Nano-engineering the evolution of skyrmion crystal in synthetic antiferromagnets by Ma, Mangyuan, Huang, Ke, Li, Yong, Li, Sihua, Feng, Qiyuan, Ang, Calvin Ching Ian, Jin, Tianli, Lu, Yalin, Lu, Qingyou, Lew, Wen Siang, Ma, Fusheng, Wang, Renshaw Xiao

“…Most significantly, non-volatile multiple states are realized at zero magnetic field via controlling the proportion of the annihilated skyrmions in the skyrmion crystal. Our results demonstrate the tunability and flexibility of the artificial skyrmion platform, providing a promising route to achieve skyrmion-based multistate devices, such as neuromorphic spintronic devices.…”

Solution-processed lead halide perovskite single crystal scintillators by Xie, Aozhen

“…We believe our conclusions in this thesis could shed light on similar scintillator design investigations. At last, based on my experimental skills and knowledge learnt from other perovskite scintillator references, I ended up my thesis with the comparison of 2D and 3D perovskite single crystal scintillators. 3D perovskite scintillators (especially thick crystal samples) are easy to obtain due to early synthesis investigations. …”
