We demonstrate an optically controlled Kerr phase shifter using a room-temperature Rb85 vapor operating in a Raman gain scheme. Phase shifts from zero to 𝜋
Seismic fragility represents the probability that the structural response exceeds a given performance limit state due to a specified intensity of ground motion
We report strong evidence for a localized transition in the size variation of circular DNA between strong and moderate regimes of slitlike confinement. A novel

We use electromagnetically-induced transparency (EIT) laser cooling to cool motional modes of a linear ion chain. As a demonstration, we apply EIT cooling on
In this paper, we present a novel design framework aimed at developing cooperative diversity in 802.11-based wireless sensor networks. The proposed scheme is

We find that Epps [1] hypothesis - namely that the current experimental data set is well represented by a small constant or zero offset from the predictions of
Using a phase-field model of block copolymers (BCPs), we characterize how a chemoepitaxial template with parallel lines of arbitrary width affects the BCP
In this paper we revisit, with pedagogical emphasis for high-resolution spectroscopists, some presently existing discussions of phase factors for fixed-nuclei
Polymorphic variation in the apolipoprotein E (apoE) gene is the major genetic susceptibility factor for late onset Alzheimer's disease (AD) and likely
