Essay on exoticism : an aesthetics of diversity /

open access: yes, 2002
The 'Other' - source of fear and fascination; emblem of difference demonized and romanticized. This pioneering work on otherness anticipates and informs much of the current postcolonial critique of colonial discourse.

Orientation‐Engineered Insulator‐Metal Transition in Vanadium Dioxide

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Crystallographic orientation engineering in VO2/TiO2 heterostructures enables tunable insulator‐metal transitions. The high‐Miller‐index (102) orientation breaks in‐plane mirror symmetry, inducing anisotropic transport, while its inclined oxygen channels accelerate protonation kinetics.

Van der Waals Heterostructures for Next‐Generation Spintronics: Multiferroic‐Mediated Magnetoelectric Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
As CMOS technology approaches fundamental energy limits, new paradigms for low‐power information processing are required. Magnetic systems are attractive for their spin transport, yet current‐induced magnetization control is energy inefficient. Multiferroic heterostructures enable energy‐efficient electric field manipulation of magnetism.

Tanizaki's Naomi, Nabokov's Lolita, and Naomi's Lolita: Exoticism of a New Era [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Exoticism is a recurring motif in Japanese novelist Tanizaki Jun’ichiro’s Naomi or Chijin no ai “A Fool’s Love” (1924), in Russian American writer Vladimir Nabokov’s Lolita (1955), as well as in the Lolita subculture fashion today.

High‐Pressure Modulation of Breathing Kagome Lattice: Cascade of Lifshitz Transitions and Evolution of the Electronic Structure

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
External pressure directly tunes the breathing distortion of the kagome lattice in Fe3Sn2, suppressing it near 15 GPa and reversing it at higher pressures. This structural modulation drives a cascade of Lifshitz transitions, reconstructs the Fermi surface, strengthens electronic correlations and carrier localization, and modifies ultrafast electron ...

High Upper Critical Field and Type II Superconductivity in Epitaxial Cubic W2N Thin Films

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Superconducting thin films of stoichiometric W2N demonstrate a high upper critical field (Hc2) of ∼ 8.5 T, uncommon among binary transition metal nitrides. This robust superconducting response under high magnetic fields highlights the technological relevance of W2N for superconducting applications, e.g., integrated quantum and cryogenic electronics ...

Odrazy teoretických antropologických koncepcí v obrazech etnického turismu na Sumbě

open access: yesAntropoWebzin, 2012
Many theoretical concepts formed in social sciences in virtue of intercultural contacts are nowadays perceived as obsolete. Romanticizing, exoticizing or primitivist images were coupled to „foreign and remote societies“ as far back as in 15th century ...

Biebl's Collection S lodí jež dováží čaj a kávu and its Context (the Exoticism of the Avant-garde) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This work's main concern is the analysis of the transformation of exoticism motives in Konstantin Biebl's S lodí jež dováží čaj a kávu. The interpretations of the text follow the context of the avant-garde exoticism in the era after World War I.

Green's Functions of Non‐Hermitian Systems at Exceptional Deficiency

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We analyze the responses of a non‐Hermitian lattice system under the condition of exceptional deficiency (ED), when all bands in the system are formed by exceptional points. Using the frequency domain, we identify novel steady‐state responses that root in the broadband super‐Lorentzian Green's function (GF).
