Abstract Broadband‐operating active devices within a small‐footprint are highly on demand in various nanophotonic fields such as fiber‐optic communication systems and chip‐based integrated optical circuits. As pioneering approaches, diverse platforms of active metasurfaces (AMs) have been proposed due to their superio…

Diatoms contribute nearly half of the marine primary production. These microalgae differ from other phytoplankton groups in having a silicified cell wall, which is the strongest known biological material relative to its density. While it has been suggested that a siliceous wall may have evolved as a mechanical protect…

We present a synthesis of large-area single-layer graphene on copper substrate using a refined cooking palm oil, a natural single carbon source, by a home-made spray injector-assisted chemical vapor deposition system. The effects of the distance between spray nozzle and substrate, and growth temperature are studied. F…

We present the ultralow-temperature specific heat and thermal conductivity measurements on single crystals of triangular-lattice organic compound EtMe$_3$Sb[Pd(dmit)$_2$]$_2$, which has long been considered as a gapless quantum spin liquid candidate. In specific heat measurements, a finite linear term is observed, con…

The discovery of ideal spin-1/2 kagome antiferromagnets Herbertsmithite and Zn-doped Barlowite represents a breakthrough in the quest for quantum spin liquids (QSLs), and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy plays a prominent role in revealing the quantum paramagnetism in these compounds. However, interpretat…

Valley, as a new degree of freedom, raises the valleytronics in fundamental and applied science. The elastic analogs of valley states have been proposed by mimicking the symmetrical structure of either two-dimensional materials or photonic valley crystals. However, the asymmetrical valley construction remains unfulfil…

A major challenge in spin-based electronics is reducing power consumption for magnetization switching of ferromagnets, which is being implemented by injecting a large spin-polarized current. The alternative approach is to control the magnetic anisotropy (MA) of the ferromagnet by an electric field. However, the voltag…

In this study, we formulate a density functional theory (DFT) for systems of labeled particles, considering a two-dimensional bead-spring lattice with a magnetic dipole on every bead as a model for ferrogels. On the one hand, DFT has been widely studied to investigate fluid-like states of materials, in which constitue…

The phonon dispersion is one of the most fundamental properties of a crystalline material. It determines virtually all of its physical properties, including optical, electronic, mechanical, and thermal behavior. Despite its importance, the phonon dispersion of MoS${}_{2}$ -- one of the most investigated two-dimensiona…

We discuss phonon-induced non-Markovian and Markovian features in QD-based optics. We cover lineshapes in linear absorption experiments, phonon-induced incoherence in the Heitler regime, and memory correlations in two-photon coherences. To quantitatively and qualitatively understand the underlying physics, we present…
