  • Effect of Quantum Hall Edge Strips on Valley Splitting in Silicon Quantum Wells

    Author(s): Brian Paquelet Wuetz, Merritt P. Losert, Alberto Tosato, Mario Lodari, Peter L. Bavdaz, Lucas Stehouwer, Payam Amin, James S. Clarke, Susan N. Coppersmith, Amir Sammak, Menno Veldhorst, Mark Friesen, and Giordano Scappucci Valley splitting in low-disorder silicon quantum wells in the quantum Hall regime increases with electric field at the edge of the device at a rate consistent with predictions.

  • Modeling the Microstructure and Stress in Dense Suspensions under Inhomogeneous Flow

    Author(s): J. J. J. Gillissen and C. Ness Incorporating shear rate fluctuations into a tensorial model captures the microstructural features of dense suspensions. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 125, 184503] Published Tue Oct 27, 2020

  • Semiconductor Quantum Plasmonics

    Author(s): Angela Vasanelli, Simon Huppert, Andrew Haky, Thibault Laurent, Yanko Todorov, and Carlo Sirtori A full quantum treatment of plasmons confined in a semiconductor layer, going beyond the commonly employed electromagnetic models, indicates the existence of higher order longitudinal modes that are subsequently experimentally observed. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 125, 187401] Published Tue Oct 27, 2020

  • Automatic Fine-Tuning in the Two-Flavor Schwinger Model

    Author(s): Howard Georgi A theoretical model illustrates that phenomena that might appear to be the result of ad hoc fine tuning at low energies may have a natural explanation in terms of physical principles that apply only at higher energy scales. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 125, 181601] Published Mon Oct 26, 2020

  • Imaging Charge Localization in a Conjugated Oligophenylene

    Author(s): Laerte L. Patera, Fabian Queck, and Jascha Repp A new technique determines both the charge distribution and the structural distortions that result from the addition of a single charge to a molecule. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 125, 176803] Published Fri Oct 23, 2020

  • Optimal Control of Active Nematics

    Author(s): Michael M. Norton, Piyush Grover, Michael F. Hagan, and Seth Fraden Optimal control theory finds spatiotemporal inputs that produce desired behaviors in active nematics. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 125, 178005] Published Fri Oct 23, 2020

  • Shear-Induced Gelation of Self-Yielding Active Networks

    Author(s): David A. Gagnon, Claudia Dessi, John P. Berezney, Remi Boros, Daniel T.-N. Chen, Zvonimir Dogic, and Daniel L. Blair Experiments show how to tune the viscosity of “active” filaments found in cells, something that could help in the design of biomimetic materials. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 125, 178003] Published Thu Oct 22, 2020
