Terahertz electrodynamics and kinetic inductance of disordered titanium–vanadium alloy thin films

Disordered superconductors represent an important area in modern condensed matter physics, where superconductivity survives even in the presence of strong electron scattering and localization effects. Understanding how disorder modifies the high-frequency electrodynamic response...

High-efficiency broadband mid-infrared absorption in asymmetrically matched metallic meanders: Development of Ti40V60 alloy-based lumped element kinetic inductance detectors for mid-far IR

Fast, highly sensitive, and broadband detectors operating in the mid-to-far-infrared (MIR–FIR) spectral region are essential for applications ranging from astrophysics to time-resolved spectroscopy using laboratory-based sources and beamlines at Infrared Free-Electron Laser (IR-F...

Multiscale Symmetry Breaking Enables Tunable Magnetic Anisotropy and Damping in Co 2 FeAl Thin Films

ABSTRACT The ability to simultaneously engineer magnetic stability and spin dissipation remains difficult to realize in scalable metallic thin films. Here, we show that multiscale symmetry breaking provides a route to achieve this control in polycrystalline Co 2 FeAl films withou...
