We report strongly magnetic field dependent transport in crystalline strontium titanate at the interface with an ion beam treated nanolayer. Microscopy shows that this interface is atomically sharp. The results obtained suggest a chemical potential driven transfer of high mobility electrons through the interface into the crystal. This phenomenon provides a strategy for device fabrication without disorder in the conduction channel. We show, for nonmagnetic metals, magnetoresistance and plateau-like Hall magneto-dependence, possibly caused by electron cyclotron effects in a strongly correlated quasi-two-dimensional Fermi gas.

Chronic pain is a pervasive and debilitating condition with increasing implications for public health, affecting millions of individuals worldwide. Despite its high prevalence, the underlying neural mechanisms and pathophysiology remain only partly understood. Since its introduction 35 years ago, brain diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has emerged as a powerful tool to investigate changes in white matter microstructure and connectivity associated with chronic pain.

The abrupt drop of resistance to zero at a critical temperature is a key signature of the current paradigm of the metal-superconductor transition. However, the emergence of an intermediate bosonic insulating state characterized by a resistance peak preceding the onset of the superconducting transition has challenged this traditional understanding. Notably, this phenomenon has been predominantly observed in disordered or chemically doped low-dimensional systems, raising intriguing questions about the generality of the effect and its underlying fundamental physics.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a powerful diagnostic tool that uses strong magnetic fields and radio waves to create detailed images of the body's internal structures. This article examines the challenges associated with MRI, particularly focusing on patient anxiety and claustrophobic reactions that can lead to aborted scans. It discusses the use of anxiolytics, especially benzodiazepines, to manage these issues, while highlighting the potential risks of respiratory depression and other adverse outcomes in select patient populations.

Nonlinear optics, a critical branch of modern optics, presents unique potential in the study of two-dimensional (2D) magnetic materials. These materials, characterized by their ultra-thin geometry, long-range magnetic order, and diverse electronic properties, serve as an exceptional platform for exploring nonlinear optical effects. Under strong light fields, 2D magnetic materials exhibit significant nonlinear optical responses, enabling advancements in novel optoelectronic devices.

Using the effective mass approximation and the finite difference method, we examined the linear, non-linear, and total optical absorption coefficients (OAC), as well as the relative refractive index coefficients (RIC) variations for an off-center shallow donor impurity in a 2D-curved electronic nanostructure subjected to external electric and magnetic fields. Our results reveal that the peak positions of the OAC and RIC are susceptible to the geometrical angles, the impurity position, and the strength of the applied electric and magnetic fields. In particular, the positions of the OAC and RIC peaks can be shifted towards blue or red by adjusting the geometric angle.
