A Linear‐to‐Linear Cross‐Polarization Conversion q‐BIC Metasurface for Transmission Mode Mid‐Infrared Spectral Filtering

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Manipulating the ultranarrow linewidth spectral features of quasi bound states in the continuum is challenging. A metasurface supporting linear‐to‐linear cross‐polarization coupling efficiency surpassing 25% is proposed to address the issue. Less than 100 nm linewidth is achieved, enabling the device to be applied to wavelength‐selective polarization ...

Investigating conservation performance payments alongside human–wildlife conflicts: The Swedish lynx and wolverine protection policies

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Conservation performance payments are becoming an increasingly popular instrument to tackle human–wildlife conflicts. In Sweden, Sámi communities practicing reindeer husbandry receive performance payments as compensation for reindeer losses caused by lynxes and wolverines.

Space‐Efficient Logical Qubit Architecture with a Bus for Magic State Consumption

open access: yesAdvanced Quantum Technologies, EarlyView.
This paper proposes a logical qubit architecture, considering the consumption of magic states. By constructing the patch to the magic state using the repetition code and data qubits using the surface code, the proposed architecture minimizes the number of qubits, referred to as the space cost.

Conformational bifurcation drives dual transport regimes in molecular junctions: Unsupervised machine learning insights

open access: yesSmart Molecules, EarlyView.
Conformational bifurcation in n‐alk‐1‐yne molecular junctions drives dual transport regimes, with unsupervised machine learning and XPS revealing distinct planar and skewed conformers influencing conductance and tunneling efficiency. This discovery highlights anchor‐group control as a key design principle for tailoring molecular electronic devices ...

Labour's Commitment to 1.5 Million New Homes: Housing Delivery as an Orchestrator‐Intermediary Challenge

open access: yesThe Political Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract In the UK, the new Labour government has linked the intention to deliver more homes to reform of the planning system, which is seen as a key barrier. Two assumptions inform this reform. First, the system is sound, but there are problems with its administration.
