Models for a Multimode Bosonic Tunneling Junction
Decoherence plays an important role in quantum mechanics. In general, uncontrolled interaction of a quantum system with its environment will cause it to lose its quantum properties. Controlled decoherence or dissipation, on the other hand, can be used to engineer...
Kirigami/Origami-Based Reflectors for Beam Steering
Redirecting incident light towards a specific direction is a basic feat of engineering useful for large applications, such as redirecting sunlight onto solar panels or to provide greater illumination in a household, and for smaller applications, such as in optical...
Microfluidic Generation of Monodisperse and Photoreconfigurable Microspheres
The color produced by microscopically structured surfaces can be controlled by with the microfluidic preparation of monodisperse photoreconfigurable microspheres.
