Self-similar rupture of thin films of power-law fluid
Models that describe Newtonian liquid films evolving due to the competing effects of surface tension and attractive intermolecular or van der Waals forces are known to rupture in finite time in a self-similar manner. We extend the computation of similarity solutions to non-Newtonian power-law liquid films. The bifurcation diagram, indexed by power law exponent $n$, has a highly nontrivial structure with branches merging via a snaking bifurcation around $n=1$. A countably infinite number of solu…

Organic Electronic Classifiers for Sensing
This monograph describes nine years of research carried out at the Institute for Electronics, Micro-electronics and Nanotechnologies (IEMN), developed around defining a generic concept for detection, filling a void between metrological sensors and biological senses, sensing an environment's qualities along with their measurable properties in information generation technologies. The first chapter introduces fundamental notions of recognition for complex environments, such as for their chemistry,…

ISAC Imaging by Channel State Information using Ray Tracing for Next Generation 6G
Integrated sensing and communications (ISAC) is emerging as a cornerstone technology for sixth generation (6G) wireless systems, unifying connectivity and environmental mapping through shared hardware, spectrum, and waveforms. The following paper presents an ISAC imaging framework utilizing channel state information (CSI) per-path components, transmitter (TX) positions, and receiver (RX) positions obtained from the calibrated NYURay ray tracer at 6.75 GHz in the upper mid-band. Our work shows h…

Mind the Gap: From Resolving Theoretical Foundations of Chiral(ity)-Induced Spin Selectivity to Pioneering Implementations in Quantum Sensing
The chiral(ity)-induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect, where electrons passing through a chiral medium acquire significant spin-polarization at ambient temperatures, has been widely observed experimentally, yet its theoretical foundations remain actively debated. Open questions persist regarding whether CISS originates from helical geometry or more general chirality, and whether a unified mechanism can account for phenomena across solid-state and soft-matter systems, mesoscopic films, and sing…

$NavA^3$: Understanding Any Instruction, Navigating Anywhere, Finding Anything
Embodied navigation is a fundamental capability of embodied intelligence, enabling robots to move and interact within physical environments. However, existing navigation tasks primarily focus on predefined object navigation or instruction following, which significantly differs from human needs in real-world scenarios involving complex, open-ended scenes. To bridge this gap, we introduce a challenging long-horizon navigation task that requires understanding high-level human instructions and perf…

Cooperative Sensing Enhanced UAV Path-Following and Obstacle Avoidance with Variable Formation
The high mobility of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) enables them to be used in various civilian fields, such as rescue and cargo transport. Path-following is a crucial way to perform these tasks while sensing and collision avoidance are essential for safe flight. In this paper, we investigate how to efficiently and accurately achieve path-following, obstacle sensing and avoidance subtasks, as well as their conflict-free fusion scheduling. Firstly, a high precision deep reinforcement learning (…

Study of Optical Properties of MOCVD-Grown Rutile GeO2 Films
Rutile germanium dioxide (r-GeO$_2$) is a promising ultra-wide bandgap (UWBG) semiconductor, offering a high theoretical Baliga figure of merit, potential for p-type doping, and favorable thermal and electrical properties. In this work, we present a comprehensive optical investigation of crystalline r-GeO$_2$ thin films grown on r-TiO$_2$ (001) substrates via metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). Cathodoluminescence (CL) spectroscopy reveals broad visible emissions with distinct peak…

Thickness-Induced Topological Phase Transition Investigated by Helicity Dependent Photocurrent in $α$-Sn/CdTe(110)
$α$-Sn exhibits a rich topological phase diagram, yet experimental methods to tune and distinguish these phases remain limited. Here, we investigated the helicity-dependent photocurrent (HDPC) in $α$-Sn films of varying thickness grown on CdTe(110) by molecular beam epitaxy. The HDPC of the 5 nm $α$-Sn film shows an odd-function dependence on incident angle, whereas that of the 10 and 30 nm films exhibit an even-function dependence. Combined with high-resolution transmission electron microsc…
