We propose a protocol for the generation of NOON states of resonator modes. The physical model is composed of two Kerr-nonlinear resonators and a four-level qudit. Using the off-resonant couplings between the resonators and the qudit, qudit-level-dependent frequency shifts on the two resonators are induced. The frequency shifts allow us to drive different resonators to the N-photon state when the qudit is in different intermediate levels. Consequently, the generation of NOON states with arbitrary photon number N can be completed in only three steps, i.e., driving the qudit to a superposition state of the two intermediate levels, driving one of the resonators to its N-photon state, and driving the qudit back to its ground level. Numerical simulations show that, in the regime of strong Kerr nonlinearity and coupling strengths, the protocol can produce the NOON state with high fidelity in the cases of different photon numbers. In addition, it is possible for the protocol to produce acceptable fidelity in the presence of systematic errors and decoherence factors. Therefore, the protocol may provide some useful perspectives for effective generation of photonic NOON states.

In this study we report on the efficiency of a furane-indole-chromenone-based organic derivative () as a photocatalyst in the α-arylation of enol acetate upon LED irradiation at 405 nm, and as a photoinitiator/photocatalyst in the free radical polymerization of an acrylate group in the presence of -(4--butylphenyl)iodonium hexafluorophosphate (Iod) as an additive, or in the presence of both Iod and ethyl-4-(dimethyl amino) benzoate (EDB) under LED irradiation at 365 nm. The photochemical properties of this new light-sensitive compound are described, and the wide redox window (3.27 eV) and the high excited-state potentials / (+2.

Introduction: Initial evidence suggests that engaging with accepting communities on social media such as Instagram may inform sexual minority youths' sense of stigma and well-being. However, as existing research has predominately drawn upon cross-sectional or qualitative designs, it is currently unclear whether the positive experiences identified in previous research accumulate, endure, or evolve over time. We also know relatively little about whether engagement with accepting online communities is primarily a compensatory or enhancing behavior.

Article Synopsis
- Radiative cooling is an innovative way to lower energy use for cooling spaces, with eco-friendly aqueous paints providing a promising solution.
- Current cooling paints struggle with environmental concerns due to harmful solvents and require thick layers for effectiveness, leading to high costs.
- The new YO-ZnO paints utilize a double-layer design, achieving impressive reflectance and emissivity while being thinner, more sustainable, and effective in real-world testing in humid climates.
