Arrayed waveguide gratings in lithium tantalate integrated photonics

Tobias Kippenberg, Jianqi Hu, Chengli Wang, Shivaprasad Umesh Hulyal, Jiachen Cai

Arrayed waveguide gratings (AWGs) are widely used photonic components for splitting and combining different wavelengths of light. They play a key role in wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) systems by enabling efficient routing of multiple data channels ...

Risk-reward Trade-off During Carbon Starvation Generates Dichotomy in Motility Endurance Among Marine Bacteria

Martin Ackermann

Copiotrophic marine bacteria contribute to the control of carbon storage in the ocean by remineralizing organic matter. Motility presents copiotrophs with a risk-reward trade-off: it is highly beneficial in seeking out sparse nutrient hotspots, but energet ...

On the behavior of uniaxial static stress loaded micro-scale fused silica beams at room temperature

Yves Bellouard, Christos Edouardos Athanasiou, Saood Ibni Nazir

The question of whether static stress in fused silica relaxes at room temperature is still under debate. Here, we report experimental data investigating the behavior of fused silica at room temperature when subjected to static tensile stress up to 2 GPa st ...

Tuning the response of non-allowed Raman modes in GaAs nanowires

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Gözde Tütüncüoglu, Federico Matteini, Esther Alarcon Llado, Emanuele Uccelli, Francesca Amaduzzi

We report on the use of photonic resonances in Raman spectroscopy on single nanowires for the enhancement of forbidden modes and the study of the interaction of phonons with free-carriers. This is achieved by suspending nanowire over a trench and detecting ...

Plant functional types define magnitude of drought response in peatland CO2 exchange

Luca Bragazza, Bjorn Jozef Maria Robroek

Peatlands are important sinks for atmospheric carbon (C), yet the role of plant functional types (PFTs) for C sequestration under climatic perturbations is still unclear. A plant-removal experiment was used to study the importance of vascular PFTs for the ...
