Controlling Light in Scattering Materials for Volumetric Additive Manufacturing

Christophe Moser, Paul Delrot, Jorge Andres Madrid Wolff, Damien Claude-Marie Loterie, Antoine Vincent Boniface

3D printing has revolutionized the manufacturing of volumetric components and structures in many areas. Several fully volumetric light-based techniques have been recently developed thanks to the advent of photocurable resins, promising to reach unprecedent ...

Atom-surface van der Waals potentials of topological insulators and semimetals from scattering measurements

Davide Campi

The phenomenology of resonant scattering has been known since the earliest experiments upon scattering of atomic beams from surfaces and is a means of obtaining experimental information about the fundamentals of weak adsorption systems in the van der Waals ...

Effect of collisions on non-adiabatic electron dynamics in ITG-driven microturbulence

Stephan Brunner, Justin Richard Ball

Non-adiabatic electron response leads to significant changes in ion temperature gradient (ITG) eigenmodes, leading, in particular, to fine-structures that are significantly extended along the magnetic field lines at corresponding mode rational surfaces (MR ...

Remote Doping of Scalable Nanowire Branches

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Didem Dede, Martin George Friedl, Wonjong Kim, Nicholas Paul Morgan

Selective-area epitaxy provides a path toward high crystal quality, scalable, complex nanowire networks. These high-quality networks could be used in topological quantum computing as well as in ultrafast photodetection schemes. Control of the carrier densi ...

Hot-Hole versus Hot-Electron Transport at Cu/GaN Heterojunction Interfaces

Giulia Tagliabue

Among all plasmonic metals, copper (Cu) has the greatest potential for realizing optoelectronic and photochemical hot-carrier devices, thanks to its CMOS compatibility and outstanding catalytic properties. Yet, relative to gold (Au) or silver (Ag), Cu has ...

Tomographic imaging with harmonic holography in tissues of known refractive index distribution

Demetri Psaltis, Ye Pu

High-resolution imaging in thick biological tissues beyond a few transport mean free path of photons remains a formidable challenge to modern science and technology. Recent advancements in optical tomography have enabled the reconstruction of the three-dim ...

Velocity alignment promotes motility-induced phase separation

We study the phase behavior of polar active Brownian particles moving in two-spatial dimensions and interacting through volume exclusion and velocity alignment. We combine particle-based simulations of the microscopic model with a simple mean-field kinetic ...

Polystyrene CuO/Cu2O uniform films inducing MB-degradation under sunlight

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Sami Rtimi, Oualid Baghriche

This study reports on a Cu-sputtered film on polystyrene (PS) leading to the discoloration/degradation of methylene blue (MB) under low intensity solar simulated irradiation. Direct current magnetron sputtering (DCMS) was used to graft uniform, adhesive Cu ...

Boltzmann Transport in Nanostructures as a Friction Effect

Nicola Marzari, Andrea Cepellotti

Surface scattering is the key limiting factor to thermal transport in dielectric crystals as the length scales are reduced or when temperature is lowered. To explain this phenomenon, it is commonly assumed that the mean free paths of heat carriers are boun ...

Impact of neutral density fluctuations on gas puff imaging diagnostics

Paolo Ricci, Christoph Wersal

A three-dimensional turbulence simulation of the SOL and edge regions of a toroidally limited tokamak is carried out. The simulation couples self-consistently the drift-reduced two-fluid Braginskii equations to a kinetic equation for neutral atoms. A diagn ...
