--- _id: '6566' abstract: - lang: eng text: Methodologies that involve the use of nanoparticles as “artificial atoms” to rationally build materials in a bottom-up fashion are particularly well-suited to control the matter at the nanoscale. Colloidal synthetic routes allow for an exquisite control over such “artificial atoms” in terms of size, shape, and crystal phase as well as core and surface compositions. We present here a bottom-up approach to produce Pb–Ag–K–S–Te nanocomposites, which is a highly promising system for thermoelectric energy conversion. First, we developed a high-yield and scalable colloidal synthesis route to uniform lead sulfide (PbS) nanorods, whose tips are made of silver sulfide (Ag2S). We then took advantage of the large surface-to-volume ratio to introduce a p-type dopant (K) by replacing native organic ligands with K2Te. Upon thermal consolidation, K2Te-surface modified PbS–Ag2S nanorods yield p-type doped nanocomposites with PbTe and PbS as major phases and Ag2S and Ag2Te as embedded nanoinclusions. Thermoelectric characterization of such consolidated nanosolids showed a high thermoelectric figure-of-merit of 1 at 620 K. article_processing_charge: Yes (in subscription journal) article_type: original author: - first_name: Maria full_name: Ibáñez, Maria id: 43C61214-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Ibáñez orcid: 0000-0001-5013-2843 - first_name: Aziz full_name: Genç, Aziz last_name: Genç - first_name: Roger full_name: Hasler, Roger last_name: Hasler - first_name: Yu full_name: Liu, Yu id: 2A70014E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Liu orcid: 0000-0001-7313-6740 - first_name: Oleksandr full_name: Dobrozhan, Oleksandr last_name: Dobrozhan - first_name: Olga full_name: Nazarenko, Olga last_name: Nazarenko - first_name: María de la full_name: Mata, María de la last_name: Mata - first_name: Jordi full_name: Arbiol, Jordi last_name: Arbiol - first_name: Andreu full_name: Cabot, Andreu last_name: Cabot - first_name: Maksym V. full_name: Kovalenko, Maksym V. last_name: Kovalenko citation: ama: Ibáñez M, Genç A, Hasler R, et al.

Continuous-variable entangled fields—known as Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen (EPR) states—are spatially separated two-mode squeezed states that can be used for quantum teleportation and quantum communication2. In the optical domain, EPR states are typically generated using nondegenerate optical amplifiers3, and at microwave frequencies Josephson circuits can serve as a nonlinear medium4,5,6. An outstanding goal is to deterministically generate and distribute entangled states with a mechanical oscillator, which requires a carefully arranged balance between excitation, cooling and dissipation in an ultralow noise environment. Here we observe stationary emission of path-entangled microwave radiation from a parametrically driven 30-micrometre-long silicon nanostring oscillator, squeezing the joint field operators of two thermal modes by 3.40 decibels below the vacuum level. The motion of this micromechanical system correlates up to 50 photons per second per hertz, giving rise to a quantum discord that is robust with respect to microwave noise7. Such generalized quantum correlations of separable states are important for quantum-enhanced detection8 and provide direct evidence of the non-classical nature of the mechanical oscillator without directly measuring its state9. This noninvasive measurement scheme allows to infer information about otherwise inaccessible objects, with potential implications for sensing, open-system dynamics and fundamental tests of quantum gravity. In the future, similar on-chip devices could be used to entangle subsystems on very different energy scales, such as microwave and optical photons. acknowledged_ssus: - _id: NanoFab article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Shabir full_name: Barzanjeh, Shabir id: 2D25E1F6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Barzanjeh orcid: 0000-0003-0415-1423 - first_name: Elena full_name: Redchenko, Elena id: 2C21D6E8-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Redchenko - first_name: Matilda full_name: Peruzzo, Matilda id: 3F920B30-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Peruzzo orcid: 0000-0002-3415-4628 - first_name: Matthias full_name: Wulf, Matthias id: 45598606-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Wulf orcid: 0000-0001-6613-1378 - first_name: Dylan full_name: Lewis, Dylan last_name: Lewis - first_name: Georg M full_name: Arnold, Georg M id: 3770C838-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Arnold orcid: 0000-0003-1397-7876 - first_name: Johannes M full_name: Fink, Johannes M id: 4B591CBA-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Fink orcid: 0000-0001-8112-028X citation: ama: Barzanjeh S, Redchenko E, Peruzzo M, et al.

Many papers have studied forward-backward splitting methods for finding zeros of the sum of two monotone operators in Hilbert spaces. Most of the proposed splitting methods in the literature have been proposed for the sum of maximal monotone and inverse-strongly monotone operators in Hilbert spaces. In this paper, we consider splitting methods for finding zeros of the sum of maximal monotone operators and Lipschitz continuous monotone operators in Banach spaces. We obtain weak and strong convergence results for the zeros of the sum of maximal monotone and Lipschitz continuous monotone operators in Banach spaces.

Intuitively, for a fixed sample size it should be possible to increase the accuracy of the method by choosing a material sample which captures the statistical properties of the material particularly well; for example, for a composite material consisting of two constituents, one would select a representative volume in which the volume fraction of the constituents matches closely with their volume fraction in the overall material. Inspired by similar attempts in materials science, Le Bris, Legoll and Minvielle have designed a selection approach for representative volumes which performs remarkably well in numerical examples of linear materials with moderate contrast. In the present work, we provide a rigorous analysis of this selection approach for representative volumes in the context of stochastic homogenization of linear elliptic equations. In particular, we prove that the method essentially never performs worse than a random selection of the material sample and may perform much better if the selection criterion for the material samples is chosen suitably.' article_processing_charge: Yes (via OA deal) article_type: original author: - first_name: Julian L full_name: Fischer, Julian L id: 2C12A0B0-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Fischer orcid: 0000-0002-0479-558X citation: ama: Fischer JL.
