Double gate fully depleted SOI transistors operating in a remote gate configuration and under closed-loop feedback allow noise performance that exceeds their single gate counterparts by more than an order of magnitude. We leverage this high performance to

Abstract Nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in nanodiamond hold great promise for creating superior biological labels and quantum sensing methods. Yet, inefficient photon generation and extraction from excited NV centers restricts the achievable sensitivity and

Sorting single-chirality enantiomers is the ultimate goal for single-wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) separation. In this work, aqueous two-phase extraction (ATPE) is used to obtain highly purified (>80%) left- and right-handed (6,5) SWCNTs with limited

The electrochemical oxidation of H2 is > 100 times slower in alkaline electroltyes in comparison to acidic electrolytes. Here, we report that ordered intermetallic PtSb is a potent catalyst for the alkaline hydrogen oxidation reaction. PtSb exhibits higher

Voltage-tuning of the magnetic anisotropy is dempnstrated in ferrimagnetic insulating rare earth iron garnets on a piezoelectric substrate, (011)-oriented PMN-PT. A yttrium-substituted dysprosium iron garnet (YDyIG) film 42 nm thick is grown via pulsed

Optical parametric oscillators are a ubiquitous technology used to generate coherent light at frequencies not accessible by conventional laser gain. However, chip-based parametric oscillators operating in the visible spectrum have suffered from pump-to
As an important development of the last decades, mechanical properties of nanoscale materials have been extracted from nanoindentation and atomic force microscopy. These techniques rely on contact mechanics models to convert the measured probe response

Although superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) are a promising technology for quantum optics, metrology, and astronomy, they currently lack a readout architecture that is scalable to the megapixel regime and beyond. In this work, we
From microcircuits to metamaterials, micropatterning surfaces adds valuable functionality. For non-planar surfaces, however, incompatibility with conventional microlithography requires transferring originally planar micropatterns onto those surfaces but

Polyethyleneimine (PEI) conjugated gold nanoparticles (Au-PEIs) have potential use as positively charged gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) for nanomedical applications, due to their cationic surface that promotes cellular uptake and gene transfection. We report

In recent years, scanning probe microscopy (SPM) has drawn substantial attention for subsurface imaging, since the ultra-sharp AFM tip (≈10 nm in radius) can deliver and detect, mechanical and electrical signals right above the material's 3D volume with

Low power consumption in the static and dynamic modes of operation is a key requirement in the development of modern electronics. Tunnel field-effect transistors with direct band-to-band charge tunnelling and steep-subthreshold-slope transfer

A critical and extensive comparison was made between differential mobility analysis (DMA) measurements of the mean diameter of monodisperse gold nanoparticles (AuNP), based on step-voltage mode and the more commonly used scan-voltage mode (commercially
