Imperfection in Semiconductors Leading to High Performance Devices

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Crystalline perfection is typically pursued in semiconductors to enhance device performance. However, through modeling and experimental work, we show that defects can be strategically employed in a specific detection regime to increase sensitivity to extreme values. GaN diodes are demonstrated to effectively detect high‐energy proton beams at fluxes as

Solid Harmonic Wavelet Bispectrum for Image Analysis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The Solid Harmonic Wavelet Bispectrum (SHWB), a rotation‐ and translation‐invariant descriptor that captures higher‐order (phase) correlations in signals, is introduced. Combining wavelet scattering, bispectral analysis, and group theory, SHWB achieves interpretable, data‐efficient representations and demonstrates competitive performance across texture,

Wafer‐Scale Room‐Temperature Processing of Lead‐Free Perovskites for Optoelectronic Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We present the first wafer‐scale, room‐temperature synthesis of lead‐free Cs3Sb2X9 (X = Br, I) perovskite films via solvent‐free magnetron sputtering. The resulting high‐performance photodetectors achieve benchmark responsivity, bandwidth, and detectivity, enabling scalable manufacturing for next‐generation optoelectronics.

Using AI for Wave-front Estimation with the Rubin Observatory Active Optics System

The Astronomical Journal
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory will, over a period of 10 yr, repeatedly survey the southern sky. To ensure that images generated by Rubin meet the quality requirements for precision science, the observatory will use an active-optics system (AOS) to ...

Critical Limitations in Cryogenic Laser Cooling of Solids: Symmetry‐Related Fluorescence Trapping and Condensation‐Induced Parasitic Heating

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers two overlooked bottlenecks in cryogenic laser cooling of solids: symmetry‐driven fluorescence trapping and water vapor condensation. We demonstrate that breaking sample symmetry enhances fluorescence escape, while condensation dominates parasitic heating below 135 K.

Quantitative Stain Mapping in X‐Ray Virtual Histology

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Virtual histology promises 3D tissue examination without physical sectioning, yet has lacked the tissue‐specificity of conventional pathology. This work demonstrates the first quantitative three‐dimensional stain mapping at histologically relevant resolution, separating contrast agent from tissue to reveal cellular features such as nuclei. The approach

Leaky‐Integrate‐Fire Neuron via Synthetic Antiferromagnetic Coupling and Spin‐Orbit Torque

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A spintronic leaky‐integrate‐and‐fire neuron is realized using Spin Orbit Torque driven domain‐wall motion for integration and synthetic antiferromagnetic coupling for the leaky process. The specialized Hall‐bar geometry enables controlled DW dynamics, achieving repeatable integration and firing events. This compact, CMOS‐compatible design highlights a
