Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This work explores the possibility to design stable periodic magnetization textures by transforming a 2D film into a rolled‐up 3D architecture and back. In case of an isotropic exchange‐biased layer architecture, the magnetization encoded in the 3D state evolves into a spin‐spiral pattern with controlled periodicity after unrolling.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This work presents a programmable atomic engineering strategy for 2D materials using Å‐scale nanoreactors formed by bilayer graphene (BLG) intercalation. A new class of alkali‐iron‐chloride compounds, along with lateral heterostructures composed of monolayer alkali halides and iron chlorides, is revealed.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Top‐down organic pillaring expands the interlayer spacing of bulk‐sized MoS2 particles while preserving the bulk morphology. Operando X‐ray diffraction and electrochemical dilatometry show that MoS2‐bulk undergoes solvent co‐intercalation in diglyme electrolyte, causing large structural expansion, while pillared, expanded MoS2 suppresses solvent uptake

Experimental implementation of a three-party quantum key distribution protocol
, 2006 We present a proof-of=principle experimental implementation of provably secure three-party quantum key distribution. The protocol's security relies on the quantum correlations of GHZ states but it is implemented using bipartite entanglement.

Interface Effects in Ultrathin Silicon on Insulator Films
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This work establishes a systematic framework to discriminate how bulk and interface phenomena affect charge transport in ultrathin P‐doped silicon‐on‐insulator (SOI) films. For Si films below 15 nm, electrical characterization demonstrates that interface states drive charge transport, shifting the metal‐insulator transition (MIT) critical dopant ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A cooperative and competitive interrelationship between alcohol oxidation (AOR) and water oxidation (OER) was observed on a typical anode catalyst of Ni2P. In situ Raman spectroscopy and electrochemical analyses revealed a specific complementary mechanism between them, in which OER and AOR critically contribute to the activity and stability of anodic ...

Automated equivalence checking of quantum information systems [PDF]
Quantum technologies have progressed beyond the laboratory setting and are beginning to make an impact on industrial development. The construction of practical, general purpose quantum computers has been challenging, to say the least.

Quantum-key-distribution (QKD) protocols that rely on coincidence events registered with two or more detectors are prone to detector saturation effects due to detector dead times.
