Photoactivation of NV Centers in Diamond via Continuous Wave Laser Illumination of Shallow As‐Implanted Nitrogen

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates an alternative method of creating charge‐stable negatively charged nitrogen vacancy (NV−) centers close to the diamond surface without high‐temperature annealing. By illuminating nitrogen‐implanted regions with a continuous‐wave 405 nm laser, NV− centers are induced, exhibiting electron spin coherence properties suitable for ...

Hemispheric specialization in selective attention and short-term memory: a fine-coarse model of left- and right-ear disadvantages. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Serial short-term memory is impaired by irrelevant sound, particularly when the sound changes acoustically. This acoustic effect is larger when the sound is presented to the left compared to the right ear (a left-ear disadvantage).

Tuning the Dielectric Properties of Individual Clay Nanosheets by Interlayer Composition: Toward Nano‐Electret Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The dielectric properties of clays are studied on the level of individual monolayers and functional double stacks. The material breakdown characteristics and charge storage performance are analyzed. For illustration, a defined charge pattern representing a cuneiform character is produced, written into a microscopic clay tile, referencing the origins of

Correlates of linguistic rhythm in the speech signal [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Spoken languages have been classified by linguists according to their rhythmic properties, and psycholinguists have relied on this classification to account for infants’ capacity to discriminate languages.

CRISPR/Cas9‐Assisted Microrobots for Fast and Ultrasensitive “On‐The‐Fly” Next‐Generation DNA Detection

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents self‐propelled CRISPR/Cas9‐functionalized Au–MRs for rapid, amplification‐free, “on‐the‐fly” DNA detection. By harnessing motion‐assisted signal recovery, the platform achieved the limit of detection in low fM DNA concentrations, enabling detection across a wide dynamic range within only 5 min, which is significantly faster than any ...

ON THE USE OF ACOUSTIC IMPEDANCE VALUES TO DETERMINE SEDIMENT PROPERTIES

open access: yesAcoustic Classification and Mapping of the Seabed 1993
,/ Numerous systems have been developed over the past 25 years for remote classification of sediments. The generation of acoustic impedance as a function of depth is the principle behind operation of most normal-incidence acoustic classification systems.

Acoustic Properties of a Metamaterial Acoustic Barrier

open access: yes, 2020
In the last years, a lot of papers have reported the results of researchers on metamaterials. The study of metamaterials represents a new research field in noise control. Metamaterials are artificial structures with periodical elements, made by the arrangement of scatterers in a square or triangular lattice configuration.

Stimulated Brillouin scattering in metamaterials

open access: yes, 2016
We compute the SBS gain for a metamaterial comprising a cubic lattice of dielectric spheres suspended in a background dielectric material. Theoretical methods are presented to calculate the optical, acoustic, and opto-acoustic parameters that describe ...
