We developed a novel structure by constructing a hexagonal cylindrical configuration within a dielectric host, which showcases a substantial band gap. This was achieved using two-dimensional photonic ...

This article explores the transformative role of AI—including Large Language Models (LLMs) like OpenAI GPT-4o and Capgemini, Reinforcement Learning (RL), Graph Neural Networks (GNNs), Diffusion Models ...

We present the formulation and applications of JAX-CPFEM, an open-source, GPU-accelerated, and differentiable 3-D crystal plasticity finite element method (CPFEM) software package. Leveraging the ...

A novel double-physical-fields lens that can simultaneously focus acoustic and electromagnetic waves into a given region is designed based on double-physical-fields ...

Photonic interconnects were an area of activity in May, with two companies raising funds for what could be much faster chip-to-chip and chiplet-to-chiplet links. Microstructured optics and ...

(Control Automation) ORNL, along with several federal agencies, has developed a new alloy for welding applications in hopes of improving weld strength. Dec. 31 ORNL licenses liquid-to-solid ...
