Recently acquired memories are reactivated in the hippocampus during sleep, an initial step for their consolidation. This process is concomitant with the hippocampal reactivation of previous memories, posing the problem of how to prevent interference between older and recent, initially labile, memory traces. Theoretical work has suggested that consolidating multiple memories while minimizing interference can be achieved by randomly interleaving their reactivation.

In the last decade, momentous progress in lead halide perovskite (LHP) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) is witnessed as their external quantum efficiency (η) has increased from 0.1 to more than 30%. Indeed, perovskite LEDs (PeLEDs), which can in principle reach 100% internal quantum efficiency as they are not limited by the spin-statistics, are reaching their full potential and approaching the theoretical limit in terms of device efficiency.

Manipulating Oxygen Vacancies in γ-GaO Nanocrystals: Correlation between Defect Location, Charge State, and Photophysical Properties.

J Phys Chem Lett

Anhui Provincial Key Laboratory of Magnetic Functional Materials and Devices, Institutes of Physical Science and Information Technology, Anhui University, Hefei 230601, China.

Recent advancements in colloidal synthesis have enabled precise control of extrinsic dopants in semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs), enriching our understanding of dopant-exciton interactions and opening new avenues for controlling NC properties. However, the manipulation of intrinsic defects in colloidal NCs remains challenging. Here, we demonstrate regulation of oxygen vacancy concentration and location in γ-GaO NCs, significantly altering their photoluminescent properties.

Manipulating chiral photon generation from plasmonic nanocavity-emitter hybrid systems: from weak to strong coupling.

Nanophotonics

State Key Laboratory of Precision Spectroscopy, School of Physics and Electronic Science, East China Normal University, Shanghai 200241, China.

By confining light into a deep subwavelength scale to match the characteristic dimension of quantum emitters, plasmonic nanocavities can effectively imprint the light emission with unique properties in terms of intensity, directionality, as well as polarization. In this vein, achiral quantum emitters can generate chiral photons through coupling with plasmonic nanocavities with either intrinsic or extrinsic chirality. As an important metric for the chiral-photon purity, the degree of circular polarization (DCP) is usually tuned by various scattered factors such as the nanocavity design, the emitter type, and the coupling strategy.

Valleytronics: Fundamental Challenges and Materials Beyond Transition Metal Chalcogenides.

Small

November 2024

Department of Materials Science and NanoEngineering, Rice University, Houston, Texas, 77005, USA.

Valleytronics, harnessing the valley degree of freedom in the momentum space, is a potential energy-efficient approach for information encoding, manipulation, and storage. Valley degree of freedom exists in a few conventional semiconductors, but recently the emerging 2D materials, such as monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), are considered more ideal for valleytronics, due to the additional protection from spin-valley locking enabled by their inversion symmetry breaking and large spin-orbit coupling. However, current limitations in the valley lifetime, operation temperature, and light-valley conversion efficiency in existing materials encumber the practical applications of valleytronics.
