CrystalJev: thinking fast and slow with atomistic foundation models for materials discovery
Atomistic foundation models triage millions of hypothetical materials but are used as slow simulators, their thresholded energies taken at face value.Phenomenon-first problem formulation with language models in metal-organic frameworks
Here we introduce a phenomenon-first framework for materials discovery in which an LLM receives separate descriptions of guest physics, host capabilities and operating context and proposes an…Nontrivial periodic solutions to the one-phase free boundary problem
We construct new classical global solutions of the one-phase Bernoulli free boundary problem in $\mathbb{R}^3$ whose positive phases are periodic perturbations of the product of the…Origin of the inhomogeneous linewidth in a solid state $^{229}$Th:CaF$_2$ nuclear clock
Narrow linewidth (high-Q) quantum discriminators are essential for realizing solid-state $^{229}$Th nuclear clocks, yet the observed transition linewidths remain at the tens-to-hundreds-of-kilohertz…Self-organized Layered Structures of Nitrogen-Vacancy Centers with Preferential Orientation in Heteroepitaxial Diamond Films
Here, we report the fabrication and characterization of single crystal diamond films on a two-inch wafer-scale containing three-dimensional layered structures of negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy…Beyond Pure Dephasing: Quantum Error Correction in Single Molecules Requires Multiple Spins
We propose multi-spin molecules as a viable architecture for fault-tolerant quantum computing.Electronic Density versus Geometry for Machine-Learned Molecular Absorption Spectra
Molecular optical absorption spectroscopy provides a direct probe of electronic structure and is widely used for molecular identification, interpretation of photophysical behaviour, and planning of…An Automated and Reproducible Workflow for Crack Identification and Damage Assessment of Fusion Materials
Post-exposure microscopy is central to qualification of fusion materials.Reinforcement Learning on the Discrete Composition Channel of a Crystal Generator: Validated Gains and Reward Hacking
Inverse materials design is a long-standing goal of computational materials discovery.Agentic Resource Allocation for Batch Multi-Objective Bayesian Optimization in Autonomous Materials Discovery
The discovery and development of advanced materials is a challenging process constrained by the high time and monetary costs of synthesis, processing, and characterization.Zero measure Cantor spectrum for aperiodic metric tiling graphs
We study a family of aperiodic metric graphs generated by one-dimensional tilings.Additive solid immersion lenses for enhanced collection efficiency of shallow NV centers by pulsed laser deposition and structurization of high-k amorphous oxides
The negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy ($\mathrm{NV}^-$) defect in diamond can be used for quantum information processing via the readout of the radiative decay of the excited state into the ground…Learning ab initio phase-field models
Simulating microstructure evolution requires quantum-mechanical accuracy and mesoscopic reach in length and time scales, a combination that no current method achieves.Thin-capping layer epitaxial quantum dots for near-field quantum photonics
Epitaxial quantum dots (QDs) are widely recognised as one of the best quantum light sources, given their good stability, brightness, quantum efficiency and coherence.The AI Theorist reveals excitonic structure in $α$-RuCl$_3$
Advances in experimental instrumentation and automation generate increasingly rich datasets, but turning experimental observations into microscopic understanding remains a bottleneck in scientific…Quantum transmission in 1D disordered stealthy hyperuniform Kronig--Penney-like models
Disordered stealthy hyperuniform (SHU) systems are emerging as platforms for controlling classical and quantum transport due to vanishing single-scattering contributions in the stealthy regime.Towards Strongly Aperiodic Monotiles in Higher Dimensions
The discovery of Chair44 (Tsiokos, 2026) settled the three-dimensional einstein problem with a strongly aperiodic polyhedral monotile in $\mathbb{R}^3$.A strategic roadmap for an atomistic machine-learning ecosystem
Data-driven machine learning (ML) techniques have become an essential tool in many domains of science.Boron vacancies in bulk h-BN created by high-energy He+ irradiation
While color centers in diamond and other three-dimensional crystals are nowadays key elements of several types of sensors, color centers in two-dimensional materials are rapidly developing and…Polynomial-time local-unitary equivalence of graph states
Local-unitary (LU) equivalence asks whether two quantum states differ only by independent changes of basis on their qubits.
