Observation of Topological Chirality Switching Induced Freezing of a Skyrmion Crystal

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Using Lorentz Transmission electron microscopy, it is shown that in the insulating van der Waals ferromagnet, CrBr3, a magnetic field can cause Bloch skyrmionic bubbles to spontaneously switch their chirality. As achiral type‐II bubbles are an intermediate state, the bubbles rapidly elongate and shrink when switching, thereby inducing a freezing of the

Comparing Sound Localization Deficits in Bilateral Cochlear-Implant Users and Vocoder Simulations With Normal-Hearing Listeners

Trends in Hearing, 2014
Bilateral cochlear-implant (BiCI) users are less accurate at localizing free-field (FF) sound sources than normal-hearing (NH) listeners. This performance gap is not well understood but is likely due to a combination of compromises in acoustic signal ...

Hearing in three dimensions: Sound localization [PDF]

The ability to localize a source of sound in space is a fundamental component of the three dimensional character of the sound of audio. For over a century scientists have been trying to understand the physical and psychological processes and ...

Observation of Dislocation Bound States and Skin Effects in Non‐Hermitian Chern Insulators

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Experimental observation of the dislocation‐induced bound states and skin effects is demonstrated in a line‐gap non‐Hermitian acoustic lattice. By utilizing active meta‐atoms to measure the full complex spectrum and biorthogonal eigenstates, the study reveals the exceptional‐point‐driven melting of defect modes.

Multiphysics‐Driven Assembly of Biomimetic Vesicles

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Artificial extracellular vesicles, derived from cell membranes, are manufactured using a multiphysics‐integrated microfluidic platform that combines nanoknife membrane rupture, herringbone chaotic mixing, and acoustothermal modulation. This standardizable workflow enables the predictable control of vesicle formation and therapeutic loading, while ...

Sound Source Localization in Spherical Harmonics Domain Based on High-Order Ambisonics Signals Enhancement Neural Network

IEEE Access
Compared with methods based on microphone arrays, sound source localization methods based on higher-order ambisonics (HOA) signals are no longer limited to specific array structures and exhibit better performance in multi-source scenarios.
