Quantum dot (QD) lasers enable intrinsically feedback-tolerant, isolator-free silicon photonic integrated circuits (PICs), eliminating the bulky optical isolators traditionally required to suppress ...
The microscopic origin of line tension, used in the equilibrium description of liquid drops on flat surfaces, is not well understood. Simulations of water nanodroplets show that structural transitions ...
G7 pressure for Beijing ⁠to revalue its currency have resurfaced but even a 25% increase in the yuan would not overcome China's vast ‌cost ⁠edge. Closing the gap requires trimming regulation, ...
