AI Article Synopsis
- This study investigates how trapped ions can be used to explore unusual phases in a modified Dicke model, focusing on dissipative spins linked to phonon modes.
- The researchers discovered a complex dynamic phase diagram showcasing various behaviors like superradiance, phase coexistence, and phonon-lasing.
- A key benefit of using trapped ions is their ability to be studied in real-time through fluorescence; the findings suggest the use of a minimal model and propose an experimental setup using Ca+ ions in a linear Paul trap.
Article Abstract
We explore trapped ions as a setting to investigate nonequilibrium phases in a generalized Dicke model of dissipative spins coupled to phonon modes. We find a rich dynamical phase diagram including superradiantlike regimes, dynamical phase coexistence, and phonon-lasing behavior. A particular advantage of trapped ions is that these phases and transitions among them can be probed in situ through fluorescence. We demonstrate that the main physical insights are captured by a minimal model and consider an experimental realization with Ca+ ions trapped in a linear Paul trap with a dressing scheme to create effective two-level systems with a tunable dissipation rate.

Electric quadrupole traps are a leading technology for suspending charged objects ranging in size from single protons to atomic and molecular ions, and even to nano- and micron-sized bodies. If the levitated objects' charge distribution contains multipoles, the time-dependent trapping fields can significantly impact its rotational motion. Here, we experimentally observe the transition from librational motion to a regime where a microparticle rotates in sync with the trap drive.

Quantum computers are now on the brink of outperforming their classical counterparts. One way to demonstrate the advantage of quantum computation is through quantum random sampling performed on quantum computing devices. However, existing tools for verifying that a quantum device indeed performed the classically intractable sampling task are either impractical or not scalable to the quantum advantage regime.

Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) promote neovascularization during the acute phase after ocular chemical injury, while the local inflammatory acidic environment delays post-injury repair. Currently, the mechanism of NETs promoting neovascularization has not been fully elucidated, and there is a lack of therapeutic strategies to effectively improve the local microenvironment for corneal repair. In this study, we validated the NETs-M2-angiogenic pathway after injury.

Flavan-3-ol oligomers (FLOs), including proanthocyanidins (PAs) and theasinensins (TSs), contribute greatly to the flavor and bioactivity of the tea beverage. Ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography coupled with high-resolution mass spectrometry has been widely used in profiling a wide range of compounds in tea. However, the detection and identification of FLOs with low concentration and high structural diversity remain meaningful yet challenging work.

The stability of the precursor is essential for producing high-quality perovskite films with minimal non-radiative recombination. In this study, methionine sulfoxide (MTSO), which features multiple electron-donation sites, is strategically chosen as a precursor stabilizer and crystal growth mediator for inverted perovskite solar cells (PSCs). MTSO stabilizes the precursor by inhibiting the oxidation of iodide ions and passivates charged traps through coordination and hydrogen bonding interactions.
