Broadband Multifunctional Efficient Meta-Gratings Based on Dielectric Waveguide Phase Shifters
(American Chemical Society, 2015) -
Broadband Waveguide QED System on a Chip
(American Physical Society, 2009)We demonstrate that a slot waveguide provides a broadband loss-free platform suitable for applications in quantum optics. We find that strong coupling between light quanta and a single quantum emitter placed in the waveguide ... -
Broadening the Scope of Phage-Assisted Continuous Evolution
(2021-11-16)Continuous directed evolution methods allow the key steps of evolution—gene diversification, selection, and replication—to proceed in the laboratory with minimal researcher intervention. As a result, continuous evolution ... -
Broadly Available Imaging Devices Enable High-Quality Low-Cost Photometry
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2015)This paper demonstrates that, for applications in resource-limited environments, expensive microplate spectrophotometers that are used in many central laboratories for parallel measurement of absorbance of samples can be ... -
Broadly heterogeneous activation of the master regulator for sporulation in Bacillus subtilis
(Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2010)A model system for investigating how developmental regulatory networks determine cell fate is spore formation in Bacillus subtilis. The master regulator for sporulation is Spo0A, which is activated by phosphorylation via ... -
Broadly neutralizing antibody recognition of diverse HIV envelopes modulates effector function
(2022-11-23)While neutralization of free virus is essential for protection against HIV transmission, the fragment crystallizable (Fc) region mediated functions of broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) have also been shown to be ... -
Broken Mirror Symmetry in Excitonic Response of Reconstructed Domains in Twisted MoSe2/MoSe2 Bilayers
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-07-13)Van der Waals heterostructures obtained via stacking and twisting have been used to create moiré superlattices, enabling new optical and electronic properties in solid-state systems. Moiré lattices in twisted bilayers of ... -
Broken Symmetry States and Divergent Resistance in Suspended Bilayer Graphene
(Nature Publishing Group, 2009)Mono- and bilayer graphene have generated tremendous excitement owing to their unique and potentially useful electronic properties\(^1\). Suspending single-layer graphene flakes above the substrate\({^2}{^,}{^3}\) has been ... -
Brokers and the Roots of Partisanship in Indonesia
(2023-09-05)Why are parties stable and voters loyal when brokers are independent, vote-buying is ubiquitous, rates of party identification are low, intra-party competition is fierce, and ideology is absent? In other words, why might ... -
Bromine Chemistry in the Present-Day and Pre-Industrial Troposphere: Implications from Modeling and Satellite Observations
(2013-02-12)This dissertation investigates the impact of bromine on tropospheric ozone, OH, and mercury in the preindustrial and present-day atmosphere through use of modeling and observations from satellite. We developed bromine ... -
Bromine-free quinone flow battery chemistries
(American Chemical Society, 2015) -
Bronze, Jade, Gold, and Ivory: Valuable Objects in Ancient Sichuan
(Cotsen Institute of Archaeology Press, 2012)If negotiations about value are essentially political (Graeber 2001:115), our understanding of past political systems is illuminated by an understanding of how and through what processes value is attributed to objects in ... -
Brood Reduction and Optimal Parental Investment when Offspring Differ in Quality
(University of Chicago Press, 1990)No abstract -
Brooding in Mecistocephalus togensis (Geophilomorpha: Placodesmata) and the Evolution of Parental Care in Centipedes (Chilopoda)
(Brill Academic Publishers, 2010)The only well-documented data on female brooding posture in the geophilomorph family Mecistocephalidae come from Dicellophilus carniolensis (C.L. Koch, 1847), in which the mother coils around the eggs and hatchlings with ... -
Brownian Motion in Gravitationally Interacting Systems
(American Physical Society, 2002)wWe derive a model that describes the dynamics of a Brownian particle, such as a massive black hole, in a stellar system dominated by gravitational forces, and examine whether it achieves a state of equipartition of kinetic ... -
Brownian Motion of Molecular Probes in Supercooled Liquids
(American Physical Society (APS), 2015)When a supercooled liquid approaches glass transition, viscous flow slows down greatly, but often the Brownian motion of a molecular probe in the host liquid does not slow down as much, causing the Stokes-Einstein relation ... -
Browsing in the Western Stacks

Bruegel and the Lost Art of Cloth Painting
(2019-01-24)The art world’s most sensational event of 2010 was the rediscovery of Bruegel’s Wine of St. Martin’s Day, his largest extant painting and one of four painted in distemper on linen canvas. While the rest of his surviving ...
