High‐Density Topological Defect Array by Two‐Step Interference Photoalignment

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
High density arrays of topological defects in nematic liquid crystal are realized by two‐step interference photoalignment, with a minimal distance of 1.25 micrometer and disclination lines connecting defects on opposing substrates. Such layers can be used as reconfigurable templates for photonic devices to achieve large angle diffraction, beam shaping ...

Optical orbital angular momentum transfer to electronic currents

New Journal of Physics
Light orbital angular momentum (OAM) is transformed into an electronic current loop in a copper coil, by absorption of the optical radiation. The measurement of this current, that is in the 10 ^−17 A range, makes it possible to evaluate and quantify the ...

A Quasigroup Approach for Conservation Laws in Asymptotically Flat Spacetimes

Universe
In the framework of the quasigroup approach to conservation laws in general relativity, we show how the infinite-parametric Newman–Unti group of asymptotic symmetries can be reduced to the Poincaré quasigroup. We compute Noether’s charges associated with

Oxygen Evolution Reaction Catalysts for Acidic‐Media CO2 Electrolyzers

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Acidic‐media CO2 electroreduction (CO2R) could decarbonize chemical production, despite relying on rare‐earth elements for anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Transferring the learnings from mature sister technologies (water electrolysis) could accelerate technological development.

Interfaces in Large Area 2D Materials Integration: From Epitaxial Growth and Clean Transfer to Interface‐Dominated Performance

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This Review proposes an interface‐centric framework for large‐area 2D materials integration, linking wafer‐scale single‐crystal epitaxy, clean transfer and deterministic stacking, and interface‐dominated structure–property–device correlations. We summarize how interfacial symmetry and energetics govern nucleation/coalescence and adhesion‐controlled ...

Transducers Across Scales and Frequencies: A System‐Level Framework for Multiphysics Integration and Co‐Design

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Transducers convert physical signals into electrical and optical representations, yet each mechanism is bounded by intrinsic trade‐offs across bandwidth, sensitivity, speed, and energy. This review maps transduction mechanisms across physical scale and frequency, showing how heterogeneous integration and multiphysics co‐design transform isolated ...

New Directions in Focused Ion Beam Induced Deposition for the Nanoprinting of Functional 3D Heterostructures

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Here, it is shown that focused ion beam induced deposition (FIBID) using helium and neon ions enables advanced high‐resolution 3D nanoprinting achieving precise multimaterial architectures and engineered internal voids. Thus, FIBID with finely focused noble gas ion species is presented as a unique platform for designing functional nanomaterials for ...

Critical angular momentum of light

Results in Physics
The critical angle is the angle of incidence above which total internal reflection occurs at different dielectric interfaces, which is extensively employed in various aspects, such as optical fiber. However, these studies often limit the consideration of

Solution‐Processed Spin‐Polarized Light‐Emitting Diodes of Colloidal Quantum Wells and Magnetic Nanoparticles

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
All‐solution‐processed spin‐LEDs based on colloidal Fe3O4 nanoparticles and CdSe/CdZnS core/shell CQWs that allows for polarization modulation of electroluminescence are fabricated. With these devices, electrical injection of spin‐polarized carriers from the Fe3O4 nanoparticle layer into the CdSe/CdZnS CQWs is demonstrated, realizing circularly ...
