Population-resolved measurement of an avoided crossing of light-dressed states

November 17, 2025
Author(s)
Noah Schlossberger, Nikunjkumar Prajapati, Eric Norrgard, Stephen Eckel, Christopher Holloway
A two-level system coupled by a coherent field is a ubiquitous model in atomic and molecular physics. While the resulting avoided crossing of light-dressed states has been extensively probed spectroscopically, such measurements typically reveal only the

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

A fault-tolerant neutral-atom architecture for universal quantum computation

November 10, 2025
Author(s)
Dolev Bluvstein, Alexandra Geim, Sophie Li, Simon Evered, J. Pablo Bonilla Ataides, Gefen Baranes, Andi Gu, Tom Manovitz, Muqing Xu, Marcin Kalinowski, Shayan Majidy, Christian Kokail, Nishad Maskara, Elias C Trapp, Luke Stewart, Simon Hollerith, Hengyun Zhou, Michael Gullans, Susanne Yelin, Markus Greiner, Vladan Vuletic, Madelyn Cain, Mikhail Lukin
Quantum error correction (QEC) is believed to be essential for the realization of large-scale quantum computers. However, due to the complexity of operating on the encoded 'logical' qubits, understanding the physical principles for building fault-tolerant

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

Harmonization Model & Implementation of Interactions among IoT Devices

November 6, 2025
Author(s)
Yuyin Song, Thomas Roth, Peter Waher, Helbert da Rocha, Riccardo Brama, Hiroaki Nishi, Antonio Espirito-Santo
The Internet of Things (IoT) is highly heterogeneous regarding smart sensors/devices, connectivity, communication protocols, and data formats. The major challenges of IoT ecosystems are fragmentation (or disintegration) and cross-domain interoperability

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

November 6, 2025
Author(s)
Mahmoud Jalali Mehrabad, Lida Xu, Gregory Moille, Christopher Flower, Supratik Sarkar, Apurva Padhye, Shao-Chien Ou, Daniel Suarez-Ferero, Mahdi Ghafariasl, Yanne K. Chembo, Kartik Srinivasan, Mohammad Hafezi
Integrated nonlinear photonics struggles to deliver wafer-scale functional device yields: Nanometer-level fabrication variations compromise the strict frequency-phase matching mandated by energy- and momentum-conserving nonlinear processes. We introduce

The IEEE 1451 Playground: A Web-Based Tool for Standard Education

November 6, 2025
Author(s)
Yuyin Song, Helbert da Rocha, Antonio Espirito-Santo, Riccardo Brama
The technical standards are employed in everyday tasks, such as connection to the internet or with nearby devices. The process to learn a new technical standard is difficult and needs time, as the standards have complex documentation that needs to be

The structure and morphology of single-component oligomeric RNA delivery vectors derived from amphiphilic Charge-Altering Releasable Transporters

November 6, 2025
Author(s)
Paul Hurst, Yuan Jia, Summer Ramsay-Burrough, Rebecca McClellan, Joshua Arens, Samuel Khasnavis, Trevor del Castillo, Mahmoud AbdElwakil, Michael Lueckheide, Vivek Prabhu, Robert Waymouth
Recent advances in nucleic acid delivery have been inspired by efforts to mimic the function of natural viruses through the development of self-assemblies capable of transporting oligonucleotides across the cell and endosomal membranes. Lipid nanoparticles

AI-Powered ParaView for NIST: Enabling Accessible Scientific Visualization

November 3, 2025
Author(s)
Simon Su, William Sherman, Judith Terrill
This position paper outlines the research agenda for National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)'s AI-Powered ParaView effort and how the research directly addresses and supports multiple action items within the America's AI Action Plan. How this

Would Human-Robot Interaction Conferences Benefit From More Formal Reporting?

November 3, 2025
Author(s)
Patrick Holthaus, Alessandra Rossi, Snehesh Shrestha, Wing-Yue Louie, aysegul ucar, Daniel Hernandez Garcia, Frank Forster, Antonio Andriella, Shelly Bagchi
In an interdisciplinary and evolving research field like human-robot interaction, clear and precise results reporting is essential for study comparability and replicability. To address the lack of a standard for such reporting and, at the same time

Smart City Standardization: A Global Perspective

November 1, 2025
Author(s)
William Dunaway, Cheyney O'Fallon
The Global Community Technology Challenge (GCTC) is the smart cities program of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in the U.S. Department of Commerce. Since its formation in 2014, the GCTC has built an international partnership of

Unraveling spin entanglement using quantum gates with scanning tunneling microscopy-driven electron spin resonance

October 31, 2025
Author(s)
Eric Switzer, Jose Reina Galvez, Geza Giedke, Talat Rahman, Christoph Wolf, Deung-Jang Choi, Nicolas Lorente
Quantum entanglement is a fundamental resource for quantum information processing, and its controlled generation and detection remain key challenges in scalable quantum architectures. Here, we demonstrate the deterministic generation of entangled spin
