Nonlinear polariton parametric emission in an atomically thin semiconductor based microcavity by Zhao, Jiaxin, Fieramosca, Antonio, Bao, Ruiqi, Du, Wei, Dini, Kevin, Su, Rui, Feng, Jiangang, Luo, Yuan, Sanvitto, Daniele, Liew, Timothy Chi Hin, Xiong, Qihua

“…Recently, two-dimensional transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have attracted great attention in strong light–matter interactions due to robust excitonic transitions and unique spin-valley degrees of freedom. However, further progress is hindered by the lack of realizations of strong nonlinear effects in TMD polaritons. …”

Electronic and transport properties of TMDC planar superlattices: effective Hamiltonian approach by Hashemi, R., Shojaei, S., Liu, Zheng

“…Within governed effective Hamiltonian we derived adopted transfer matrix formalism to obtain dispersion relation and electronic band structure with wave functions, transmission probability and Fano spectrum. Surprisingly, spin orbit coupling has considerable opposite effects on valence bands shift in TMDC-PSL that is blue and red for k and k’ valleys, respectively. …”

Finding meaning behind immortality of Anne Rice’s vampires. by Nurhayati Zakaria.

“…Immortality plays a central role in the continuous inquiry into the vampires’ nature and existence throughout the span of many centuries. These novels follow the psychological and emotional experiences of vampiric immortality, firstly, via two first-person accounts of two separate vampires, Louis and Lestat, and later trace Rice’s interpretation of vampiric urban legend through the stories of various vampires of different walks of life. …”

Futurism: performance and performativity of a movement by Scarso, Jacek Ludwig

“…Performance interventions span across the history of this movement (Goldberg, 2011): from the notorious 'serate' instigated by Marinetti, in which the audience would be purposefully scandalised, provoked and offended, to the futurist music concerts that provided an ancestral root for the aesthetics of synthesised sound in contemporary music (Rodney, 1976), not to mention the Russian counterpart of this movement, which embraced, on stage, such wide a field as to encompass theatre, opera, dance, music and scenic design. …”
