This work presents an electrically controllable approach to spin–valley polarization in monolayer WS2 by integrating it with a dual‐mode liquid crystal laser. Applying an external field triggers phase transitions that switch the laser emission between helicity‐defined band‐edge lasing and unpolarized random lasing.

Extrinsic Limitations of Stealthy Hyperuniform Devices
Stealthy hyperuniform devices exhibit a scattering‐free angular region whose extent follows a simple quenching equation. Experimental measurements confirm this prediction but reveal quenching efficiencies far below theoretical expectations. Multiple scattering and finite‐size effects are quantified, establishing realistic performance limits for ...

Understanding exciton fine structure is crucial for optoelectronic and quantum photonic applications of lead halide perovskites. It is demonstrated that polarization‐sensitive photon‐echo spectroscopy in a magnetic field resolves exciton fine‐structure splittings hidden by inhomogeneous broadening, enabling direct determination of the bright‐dark ...

This work presents a state‐adaptive Koopman linear quadratic regulator framework for real‐time manipulation of a deformable swab tool in robotic environmental sampling. By combining Koopman linearization, tactile sensing, and centroid‐based force regulation, the system maintains stable contact forces and high coverage across flat and inclined surfaces.
