Polarization-sensitive photodetection using 2D/3D perovskite heterostructure crystal
Polarization-sensitive photodetectors based on anisotropic semiconductors exhibit a wide range of advantages in specialized applications, such as astronomy, remote sensing, and polarization-division multiplexing. For the active layer of polarization-.....»»
Searching for dark matter with the world"s most sensitive radio
Since the 1960s there has been plenty of evidence to support the existence of dark matter through astrophysical and cosmological observations, and at this point we're very confident that it exists. The question remains, though: what is dark matter ac.....»»
Nature more nitrogen-sensitive than previously thought: Critical loads lowered in the Netherlands
The average critical load for nitrogen deposition in the Netherlands is lower than previously assumed, according to new research by Wageningen Environmental Research, the Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency and Research Centre B-WARE. The val.....»»
Illuminating new horizons: Navigating nonlinear scattering with precision
In the intricate world of light, a journey through inhomogeneous media often leads to distortions in space, time, spectrum, and polarization. These distortions, detrimental to applications like optical manipulation, imaging, and communication, have l.....»»
Discovering enhanced lattice dynamics in a single-layered hybrid perovskite
Layered hybrid perovskites show diverse physical properties and exceptional functionality; however, from a materials science viewpoint, the co-existence of lattice order and structural disorder can hinder the understanding of such materials. Lattice.....»»

Overcoming challenges in electron transport through graphene nanostructures
Nothing in the world is perfect. This is also true in materials research. In computer simulations, one often represents a system in a highly idealized way; for example, one calculates the properties that an absolutely perfect crystal would have. In p.....»»
Quantum computer unveils atomic dynamics of light-sensitive molecules
Researchers at Duke University have implemented a quantum-based method to observe a quantum effect in the way light-absorbing molecules interact with incoming photons. Known as a conical intersection, the effect puts limitations on the paths molecule.....»»
Two networks, two realities, one big problem
National news coverage from the two largest broadcast outlets, CNN and Fox News, not only reflects growing political polarization in America, but in a recent publication, researchers at Virginia Tech have shown that partisan and inflammatory broadcas.....»»
A new route for universal polarization transformations of spatially varying polarization fields
Polarization describes the orientation of oscillations in a light wave, and it plays an essential role in various optical applications—from enhancing visibility in sunglasses and camera lenses to facilitating advanced optical communication and imag.....»»
"Thermometer" molecule confirmed on exoplanet WASP-31b
Chromium hydride (CrH), a molecule that's relatively rare and particularly sensitive to temperature, is useful as a "thermometer for stars," according to astronomer Laura Flagg, because it's abundant only in a narrow range between 1,200–2,000 degre.....»»
FTX, Genesis, BlockFi customer details at risk following data breach

Gmail Gets New Warnings for Sensitive Actions Taken
Google continues to do what it can to protect you within the services it offers. An example of such protections is with actions related to your Google account deemed to be sensitive. Google recognizes specific actions (like changes to settings) and t.....»»
Insights from past warming: Enhanced temperature seasonality in China during the mid-Holocene
Against the background of global warming, the temperature seasonality has changed obviously at global and regional scales, which has exerted significant ecological and societal impacts. As a populous country highly sensitive to climate change, China.....»»
Google Workspace: New account security, DLP capabilities announced
New capabilities in Google Workspace will help enterprises improve account and data security, by making unauthorized takeover of admin and user accounts and exfiltration of sensitive data more difficult. Some of these options are already available in.....»»
Team develops way to integrate electro-optic modulator device on end faces of a single-mode optical fiber jumper
Electro-optic modulators (EOMs) are cardinal elements in the optical communication networks that control the amplitude, phase and polarization of a light via external electric signals. Aiming to realize ultracompact and high-performance EOMs, most in.....»»
How to depolarize political toxicity on social media
While social media is often blamed for exacerbating incivility and partisan polarization, research led by Duke University scholars found that anonymous online conversations using a mobile chat platform they developed can reduce political polarization.....»»
