Polarity Inversion in Polar-Nonpolar-Polar Heterostructures [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2001
We have observed an epilayer-thickness-dependent polarity inversion for the growth of CdTe on Sb(Bi)/CdTe(111)B. For films with Sb(Bi) thicknesses of less than 40 A (15 A), the CdTe layer shows a B (Te-terminated) face, but it switches to an A (Cd-terminated) face for thicker layers.

Polar shapelets [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2005
The shapelets method for image analysis is based upon the decomposition of localised objects into a series of orthogonal components with convenient mathematical properties. We extend the "Cartesian shapelet" formalism from earlier work, and construct "polar shapelet" basis functions that separate an image into components with explicit rotational ...

Frontiers: Polarized America: From Political Polarization to Preference Polarization

open access: yesMarketing Science, 2023

Political polarization [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007
Failures of government policies often provoke opposite reactions from citizens; some call for a reversal of the policy, whereas others favor its continuation in stronger form. We offer an explanation of such polarization, based on a natural bimodality of preferences in political and economic contexts and consistent with Bayesian rationality.

Neuronal Polarity [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2009
The assembly of functional neuronal networks in the developing animal relies on the polarization of neurons, i.e., the formation of a single axon and multiple dendrites. Breaking the symmetry of neurons depends on cytoskeletal rearrangements. In particular, axon specification requires local dynamic instability of actin and stabilization of microtubules.

Steady-State Thermodynamics of a Cascaded Collision Model

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
We study the steady-state thermodynamics of a cascaded collision model where two subsystems S1 and S2 collide successively with an environment R in the cascaded fashion. We first formulate general expressions of thermodynamics quantities and identify the

Controlling polarization entanglement in biphotons generated with partially spatially coherent pump beam

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2021
We theoretically study the polarization entanglement and the non-local correlations manifested by biphotons using measures as concurrence and CHSH Bell test, generated in the spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) process for partially spatially ...

Measurement of optical activity by using polarization-holographic grating [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences
We propose a precise method for measuring the rotation angle of the polarization plane using a polarization-holographic grating combined with a quarter-wave plate. This approach enables real-time measurements with high accuracy.

A Lack of Resolved Near-Infrared Polarization Across the Face of M51 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The galaxy M51 was observed using the Mimir instrument on the Perkins telescope to constrain the resolved H-band (1.6 $\mu$m) polarization across the galaxy.

Neuronal polarization [PDF]

open access: yesDevelopment, 2015
Neurons are highly polarized cells with structurally and functionally distinct processes called axons and dendrites. This polarization underlies the directional flow of information in the central nervous system, so the establishment and maintenance of neuronal polarization is crucial for correct development and function.
