Photonic Crystal Surface Emitting Lasers (PCSEL)'s inverse design demands expert knowledge in physics, materials science, and quantum mechanics which is prohibitively labor-intensive. Advanced AI technologies, especially reinforcement…
Left-handedness signifies negative permittivity ($\varepsilon_r$) and permeability ((\mu_r)) in the same frequency band. The $\varepsilon_r$ and $\mu_r$ are evaluated in a quantized composite right-left handed transmission line (CRLH-TL),…
The refraction index of the quantized lossy composite right-left handed transmission line (CRLH-TL) is deduced in the thermal coherence state. The results show that the negative refraction index (herein the left-handedness) can be…
As optical telecommunication networks become more complex, there is an emerging need for systems capable of very complex switching and manipulation of large numbers of optical signals. MEMS enable these systems by combining excellent…
Early results on the plasma deposition of dielectric thin films on acoustic wave (AW) activated substrates revealed a densification pattern arisen from the focusing of plasma ions and their impact on specific areas of the piezoelectric…
Two-dimensional (2D) semiconducting transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are an exciting platform for new excitonic physics and next-generation electronics, creating a strong demand to understand their growth, doping, and…
The optical floating zone crystal growth technique is a well-established method for obtaining large, high-purity single crystals. While the floating zone method has been constantly evolving for over six decades, the development of…
We exploit the recent proposals for the light-induced superconductivity mediated by a Bose-Einstein condensate of exciton-polaritons to design a superconducting fiber that would enable long-distance transport of a supercurrent at elevated…
Spaceborne radar remote sensing of the earth system is essential to study natural and man-made changes in the ecosystem, water and energy cycles, weather and air quality, sea level, and surface dynamics. A major challenge with current…
The tumor microenvironment (TME) features distinct hallmarks, including acidosis, hypoxia, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and altered ion fluxes, which are crucial targets for early cancer biomarker detection, tumor diagnosis,…
Piezoresponse Force Microscopy (PFM) is one of the most widespread methods for investigating and visualizing ferroelectric domain structures down to the nanometer length scale. PFM makes use of the direct coupling of the piezoelectric…
Railway transition zones (RTZs) experience higher rates of degradation compared to open tracks, which leads to increased maintenance costs and reduced vailability. Despite existing literature on railway track assessment and maintenance,…
We model near-field thermal emission from metasurfaces structured as two-dimensional arrays of ellipsoidal SiC particles. The modeling approach is developed from fluctuational electrodynamics and is applicable to systems of ellipsoidal…
This report experimentally demonstrates the feasibility of applying an electrical current though a stationary graphene structure to induce magnetic non-reciprocity or, in other words, to create a static magnetic diode, and thereby validate…
People with injuries to the peripheral nervous system, due to its poor functional regeneration, suffer from paralysis of the facial muscles, fingers and hands, or toes and feet, often for the rest of their lives. Therefore, to improve…
Integrating multiple sensing capabilities into a single multimodal sensor greatly enhances its applications for in-situ sensing and structural health monitoring. However, the fabrication of multimodal sensors is complicated and limited by…
Conductive metal-organic frameworks (c-MOFs) and ionic liquids (ILs) have emerged as auspicious combinations for high-performance supercapacitors. However, the nanoconfinement from c-MOFs and high viscosity of ILs slow down the charging…
