HOUSTON - (May 25, 2021) - Sometimes things are a little out of whack, and it turns out to be exactly what you need.
That was the case when orthoferrite crystals turned up at a Rice University laboratory slightly misaligned. Those crystals inadvertently became the basis of a discovery that should resonate with researchers studying spintronics-based quantum technology.
Rice physicist Junichiro Kono, alumnus Takuma Makihara and their collaborators found an orthoferrite material, in this case yttrium iron oxide, placed in a high magnetic field showed uniquely tunable, ultrastrong interactions between magnons in the crystal.
A group of researchers from the Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics (SIOM) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences recently came up with a new theory on the source of residual infrared absorption in Ti:sapphire laser crystals.
Chinese Academy of Sciences
Recently, a research group from Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics (SIOM) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences proposed a new theory on the origin of residual infrared absorption in Ti:sapphire laser crystals. The related research results have been published in Photonics Research on May 4, 2021.
Ti:sapphire (also called Ti-doped α-Al
2O
3) is one of the three basic laser crystal materials. Due to its excellent physical and chemical, spectral, and laser properties, Ti:sapphire has been one of the key materials for super-intense ultrafast laser devices.
Since the laser properties of Ti:sapphire was reported in 1982, the residual infrared absorption (with peak value around 800 nm), coincident with the laser emission band, has been the key problem affecting its laser emission efficiency. Therefore, the determination of the origin of residual infrared absorption has been a research hotspot in the community of Ti:sapphire laser crystals.

Bucking the diabetes trend? Consumption of sea buckthorn for five weeks decreases fasting blood glucose in prediabetics By Guan Yu Lim Consumption of sea buckthorn fruit puree for five weeks has been found to decrease fasting plasma glucose levels in people with prediabetes, according to a study conducted in China.
The findings showed that fasting plasma glucose decreased by 0.14 mmol/L after five weeks’ consumption of sea buckthorn (90mL/day), and was found to increase by 0.07 mmol/L in the placebo group.
Sea buckthorn has been studied in animal and human trials for its hypoglycemic potential especially in reducing fasting plasma glucose.
