Erbium-Implanted WS 2 Flakes with Room-Temperature Photon Emission at Telecom Wavelengths
Optically addressable spin impurities in crystals along with device engineering provide an attractive route to realizing quantum technologies in the solid state, but reconciling disparate emitter and host material constraints for a given target application is often challenging. Rare-earth ions in two-dimensional (2D) materials could mitigate this problem given the atomic-like transitions of the emitters and the versatile nature of van der Waals systems. Here we combine ion implantation, confocal microscopy, and ab initio calculations to examine the photon emission of Er-doped WS 2 flakes. Optical spectroscopy reveals narrow, long-lived photoluminescence lines in the telecom band, which we activate after low-temperature thermal annealing. Spectroscopic and polarization-selective measurements show a uniform response across the ensemble, while the fluorescence brightness remains mostly unchanged with temperature, suggesting nonradiative relaxation channels are inefficient. Our results create opportunities for novel solid state devices coupling 2D-hosted, telecom-band emitters to photonic heterostructures separately optimized for photon manipulation.

Room-Temperature Ferroelectric LiNb 6 Ba 5 Ti 4 O 30 Spinel Phase in a Nanocomposite Thin Film Form for Nonlinear Photonics
Tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB) materials are one of the most promising classes of materials for ferroelectric and nonlinear optical devices, owing to their very unique noncentrosymmetric crystal structure. In this work, a new TTB phase of LiNb 6 Ba 5 Ti 4 O 30 (LNBTO) has been discovered and studied. A small amount of a secondary phase, LiTiO 2 (LTO), has been incorporated as nanopillars that are vertically embedded in the LNBTO matrix. The new multifunctional nanocomposite thin film presents exotic highly anisotropic microstructure and properties, e.g., strong ferroelectricity, high optical transparency, anisotropic dielectric function, and strong optical nonlinearity evidenced by the second harmonic generation results. An optical waveguide structure based on the stacks of α-Si on SiO 2 /LNBTO–LTO has been fabricated, exhibiting low optical dispersion with an optimized evanescent field staying in the LNBTO–LTO active layer. Lastly, this work highlights the combination of new TTB material designs and vertically aligned nanocomposite structures for further enhanced anisotropic and nonlinear properties.

High-Yield Room-Temperature Aryl 211 At Radiolabeling via Redox-Activated Column-Shipped 211 At
Efficient late-stage formation of aryl– 211 At bonds is relevant to expanding the scope of targeted α-therapy radiopharmaceuticals. In this work, a catalyst-enabled astatodeboronation approach is evaluated using wet chemically regenerated 211 At recovered from shipped 3-octanone-impregnated columns. A series of aryl boronic esters bearing electron-donating and electron-withdrawing substituents were radiolabeled under mild conditions, with reaction parameters examined through time-dependent studies. Radiochemical conversions ranging from 68–97% were observed across the substrate set. Density functional theory calculations were employed as a qualitative framework to contextualize relative B–C and At–C bonding descriptors. Overall, this study demonstrates that wet chemically regenerated 211 At can be applied to the late-stage labeling of aryl boronic esters under mild conditions and provides guidance for future exploration of 211 At radiolabeling strategies.
