Article Abstract
Quasicrystals are aperiodically ordered structures with unconventional rotational symmetry. Their peculiar features have been explored in photonics to engineer bandgaps for light waves. Magnons (spin waves) are collective spin excitations in magnetically ordered materials enabling non-charge-based information transmission in nanoscale devices. Here, we report on a two-dimensional magnonic quasicrystal formed by aperiodically arranged nanotroughs in ferrimagnetic yttrium iron garnet. By phase-resolved spin wave imaging at gigahertz frequencies, multidirectional emission from a microwave antenna is evidenced, allowing for a quasicontinuous radial magnon distribution, not observed in reference measurements on a periodic magnonic crystal. We observe partial forbidden gaps, which are consistent with analytical calculations and indicate band formation as well as a modified magnon density of states due to backfolding at pseudo-Brillouin zone boundaries. The findings promise as-desired filters and magnonic waveguides reaching out in a multitude of directions of the aperiodic lattice.

The coupling between transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) and SrTiO has recently emerged as a fertile platform for discovering interfacial phenomena, where particle interactions, lattice coupling, and dielectric screening give rise to interesting physical effects. These hybrid systems hold significant promise for two-dimensional (2D) electronics, ferroelectric state control, and metastable phase engineering. However, effective modulation of the interfacial electronic structure remains a critical challenge.

Background: Innovative antibiotic discovery strategies are urgently needed to successfully combat infections caused by multi-drug-resistant bacteria.
Methods: We employed a direct screening approach to identify compounds with antimicrobial and antimicrobial helper-drug activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. We used this platform in two different strains of methicillin-resistant (MRSA) and aminoglycoside-resistant strains of to screen for antimicrobials compounds, which potentiate the activity of aminoglycoside antibiotics.

Background: Over the past decade, calls for research assessment reform have grown, led by initiatives such as the Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA) and the Leiden Manifesto, and, more recently, the Coalition for Advancing Research Assessment (CoARA). A key element being discussed as part of research assessment reform is a shift towards more qualitative assessments, focussed on the content of research and the broad skills and competencies of researchers, and the array of contributions they make to knowledge creation and innovation. Narrative CV formats have emerged as a good practice example for enabling qualitative assessments of research projects and researchers, and are becoming more widely piloted and implemented.

The potential of hafnia-based ferroelectric materials for Ferroelectric Random Access Memory (FeRAM) applications is limited by the imprint effect, which compromises readout reliability. Here, we systematically investigate the asymmetric imprint behavior in W/HfZrO/W ferroelectric capacitors, demonstrating that the imprint direction correlates directly with the ferroelectric polarization state. Notably, a pre-pulse of specific polarity can temporarily suppress the imprint effect.

Jasmonates are plant hormones that regulate plant defense and development. 7-iso-Jasmonoyl-l-isoleucine (JA-Ile) is a representative active jasmonate which is biosynthesized from 7-iso-jasmonic acid (JA) by the jasmonoyl-amido synthases JASMONATE RESISTANT 1 (JAR1) and AtGH3.10 in Arabidopsis thaliana.
