Cold atoms laboratory in a hollow core fiber by Leong, Wui Seng

“…I first demonstrate an inertia-sensitive Mach-Zehnder atom interferometer using two counter-propagating Raman beams. However, the short quantum spin coherence time of $\sim$\SI{100}{\micro\second} due to the differential AC stark shift from the trapping beam is a major obstacle to reaching high sensitivity of the optically trapped atom interferometer inside the HCF. …”

Functional properties of Yttrium Iron Garnett thin films on graphene-coated Gd3Ga5O12 for remote epitaxial transfer by Leontsev, S., Shah, P.J., Kum, H.S., McChesney, J.L., Rodolakis, F.M., van Veenendaal, M., Velez, M., Rao, R., Haskel, D., Kim, J., Reed, A.N., Page, M.R.

“…Both materials were characterized in terms of crystal structure, surface morphology, FMR and Gilbert damping, and Raman and XAS spectroscopy. It was found that YIG on graphene-coated GGG exhibits significantly higher microwave losses than standard YIG on GGG (FMR linewidth 30.9 vs 2.1 Oe at 10 GHz, and Gilbert damping coefficient 15.4 × 10-4 vs 3.4 × 10-4 respectively), which was attributed to increased concentration of Fe2+ cations in YIG/Graphene/GGG. …”

Integrative and comparative analysis of coiled-coil based marine snail egg cases : a model for biomimetic elastomers by Guerette, Paul A., Z. Tay, Gavin, Hoon, Shawn, Loke, Jun Jie, Hermawan, Arif F., Schmitt, Clemens N. Z., Harrington, Matthew J., Masic, Admir, Karunaratne, Angelo, Gupta, Himadri S., Tan, Koh Siang, Schwaighofer, Andreas, Nowak, Christoph, Miserez, Ali

“…The two species also displayed similarity in hierarchical fibril bundling and a sub-micron staggering of 100–105 nm within filaments, as shown by atomic force microscopy and small angle X-ray diffraction. In situ Raman micro spectroscopy indicated that P. cochlidium egg cases undergo a stress-induced coiled-coil to extended β-strand structural transformation that is very similar to that of B. canaliculatus. …”

Structural and magnetic interplay in multiferroic Ho₀.₅Nd₀.₅Fe₃(BO₃)₄ by Tripathy, A., Gautam, K., Dey, K., Sahu, S. R., Ahad, A., Upadhyay, A., Sagdeo, A., Francoual, S., Bereciartua, P. J., Gudim, I., Strempfer, J., Sathe, V. G., Shukla, D. K.

“…By utilizing temperature-dependent synchrotron x-ray powder diffraction, we report here the observation of structural phase transition, i.e., the lowering of crystal symmetry from R32 to P3121 below TN in Ho0.5Nd0.5Fe3(BO3)4, which is further confirmed by single-crystal x-ray diffraction measurements as well as substantiated by dielectric and Raman spectroscopic results. With the help of x-ray resonant magnetic scattering, we have studied the element-specific magnetic ordering behavior, and by combining all the results, we show that the spontaneous electric polarization below the antiferromagnetic ordering transition emerges through the p-d hybridization mechanism associated with the FeO6 octahedra. …”
