Organic mixed ionic electronic conductors (OMIECs) have the potential to enable diverse new technologies, ranging from biosensors to flexible energy storage devices and neuromorphic computing platforms. However, study of these materials in their operating
Magnetic materials are used in many devices in everyday life. To control their properties, we must first understand how they are ordered. This can be accomplished through neutron diffraction measurements. However, in many cases, there are too many

CHESS is a planned direct geometry neutron chopper spectrometer designed to detect and analyze weak signals intrinsic to small cross-sections (e.g., small mass, small magnetic moments or neutron absorbing materials) in powders, liquids and crystals. CHESS
In recent years, interesting materials have emerged which are only available as µm-scale flakes, and whose novel physics might be better understood through broadband microwave spectroscopy; examples include twisted bilayer graphene [1], 2D materials in
The \sc ocean} code for calculating near-edge x-ray spectra using the Bethe-Salpeter equation is briefly reviewed. The code is capable of calculating UV/Vis, near-edge x-ray absorption or non-resonant scattering, and resonant inelastic x-ray scattering

A (2+1)-dimensional gapped quantum many-body system can have a topologically protected energy current at its edge. The magnitude of this current is determined entirely by the temperature and the chiral central charge c_-, a quantity associated with the

Terpolymerization is a facile and effective strategy to control the aggregation and crystallinity of semiconducting polymers which has been exploited to improve the photovoltaic performance of all-polymer solar cells (all-PSCs). Applying this strategy to
Literature shows that, when using pressure media to achieve hydrostatic pressure under a constant pressure and volume, passing thru the P x T of the pressure gas to achieve low temperatures (1.5 K ≤ T 30 K) will cause an overall pressure reduction at base
