Imaging Electric Polarization Switching in Multilayer Graphene
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Domain wall sliding‐induced electric polarization switching is directly observed for the first time in multilayer graphene, enabled by a novel optical readout method. The polarization switching is realized upon application of global and local electric fields, and mechanical forces between neighboring polar domains of opposite out‐of‐plane polarizations

Polarization Dynamics in Ferroelectrics: Insights Enabled by Machine Learning Molecular Dynamics
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Machine learning molecular dynamics is presented as a route to capture polarization switching, domain wall kinetics, topological polar textures, and polar mechanical coupling beyond the limits of conventional atomistic methods. This Perspective surveys recent progress and identifies key methodological directions, including long‐range electrostatics ...

Fundamentals and applications of spatial dissipative solitons in photonic devices : [Chapter 6]
, 2009 We review the properties of optical spatial dissipative solitons (SDS). These are stable, self‐localized optical excitations sitting on a uniform, or quasi‐uniform, background in a dissipative environment like a nonlinear optical cavity.

Infinite hierarchy of solitons: Interaction of Kerr nonlinearity with even orders of dispersion
Physical Review Research, 2021 Temporal solitons are optical pulses that arise from the balance of negative group-velocity dispersion and self-phase modulation. For decades, only quadratic dispersion was considered with higher order dispersion often thought of as a nuisance. Following

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 ...

Baby Skyrme models without a potential term [PDF]
, 2015 We develop a one-parameter family of static baby Skyrme models that do not require a potential term to admit topological solitons. This is a novel property as the standard baby Skyrme model must contain a potential term in order to have stable soliton ...

Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The leading‐order asymptotic behavior of the solution of the Cauchy initial‐value problem for the Benjamin–Ono equation in L2(R)$L^2(\mathbb {R})$ is obtained explicitly for generic rational initial data u0$u_0$. An explicit asymptotic wave profile uZD(t,x;ε)$u^\mathrm{ZD}(t,x;\epsilon)$ is given, in terms of the branches of the multivalued ...

Solitons in low-dimensional sigma models [PDF]
, 1997 The aim of this thesis is to study topological soliton solutions in classical field theories, called sigma models, on a three-dimensional space. In chapter 1 we review the general field-theoretical framework of classical soliton solutions and exemplify ...
