Porous carbons have been widely utilized as electrode materials for capacitive energy storage. Whereas the importance of pore size and geometry on the device performance has been well recognized, little guidance is available for identification of carbon materials with ideal porous structures. In this work, we study th…

A universal property of resonant subwavelength scatterers is that their optical cross-sections are proportional to a square wavelength, λ 2, regardless of whether they are plasmonic nanoparticles, two-level quantum systems, or RF antennas. The maximum cross-section is an intrinsic property of the incident field: plane…

Exchange-coupled hard-soft biphase magnets are technologically relevant systems in that they enable tailoring the magnetization reversal process. Here, exchange-spring behavior is observed in $\mathrm{CoF}{\mathrm{e}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{4}$/FeCo bilayers for soft thicknesses as thin as 2 nm, at least four times below th…
