Public research university in Orlando, Florida, whose CREOL college specializes in optics and photonics research and education.
UCF physicists led by Madhab Neupane report signatures of altermagnetism in Co1/4TaSe2, a layered crystal containing magnetic cobalt atoms. The evidence is surface maps of its electron bands, so device builders get a well-characterized test material whose spin currents still need measuring.
Reality
Researchers at four institutions report in Nature Physics that 1,550-nm circular pulses dress a graphene strip into a transient Floquet state, and a 775-nm field sets the direction of the current that flows out.
Reality
Florida scrub-jays rarely breed before age two, and six months after 48 one-year-olds were released at a site stocked to its estimated carrying capacity, four of the ten new pairs had attempted a nest.
Reality
Stanford and SLAC found the early optical signal they went looking for in common II-VI semiconductors, but the geometry that revealed it has to know when the radiation arrived, which a working detector never does.
Reality
Schambeau's team reports carbon dioxide emission with no water or carbon monoxide around 450P/LONEOS, which points to gas escaping warming buried ice, while the Saturn encounter behind it remains an orbital reconstruction.
Reality
A hyperscaler has put a follow-on purchase order behind hollow-core fiber. For network architects, the useful figure is not the latency cut but the extra distance it buys.
