Tariq Fahmi, Robert Gutierrez, Ana Barrios, Tae Joon Cho, John Elliott, Sanghamitra Majumdar, Bryant Nelson, Aaron Johnston-Peck, Alessandro Tona, Anil Patri, Elijah Petersen
Assays to detect potential biocompatibility issues can play a key role in supporting the development of new technologies such as medical products containing engineered nanomaterials (ENMs). In this paper, we describe an evaluation of sources of uncertainty

Compatibility of trapped ions and dielectrics at cryogenic temperatures

November 17, 2025
Author(s)
Margaret Bruff, Lindsay Sonderhouse, Kaitlyn David, Daniel Slichter, Dietrich Leibfried, Jules Stuart
We study the impact of an unshielded dielectric\textemdash here, a bare optical fiber\textemdash on a $^40}$Ca$^+}$ ion held several hundred $\mu$m away in a cryogenic surface electrode trap. We observe distance-dependent stray electric fields of up to a

Charge-state dependent ion condensation near conjugated polymer backbones

November 15, 2025
Author(s)
Dilara Meli, Quentin Thomas, Guillaume Freychet, Lucas Flagg, Iain McCulloch, David Beljonne, Lee Richter, Jonathan Rivnay
Despite the technological appeal of organic mixed ionic/electronic conductors (OMIECs) for a range of applications, a deep understanding of the fundamentals of mixed charge transport in these materials, especially regarding the ionic component, is lacking

Single-photon time-of-flight measurements for benchmarking time transfer in quantum networks

November 14, 2025
Author(s)
Dongxing He, Paulina Kuo, YaShian Li-Baboud, Anouar Rahmouni, Matthew Shaw, Boris Korzh, Thomas Gerrits
We propose a single-photon time-of-flight (ToF) measurement method to benchmark fiber-path delay estimation in optical two-way time and frequency transfer (OTWTFT) protocols. The single-photon ToF measurement yields uncertainties better than 2 ps (0.5 mm

AI and Flow Cytometry

November 10, 2025
Author(s)
Dawei Lin, Anupama Gururaj, Sheng Lin-Gibson, Lili Wang
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are transforming biotechnology and playing a key role in bioeconomy. One of the most important measurement capabilities at the forefront of biotechnology innovations is flow cytometry (FCM), a high

Multi-timescale Frequency-Phase Matching for High-Yield Nonlinear Photonics
