Temperature‐Dependent Properties of Amino‐As Based InAs/ZnSe Core‐Shell Quantum Dot Films

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
InAs colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) exhibit tunable optical bandgap covering the near‐infrared spectrum, making them attractive for various optoelectronicapplications. This work demonstrates that their optical properties are partially maintained up to 250°C, where Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy (KPFM) measurements reveal

Improving the Robustness of Visual Teach‐and‐Repeat Navigation Using Drift Error Correction and Event‐Based Vision for Low‐Light Environments

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Visual teach‐and‐repeat (VTR) navigation allows robots to learn and follow routes without building a full metric map. We show that navigation accuracy for VTR can be improved by integrating a topological map with error‐drift correction based on stereo vision.
