Quantum Saturation of the Electro‐Optic Effect

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
At low temperatures, quantum fluctuations saturate the ferroelectric soft mode, suppressing thermal sensitivity in functional properties. By tuning the phase boundaries of ferroelectric materials to 0 K, large temperature insensitive electro‐optic effects are realized, establishing a pathway toward high‐efficiency optical modulation for quantum ...

Wafer‐Scale Direct Growth of Ultraclean Monolayer Amorphous Carbon on c‐Sapphire by Remote Catalytic Dehydrogenation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Remote catalytic dehydrogenation enables the direct growth of monolayer amorphous carbon on a 2‐inch sapphire wafer by thermal CVD. Spatial separation of the catalyst from the growth substrate eliminates metallic residue and post‐growth processing, yielding a wafer‐scale uniform film with a random polygonal sp2‐hybridized carbon network that exhibits ...
