Megabar Shocks on a Benchtop

Yun Kai, Min Kim, Senpeng Lin +9

Techniques to generate megabar (100 GPa) pressure are critical for the study of materials under extreme conditions. However, kJ-class lasers are typically needed to generate such e…

Nanophotonic control of spatial information in scintillation detectors

Joshua Chen, Simo Pajovic, Seou Choi +9

X-rays enable non-invasive imaging across medicine, security, materials science, and beyond, yet modern systems remain constrained by the need to resolve finer structures at lower…

Nanophotonic thermal management in X-ray tubes

Simo Pajovic, Charles Roques-Carmes, Seou Choi +5

In X-ray tubes, more than 99% of the kilowatts of power supplied to generate X-rays via bremsstrahlung are lost in the form of heat generation in the anode. Therefore, thermal mana…

Biasing the quantum vacuum to control macroscopic probability distributions

Charles Roques-Carmes, Yannick Salamin, Jamison Sloan +7

One of the most important insights of quantum field theory is that electromagnetic fields must fluctuate. Even in the vacuum state, the electric and magnetic fields have a nonzero…
