Chiral Acoustic Phonon and Conservation of Pseudoangular Momentum in α‐Quartz

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Chiral acoustic phonons in α‐quartz are probed via Brillouin light scattering, exploiting the photon's helicity and the crystal's handedness. The interaction obeys a selection rule arising from pseudoangular momentum conservation, enabling direct optical access to phonon chirality in nonsymmorphic crystals.

Charisma and Demons. Sources and Effects of a Political Concept

Scienza & Politica, 2020
The paper intends to investigate the sources of the very concept of charisma in Max Weber, starting from some polemical readings made by Carl Schmitt. Aside from theologian Karl Holl, particular attention is devoted to Protestant jurist Rudolf Sohm and ...

Constitutional Legitimacy [PDF]

, 2003
The problem of constitutional legitimacy is to establish why anyone should obey the command of a constitutionally-valid law. A lawmaking system is legitimate if there is a prima facie duty to obey the laws it makes. Neither consent of the governed nor

Opportunities of Semiconducting Oxide Nanostructures as Advanced Luminescent Materials in Photonics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The review discusses the challenges of wide and ultrawide bandgap semiconducting oxides as a suitable material platform for photonics. They offer great versatility in terms of tuning microstructure, native defects, doping, anisotropy, and micro‐ and nano‐structuring. The review focuses on their light emission, light‐confinement in optical cavities, and

Heroical Apatheism: Mala Fide Bootstrapping Obligations [PDF]

, 2018
Discussions on hypothetical gods virtually always focus on the latter’s existence or nonexistence. However, this is only the secondary question. Heroical apatheism distinguishes these questions from the primary question, which pertains to the importance ...

Dynamic Optical Lattices Through Conducting Polymer‐Gated Confinement

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The conducting polymer gate is incorporated into organic dielectric lattices to control the dynamic switching of nonlocal Mie resonances in the visible/NIR regions. The “closed gate” from oxidized PEDOT confines the light within dielectric nanocylinders and activates nonlocal Mie resonances, while the “opened gate” from reduced PEDOT facilitates ...

High Performance Flexible Optical Fiber Sensor Enabled by Er3+/Yb3+ Co‐Doped near Pure‐Green Upconversion Emission Phosphor for Implantable Temperature Sensing

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A superior double‐cladding optical fiber temperature sensor (OFTS) is fabricated by utilizing a bright and stable near‐pure green UC phosphor NaLu(WO4)2:Er3+/Yb3+ as sensing material. The OFTS exhibits a high temperature measurement accuracy of 0.155°C at 303 K, excellent measuring repeatability and chemical stability, along with strong resistance to ...
