Aquatic devices that can work on both water and oils have great scientific and practical significance, but the challenge remains in developing novel materials with excellent repellence to both water and oils. Here, we report that an artificial "strider" can float on both water and oils by using supporting legs with ul…

implanted Si. Local symmetry was determined by fitting crystal field parameters (CFPs), corresponding to various common symmetries, to the ground state splitting determined by photoluminescence measurements. These CFP values were then used to calculate the splitting of every J manifold. We find that both Dy and Tm ion…

In this letter, we report a full-metallic broadband wave plate assembled by standing metallic L-shaped stereostructures (LSSs). We show that with an array of LSSs, high polarization conversion ratio is achieved within a broad frequency band. Moreover, by rotating the orientation of the array of LSSs, the electric comp…
