptic weight. In this perspective, the…
The extent to which disorder influences the properties of topological semimetals remains an open question and is relevant to both the understanding of topological states and the use of topological materials in practical applications. Here,…
The relaxation of stochastic systems after sudden perturbations is constrained by speed limits and often reveals memory effects that hinder attempts to accelerate their dynamics. Here we demonstrate Kovacs-type nonmonotonic relaxation in…
Two different zinc oxide nanoparticles, as well as zinc ions, are used to study the cellular responses of the RAW 264 macrophage cell line. A proteomic screen is used to provide a wide view of the molecular effects of zinc, and the most…
A comparative study of the physical properties of undoped Zinc Oxide (ZnO) and Al doped Zinc Oxide (AZO) thin films were performed as a function of annealing temperature. The structural properties were analyzed using X-ray diffraction and…
The function of many membrane-enclosed intracellular structures relies on release of diffusing particles that exit through narrow pores or channels in the membrane. The rate of release varies with pore size, density, and length of the…
Recent research has shown that motile cells can adapt their mode of propulsion to the mechanical properties of the environment in which they find themselves--crawling in some environments while swimming in others. The latter can involve…
We investigate the effects of nanoparticles on the onset of varicose and whipping instabilities in the dynamics of electrified jets. In particular, we show that the non-linear interplay between the mass of the nanoparticles and…
Swimming microorganisms often self propel in fluids with complex rheology. While past theoretical work indicates that fluid viscoelasticity should hinder their locomotion, recent experiments on waving swimmers suggest a possible…
