  abstract     = {{<jats:p>Magnetron-sputtered CNx thin films are primarily employed as hard, low-friction protective and tribological coatings, as solar cells, and for catalytic applications. Lower growth rates and a reduced N content, favoring graphitic sp2 structures, hinder industrial scalability due to prolonged deposition times and produce softer, less dense films with inferior hardness, elasticity, and wear resistance. Carbon nitride films deposited by magnetron sputtering exhibit growth behavior strongly influenced by plasma–surface interactions. However, nitrogen resputtering and reduced film growth rates are commonly attributed to chemical etching by positive ions. We propose an additional, unreported power-dependent mechanism involving negative ions formed at the carbon target. These ions are accelerated through the plasma sheath, reaching the substrate with high kinetic energy and inducing both chemical and physical resputtering. This effect is localized to the geometrical projection of the target, as shown by spatially resolved analysis: ellipsometry reveals thickness reduction, and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy indicate nitrogen depletion within this region. Correlation between stoichiometry and structural signatures confirms the decisive role of negative ions in modifying the film composition and microstructure. At the same time, the composition of the gas mixture exerts only a minor effect.</jats:p>}},

We introduce a paradigm shift using a many‐body plasmonic architecture inspired by statistical mechanics. By moving toward the continuum limit, local geometric variations are statistically averaged out, effectively decoupling optical performance from microscopic disorder. We implement this concept via a lithography‐ and etching‐free, multi‐step dewetting strategy, creating wafer‐scale nanoclusters. This process strategically forms a robust many‐body system by introducing numerous small satellite nanoparticles between larger particles. Crucially, this design achieves a high collective enhancement that surpasses even optimized few‐body systems, despite having larger individual gaps. Under optimized conditions, these substrates exhibit a surface‐enhanced Raman scattering enhancement factor approaching 4 × 10^8 with unprecedented reproducibility (RSD of ∼10%). This scalable, low‐cost concept establishes a practical route toward reproducible wafer‐scale nanophotonic platforms for sensing, spectroscopy, and quantum technologies.}},

                    We develop a framework for identifying nonclassical speedups in systems with polarization, likewise spin degrees of freedom. By confining the dynamics to the manifold of angular momentum coherent states, which act as the classical reference in this case, we compute the speed limit that bounds the rate of change of the state achievable without generating quantum coherence. A comparison with the unrestricted quantum speed limit enables the quantitative identification of speedups arising from polarization nonclassicality. We apply this framework to the cross-Kerr interaction, demonstrating a persistent speedup scaling as

Here, we demonstrate a hybrid nonlinear optoelectronic device that enhances the detection efficiency of a (001)-oriented GaAs PIN photodiode under telecommunication-wavelength illumination, where absorption is intrinsically limited to two-photon absorption (2PA). Our approach relies on the integration of a transferred, nanopatterned 385 nm-thick (111)-oriented GaAs nanofilm acting as an on-chip nonlinear frequency-conversion layer. Elliptical GaAs nanoresonators are employed to enhance second-harmonic generation (SHG) resonantly, converting incident 1550 nm radiation into above-bandgap photons efficiently absorbed by the underlying diode. Spatially resolved current–voltage measurements reveal a pronounced enhancement of the detector response in regions covered by the nanoantennas. The device exhibits a low dark current, while the metasurface-covered regions show the largest current response under 1560 nm excitation compared to the bare GaAs(100) diode and the unstructured GaAs(111) film. These results establish a direct functional link between dielectric metasurface–based nonlinear frequency conversion and electrical photodetection, providing a viable route toward integrated sub-bandgap detection schemes.</jats:p>}},

