Nonlinear Boost of Optical Angular Momentum Selectivity by Hybrid Nanolaser Circuits.

Selective control of light is essential for optical science and technology, with numerous applications. However, optical selectivity in the angular momentum of light has been quite limited, remaining constant by increasing the incident light power on previous passive optical devices. Here, we demonstrate a nonlinear boost of optical selectivity in both the spin and orbital angular momentum of light through near-field selective excitation of single-mode nanolasers.

Reconfigurable Artificial Synapse Based on Ambipolar Floating Gate Memory.

Artificial synapse networks capable of massively parallel computing and mimicking biological neural networks can potentially improve the processing efficiency of existing information technologies. Semiconductor devices functioning as excitatory and inhibitory synapses are crucial for developing intelligence systems, such as traffic control systems. However, achieving reconfigurability between two working modes (inhibitory and excitatory) and bilingual synaptic behavior in a single transistor remains challenging.

Exciton-phonon coupling in two-dimensional layered (BA)PbI perovskite microplates.

Two-dimensional layered (BA)PbI (BA = CHNH) perovskites are emerging as a new class of layered materials and show great potential in optoelectronic applications. Elucidating how exciton-phonon interaction affects the excitonic emission is of great importance for a better knowledge of their optoelectronic properties. In this letter, we synthesized high-quality (BA)PbI microplates solution methods, and dual-excitonic emission peaks (surface-emission and interior-emission) were detected from the as-grown samples at low temperatures.
