A strip-loaded horizontal slot waveguide is used for routing the emission of a microdisk laser. The active region of the laser contains InAs/InGaAs/GaAs quantum dots operating in CW mode under optical pumping. Although the quantum dots emit in a broad range, the laser emission is single mode with 𝜆=1290nmλ=1290nm. Atomic layer deposition is used for the fabrication of the TiO2/SiO2/TiO2TiO2/SiO2/TiO2 slot waveguide covering the 10-µm-diameter disk. The horizontal slot waveguide covers the microdisk and traps the emission in the fundamental TM mode of the three-stack layer. Once light is localized inside this planar waveguide, a loading strip creates an effective index difference, which is sufficient to confine the mode laterally and leads to the guiding of the lasing emission. An analytical model for the five-layer horizontal planar slot waveguide was developed in order to optimize the slot waveguide according to the operation wavelength of the microlaser and the different materials involved. Scanning near-field optical microscopy is used to observe the propagation of light within the waveguide and confirm the mode coupling into it and therefore the guiding along the loading strip.

The incompressible three-dimensional Euler equations develop very thin pancake-like regions of exponen tially increasing vorticity. The characteristic thickness of such regions decreases exponentially with time, while the other two dimensions do not change considerably, making the flow near each pancake strongly anisotropic. The pancakes emerge in increasing number with time, which may enhance the anisotropy ...

Clarity of knowledge and reasoning is necessary in many cases. Yet vagueness in scientific thinking related to surprise, curiosity, "ability to engage with not-knowing" (de Freitas) and abductive reasoning is also a crucially important source of scientific creativity which supplements combinatorial logic when dealing with the already known. Starting from studies by C. S. Peirce ...

Glushak A., Tararushkin E., Smirnov G., Colloids and Surfaces A: Physicochemical and Engineering Aspects 2027 Vol. 752 Article 141756
The molecular-scale behavior of water in heterogeneous clay–quartz systems is critical for understanding cementation processes in natural soils and compacted bentonite, which is crucial for oil recovery and nuclear waste disposal barriers construction. Here we investigate how heterogeneity of mixed Na-montmorillonite and α-quartz surfaces affect water structure and dynamics in nanopores of 2.5 to 60 Å ...

We consider the remote state restoring and perfect transfer of the zero-order coherence matrix (PTZ) in a spin system governed by the XXZ-Hamiltonian conserving the excitation number. The restoring tool is represented by several nonzero Larmor frequencies in the Hamiltonian. To simplify the analysis we use two approximating models including either step-wise or pulse-type time-dependence ...

We consider the state-restoring protocol based on the controlled interaction of a linear chain with environment through incoherent control by the specially adjusted step-wise time-dependent Lindblad operators. We show that the best restoring result (maximal scale factors in the restored state) corresponds to the symmetrical Lindblad equation. (0, 1)-excitation dynamics is considered numerically, and restoring ...

The distribution of entanglement is a crucial task for quantum communication towards realizing a globe-spanning quantum internet. Recently, a protocol for deterministic long-distance distribution of macroscopic entanglement over a network of ensembles of qubits was introduced (Pyrkov et al., 2025). It was shown that this protocol allows for the propagation of macroscopic amounts of entanglement ...

Distributing long-distance entanglement is a fundamental goal that is necessary for a variety of tasks such as quantum communication, distributed quantum computing, and quantum metrology. Currently quantum repeater schemes typically aim to distribute one ebit at a time, the equivalent of one Bell pair's worth of entanglement. Here, a scheme is presented to distribute a ...

We investigate the effect of weak interband impurity scattering on the intertype (IT) domain between type-I and type-II superconductivity in diffusive two-band superconductors. Our results show that the significant broadening of the IT domain with increasing band diffusivity ratio, previously established in the absence of interband scattering, persists under weak interband scattering. However, depending on ...
