Silicon nitride polarisation beam splitters: a review

IET Optoelectronics, 2020
In this work, the authors review different design setups of polarisation beam splitters (PBSs) developed in Si3N4 platforms. They analyse different approaches based on directional couplers and interferometers.

The Hunt for Environmental Noise in Virgo during the Third Observing Run

Galaxies, 2020
The first twenty years of operation of gravitational-wave interferometers have shown that these detectors are affected by physical disturbances from the surrounding environment. These are seismic, acoustic, or electromagnetic disturbances that are mainly

Conductance modulation of spin interferometers [PDF]

, 2003
We study the conductance modulation of gate controlled electron spin interferometers (also known as spin field effect transistors) based on the Rashba spin–orbit coupling effect.

Impact of Rapid Thermal Annealing on the Structural and Piezoelectric Properties of AlN Thin Films

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Aluminum nitride (AlN) is a biocompatible piezoelectric material suitable for energy harvesting in MEMS resonators. Through rapid thermal annealing, a threshold for CMOS‐compatible processes is established. AlN improved its crystallinity and enhanced the piezoelectric coefficient by ∼160%. Devices show an improvement in the electromechanical properties

Advancing Energy Materials by In Situ Atomic Scale Methods

Advanced Energy Materials, Volume 15, Issue 11, March 18, 2025.
Progress in in situ atomic scale methods leads to an improved understanding of new and advanced energy materials, where a local understanding of complex, inhomogeneous systems or interfaces down to the atomic scale and quantum level is required. Topics from photovoltaics, dissipation losses, phase transitions, and chemical energy conversion are ...

Clinically Informed Intelligent Classification of Ovarian Cancer Cells by Label‐Free Holographic Imaging Flow Cytometry

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
Quantitative phase maps of single cells recorded in flow cytometry modality feed a hierarchical architecture of machine learning models for the label‐free identification of subtypes of ovarian cancer. The employment of a priori clinical information improves the classification performance, thus emulating the clinical application of liquid biopsy during ...

Beating the Standard Quantum Limit With Single‐Photon‐Added Coherent States

Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
The standard quantum limit (SQL) defines how quantum fluctuations of light constrain measurement precision. Here, we show that injecting a single‐photon‐added coherent state and a weak coherent state in the input ports of a Mach–Zehnder interferometer reduces phase uncertainty below the SQL.
