Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Ferroelectric nanoclusters create local internal fields in a normally non‐switchable polar film because of polarization mismatch at their interfaces. That field opposes polarization in the regions with larger polarization and reinforces polarization in the regions with smaller polarization.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The internal quality factor of tantalum superconducting resonators is significantly increased by ∼140% in the low photon regime by passivating their surfaces with a high‐quality alkene self‐assembled monolayer. Our methodology promises to enhance the performance of superconducting quantum circuits.

INCAS BULLETINUnmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) are other names for drones, which are aircraft that do not have a pilot on board. A human operator can control it remotely, or it can fly itself using pre-programmed flight plans that use sensors and computers on board.

The Orienteering Problem with Drones
Transportation ScienceWe extend the classical problem setting of the orienteering problem (OP) to incorporate multiple drones that cooperate with a truck to visit a subset of the input nodes. We call this problem the OP with multiple drones (OP-mD). Drones have a limited battery endurance, and thus, they can either move together with the truck at no energy cost for the ...

DroneSilient (drone + resilient): an anti-drone system
Journal of Big DataAbstractIt is imperative to take a holistic strategy to thwarting drone threats, including the identification of drones and drone-like gadgets like ornithopters that visually imitate birds. In this study, we present the DroneSilient System, a novel anti-drone system that combines different parts. The DroneSilient system includes components that connect
