The hydrogen sulfide trimer and tetramer anions, (H2S)3– and (H2S)4–, were generated by Rydberg electron transfer and studied via a synergy between velocity-map imaging anion photoelectron spectroscopy and high-level quantum chemical calculations. The

The two-dimensional (2D)-phenylethyl ammonium lead iodide (2D-PEPI) is an exemplary hybrid organic-inorganic halide perovskite, possessing large spin-orbit coupling and forming multiple quantum wells (MQW). We have used helicity-dependent steady state

Alloyed transition metals dichalcogenides (TMDs) provide the unique opportunity for coupling band engineering and valleytronic phenomena in an atomically-thin platform. However, valley properties remain largely unexplored in TMD alloys. Here, we
Direct digital synthesis in concert with an electro-optic phase modulator was employed to generate optical frequency combs with tooth spacings as low as 100 Hz. These combs were utilized to probe electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) and hyperfine

This work presents 97 remeasured Fe V wavelengths (1200 Å to 1600 Å) and 123 remeasured Ni V wavelengths (1200 Å to 1400 Å) with uncertainties of approximately 2 mÅ. An additional 67 remeasured Fe V wavelengths and 72 remeasured Ni V wavelengths with

We use narrow spectral lines from the X-ray spectra of various highly charged ions to measure low-energy tail-like deviations from a Gaussian response function in a microcalorimeter X-ray spectrometer with Au absorbers at energies from 650 to 3320 eV. We

The acquisition of iron is essential to establishing virulence among most pathogens. Under acidic and/or anaerobic conditions, most bacteria utilize the widely-distributed ferrous iron (Fe2+) uptake (Feo) system to import metabolically-required iron. The

Current product composition and quality test methods for the paper and pulp industry are rooted in wet-bench chemistry techniques which are highly subjective. These techniques have rather limited utility and cannot be used to distinguish between virgin and

We present fully air clad suspended-silicon waveguides for efficient nonlinear interactions limited only by the silicon transparency. Novel fork-shaped couplers provide efficient input ( 2 dB) and broadband 3 dB output coupling spanning 6.0-8.5 υm
