2H-NbSe(2) is a canonical Charge-Density-Wave (CDW) layered material the structural details of which remained elusive. We report the detailed structure of 2H-NbSe(2) below the CDW transition using a (3 + 2)-dimensional crystallographic approach on single crystal X-ray diffraction data collected
We report ultra-smooth LiNbO(3) microdisk resonators fabricated by selective ion implantation, chemical etching, and thermal treatment. The undercut microdisk structure is produced by chemically etching the buried lattice damage layer formed by selective ion implantation. By thermal treatment, surface tension
Long-distance quantum communication networks require appropriate interfaces between matter qubit-based nodes and low-loss photonic quantum channels. We implement a downconversion quantum interface, where the single photons emitted from a semiconductor quantum dot at 910 nm are downconverted to 1560 nm
We propose and fabricate a LiNbO₃-based nonlinear photonic crystal with locally ordered ferroelectric domains. The nonlinearity modulation provides sets of uniformly distributed reciprocal lattice vectors, ensuring broadband high frequency conversion efficiency. Frequency tripling via cascading is demonstrated in the range
The catalytic dehydration of fructose to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) in DMSO was performed over Nb2O5 derived from calcination of niobic acid at various temperatures (300-700 °C). The catalysts were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, N2 physical adsorption, temperature-programed desorption of NH3
