Azobenzene's Cross‐Scale Optics and Photonics: Molecular Photoswitching, Mesoscopic Material Motions, and Adaptive Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Azobenzene photoswitches translate molecular‐scale E/Z photoisomerization into macroscopic material responses and device‐level photonic functions. This Review highlights how azobenzene research has evolved from molecular photochemistry to photoalignment, mass migration, photomechanics, and heat release, ultimately enabling holography, reconfigurable ...

Sky type classification in Harbin during winter

open access: yesJournal of Asian Architecture and Building Engineering, 2020
Sky type classification is a significant element in daylight simulation. As a “winter city”, the daylight climate of Harbin is distinctive, and there is therefore a particular need to determine the most appropriate sky models to establish sky luminance ...

The clear‐sky index to separate clear‐sky from cloudy‐sky situations in climate research

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2000
Accurate surface radiation fluxes are required to quantify atmosphere‐surface energy exchanges. In climate research, detailed investigations of the influence of diverse atmospheric conditions on radiative fluxes ask for a well‐defined distinction between clear‐sky and cloudy‐sky situations.

n‐Type Polymer Radio Frequency Rectifiers Operating at 18.5 GHz

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Combining an n‐doped polymer semiconductor with wafer‐scale asymmetric planar electrodes featuring work function‐engineered contacts yields radio‐frequency diodes and rectifying circuits operating at up to 18.5 GHz. The devices combine scalable manufacturing with an operating frequency previously unattainable by large‐area organic electronics ...

Retrieval of All-Sky Land Surface Temperature from MERSI-II/FY-3D Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Land surface temperature (LST) is a key variable in the physics of land surface processes on both regional and global scales. This paper addresses the all-sky (clear-sky and cloudy-sky) LSTs retrieval from the data acquired by the Medium-Resolution ...

Optimal Control Drives Ultrafast and Energy‐Efficient Magnetization Switching in Van der Waals Magnets

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The accelerating expansion of data‐centric technologies is sharply increasing the energy burden of information storage, placing unprecedented pressure on the efficiency of magnetic switching. Conventional field‐driven reversal, once the foundation of magnetic memory, has become impractical in modern architectures due to its high energy cost ...

Resonant Domain Wall Dynamics in a Three‐Dimensional Magnetic Nano Double Helix

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
3D magnetic nanostructures promise exciting possibilities for magnetization dynamics. However, experimental realizations remain scarce. In nanoprinted cobalt double helices, time‐resolved X‐ray microscopy reveals harmonic domain wall dynamics. Simulations identify the mode and additional higher‐frequency resonances, revealing a rich dynamic landscape ...

Altitude Adjustment of Empirical Models for Estimating Clear-Sky Solar Irradiance

open access: yesAnnals of West University of Timisoara: Physics
This research provides an innovative empirical model for solar irradiance estimation under clear sky conditions. The new model adjusts the estimates of G-EM clear-sky solar irradiance model (Goilean et al. AWUT-Physics 66, 2024, 241) with respect to site

Weak In‐Plane Ferromagnetism and Electronic Nematicity in the Distorted Triple‐Q Magnetic Phase of Co1/3TaS2

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Co1/3TaS2${\rm Co}_{1/3}{\rm TaS}_{2}$ hosts a triple‐Q noncoplanar antiferromagnetic state with coexisting Z3${\rm Z}_3$ electronic nematicity. We report rotational hysteresis observed in both magnetoresistance and magnetic torque, revealing strongly pinned in‐plane weak ferromagnetic moments in the triple‐Q phase and the magnetism‐driven nature of ...
