Nonreciprocal light phenomena, including one-way wave propagation along an interface and one-way optical tunneling, are presented at terahertz frequencies in a system of magnetically controlled multi-layered structure. By varying the surface termination and the surrounding medium, it is found that the nonreciprocal bound or radiative Tamm plasmon polartions can be supported, manipulated, and well excited. Two different types of contributions to the non-reciprocity are analyzed, including the direct effect of magnetization-dependent surface terminating layer as well as violation of the periodicity in truncated multi-layered systems. Calculations on the asymmetrical dispersion relation of surface modes, field distribution, and transmission spectra through the structure are employed to confirm the theoretical results, which may potentially impact the design of tunable and compact optical isolators.

Coral reef ecosystem is a crucial component of marine ecosystems and is undergoing severe degradation due to the combined dural impact of environmental changes and human activities. Soundscape technology is an innovative coral reef restoration approach that attracts fish to degraded reefs. Inspired by such technique, a five-dimensional mathematical dynamical model incorporating the asymmetric dispersal of parrotfish is formulated to characterize the dynamic interaction among macroalgae, coral, algal turf, and parrotfish in coral reef ecosystem.

Purpose: To improve the current method for MRI turbulence quantification which is the intravoxel phase dispersion (IVPD) method. Turbulence is commonly characterized by the Reynolds stress tensor (RST) which describes the velocity covariance matrix. A major source for systematic errors in MRI is the sequence's sensitivity to the variance of the derivatives of velocity, such as the acceleration variance, which can lead to a substantial measurement bias.

A signal-processing algorithm for the detailed determination of delamination in multilayer structures is proposed in this work. The algorithm is based on calculating the phase velocity of the Lamb wave A mode and estimating this velocity dispersion. Both simulation and experimental studies were conducted to validate the proposed technique.

Designing advanced materials that effectively mitigate the poor cycle life of battery-type electrodes with high specific capacities is crucial for next-generation energy storage systems. Herein, graphene oxide-ceria (GO-CeO) nanocomposite synthesized via a facile wet chemical route is explored as cathode for high-performance supercapacitors. The morphological analysis suggests fine ceria (CeO) nanoparticles dispersed over ultrathin graphene oxide (GO) sheets while structural studies reveal face-centered cubic phase of CeO in the nanocomposite.

Pt/CeO single-atom catalysts are attractive materials for CO oxidation but normally show poor activity below 150 °C mainly due to the unicity of the originally symmetric PtO structure. In this work, a highly active and stable Pt/CeO single-site catalyst with only 0.1 wt % Pt loading, achieving a satisfied complete conversion of CO at 150 °C, can be obtained through fabricating asymmetric PtO-oxygen vacancies (O) dual-active sites induced by well-dispersed NbO clusters.