Dabei wird der Prozess der parametrischen Fluoreszenz (PDC) mithilfe von Integro-Differentialgleichungen modelliert, welche die räumliche Entwicklung der Ebene-Wellen-Operatoren beschreiben. Es wurde gezeigt, dass Supersensitivität für die Phasenempfindlichkeit dieser Interferometer erreicht werden kann, sofern die Beugung der PDC Strahlung kompensiert wird. Weiterhin führt eine Erhöhung der parametrische Verstärkung und eine Reduktion der Schmidt-Zahl zu einer Verbesserung der Phasenempfindlichkeit und einer Verkleinerung des Phasenbereiches, über den die Supersensitivität erreicht werden kann. Basierend auf der Struktur der Schmidt-Moden von SU(1,1) Interferometern wurde ein numerisches Aufbereitungsverfahren konstruiert, welches die Messung der Stärke des Squeezing und Anti-Squeezing des Zustandes ermöglicht, der durch den ersten Kristall des Interferometers erzeugt wird. Das Verfahren wurde experimentell von Kooperationspartnern angewandt, wobei eine gute Übereinstimmung mit der Theorie festgestellt wurde. Zuletzt wurden SU(1,1) Interferometer mit Laguerre-Gauß-Moden als Pump-Strahlung für die Messung von Winkelverschiebungen untersucht. Es zeigte sich, dass sich die quantenmechanisch bedingte Messunsicherheit verbessert, wenn die parametrische Verstärkung oder die Indizes der Pump-Mode erhöht werden.

We consider two interferometric configurations: firstly, the SU(1,1) interferometer where the idler incurs loss and additional dispersion in between two identical, lossless, squeezers; secondly, the induced coherence interferometer where the idler incurs loss and additional dispersion in between two identical, lossless, squeezers and where the second squeezer is seeded by the idler and a vacuum ancilla mode. Furthermore, we consider a distributed loss configuration where the idler incurs loss as it propagates in the nonlinear medium. Motivated by experimental evidence and due to the fact that broadband sources are ideal for these measurement schemes, we use the dispersive data of a third-order dispersion engineered integrated waveguide parametric down conversion (PDC) source presented in Roeder

These needs are—according to Ainscow’s (2007) inclusive turn—not primarily ‘special educational needs’, but diverse needs of all learners. For the rather segregated German educational system, this endeavour applies especially to primary education, where needs are still developing and pupils are not yet assigned to different types of schooling according to their needs and abilities.

Despite a substantial amount of research on pupils’ basic psychological needs for autonomy, competence and social relatedness (Ryan et al., 2022), strategies that technology education teachers apply in this regard are not yet well understood. Besides interventional studies on technology education, indicating effectiveness of self‑directed and action‑oriented teaching and learning, there is a dearth of research on how teachers address different needs as a routine.

The purpose of the presented study is therefore to investigate and systematize actions and strategies teachers apply, and to specify how pupils' needs are considered when teaching technology education on a given topic.

The overall study used a mixed-methods approach to the question how pupils’ needs are characterized by themselves and by their teachers, and how they were taken into account in a lesson adapted and delivered by the teachers. In the sub-study presented here, participating primary school teachers were interviewed about their consideration of pupils’ needs whilst planning and conducting a technology education unit on the functionality of robots.

The results gained from qualitative content analysis of the interviews indicate that although the anticipation of different needs is considered challenging, teachers possess a substantiate amount of practices and strategies to take them into account.

The paper systematizes the practices teachers described in structured interviews within strategies and discusses the contribution of taking basic needs into account for inclusive technology education.}},

Interestingly, for both bacteria, the total number of vancomycin modifications appears to be more important than their arrangement, as DONs with 18 vancomycin molecules on one side show similar binding as DONs with 18 vancomycin molecules distributed over both sides. This enables the attachment of multiple probe molecules to the vancomycin‐free side of the DONs for enhancing detection efficiency without compromising binding affinity. These results may thus provide guidelines for the design and synthesis of vancomycin‐modified DONs for antimicrobial drug delivery and pathogen detection.

  abstract     = {{The two-qubit controlled-not (C-NOT) gate is an essential component for gate-based quantum circuits. In fact, its operation, combined with single qubit rotations allows to realise any quantum circuit. Several strategies have been adopted in order to build quantum gates. Among them, photonics offers the dual advantage of excellent isolation from the environment and ease of manipulation at the single qubit level. Here we adopt a scalable time-multiplexed approach in order to build a fully reconfigurable architecture capable of implementing a post-selected C-NOT gate with a fidelity of (93.8 ± 1.4)%. We then show how our time-multiplexed platform can be employed to combine a C-NOT and a single qubit gate in order to generate the four Bell states.}},
