Relaxation oscillations in a bipolarised Nd : YAG laser with a Fabry – Perot cavity

Based on the model of a bipolarised laser, which takes into account real orientations of absorbing and emitting dipoles of active centres in the unit cell of an Nd : YAG single crystal, we have shown that the appearance of low-frequency relaxation oscillations requires the participation of both competing pump channels through linearly and circularly polarised dipole transitions.

Cryogenic platform to investigate strong microwave cavity-spin coupling in correlated magnetic materials

We present a comprehensive exploration of loop-gap resonators for electron spin resonance (ESR) studies, enabling investigations into the hybridization of solid-state magnetic materials with microwave polariton modes. The experimental setup, implemented in a Physical Property Measurement System by Quantum Design, allows for measurements of ESR spectra at temperatures as low as 2 Kelvin. The versatility of continuous wave ESR spectroscopy is demonstrated through experiments on CuSO 4 •5H 2 O and MgCr 2 O 4 , showcasing the g-tensor and magnetic susceptibilities of these materials. The study delves into the challenges of fitting spectra under strong hybridization conditions and underscores the significance of proper calibration and stabilization. The detailed guide provided serves as a valuable resource for laboratories interested in exploring hybrid quantum systems through microwave resonators.

Results of Recent and Historical Comparisons Between Absolute Cavity Pyrgeometer (ACP), InfraRed Integrating Sphere (IRIS)

Results of seven comparisons between ACPs and IRISs. Difference between the longwave irradiance measured by the ACPs and IRISs versus the irradiance measured by the WISG. The longwave irradiance measured by the ACPs, IRISs, and AERI versus the irradiance measured by the WISG. Recommendations to establish the world reference for measuring the atmospheric longwave irradiance with traceability to the International System of Units (SI).

Using an Absolute Cavity Pyrgeometer to Validate the Calibration of a Transfer Standard Pyrgeometer Outdoors, Independent from the Reference Value of the Atmospheric Longwave Irradiance

A unique method of pyrgeometer calibration has been developed to improve the measurement uncertainty [1]. The results of this method yielded irradiance values within ±3 W/m2 of those traceable to the World InfraRed Standard Group (WISG). The ACPs and pyrgeometer model PIR were deployed outdoors, and the irradiance measured by the PIR was compared against the irradiance measured by ACP95F3. Based on the results it is possible to achieve an uncertainty of ± 3.51 W/m2. These results suggest that the PIR calibration method might be useful in addressing the international need for a secondary standard pyrgeometer traceable to SI.

Optically Excited Lasing in a Cavity‐Based, High‐Current‐Density Quantum Dot Electroluminescent Device

Abstract Laser diodes based on solution‐processable materials can benefit numerous technologies including integrated electronics and photonics, telecommunications, and medical diagnostics. An attractive system for implementing these devices is colloidal semiconductor quantum dots (QDs). The progress towards a QD laser diode has been hampered by rapid nonradiative Auger decay of optical‐gain‐active multicarrier states, fast device degradation at high current densities required for laser action, and unfavorable competition between optical gain and optical losses in a multicomponent device stack. Here we resolve some of these challenges and demonstrate optically excited lasing from fully functional high‐current density electroluminescent (EL) devices with an integrated optical resonator. This advance has become possible due to excellent optical gain properties of continuously graded QDs and a refined device architecture, which allows for highly efficient light amplification in a thin, EL‐active QD layer.

Crystal Structures of Diaryl Hydrazone and Sulfone Stabilizers in Complex with an Amyloidogenic Light Chain Reveal an Alternate Ligand‐Binding Cavity

Abstract Stabilization of amyloidogenic immunoglobulin light chains (LCs) by binding of small molecule “kinetic stabilizers” is under development as a novel treatment for light chain amyloidosis. From a high‐throughput screen, we previously identified 16 full‐length (FL) LC stabilizers from five distinct chemotypes. We then obtained structural biological information on two classes of hits, coumarins and hydantoins, revealing that both chemotypes bind to a pocket at the V L −V L interface of the FL LC dimer. Here, we report crystal structures of three screening hits from two other chemotypes, diaryl hydrazones and sulfones, in complex with an amyloidogenic FL LC. While two of these hits bind to the previously identified pocket, one diaryl hydrazone binds to a different pocket bisected by the C 2 symmetry axis of the dimer. These data further expand on the FL LC stabilizer‐binding surface that could be used in design of more potent FL LC aggregation inhibitors.
