Most engineered systems are designed with a passive and fixed design capacity and,
therefore, may become unreliable in the presence of adverse events. Currently, most …

Metal-halide perovskites are promising lasing materials for the realization of monolithically
integrated laser sources, the key components of silicon photonic integrated circuits (PICs) …

Microplastics are a growing environmental and toxicological concern, having been found in
the remotest locations of the earth and within multiple organs of the human body. However …

High power broad area diode lasers provide the optical energy for all high performance
solid state and fiber laser systems. The maximum achievable power density from such …

Traditional approaches to control the microstructure of materials, such as annealing, require
high temperature treatment for long periods of time. In this study, we present a room …
