Nanodiamond Sensing in Dynamic Environments With Fast‐Tracking Through Four‐Point Positioning

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A four‐point positioning tracking (4PPT) platform enables fast 3D feedback translational tracking of fluorescent nanodiamonds while simultaneously recording ODMR spectra. By integrating real‐time translational tracking with quantum sensing, mobile nanodiamonds are used for in‐situ nanothermometry, nanorheometry, and 6D translation–rotation tracking in ...

Self‐Cooling Molecular Spin Qudits

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A material made of [GdEr] molecular dimers can encode a qudit and perform as a magnetic refrigerant. Microwave resonant pulses coherently manipulate its 16 spin states, while direct demagnetization measurements cool the material and a device down to temperatures below 1 K.

A novel Q‐band asymmetric T/R switch in GaAs pHEMT using second‐order band‐stop filter for wideband RX‐mode isolation

Electronics Letters, 2023
To improve the RX‐mode isolation of asymmetric T/R switches, a new circuit topology is proposed. The proposed asymmetric T/R switch topology features a second‐order band‐stop filter in its TX path, which extends the bandwidth of isolation in the RX mode.
