    The Temperature Dependence of Elastic Constants and Zener Anisotropy in Single Crystal KTaO3 Below Room Temperature
    (Pleiades Publishing Ltd, 2025) Li, C. H.; Ding, X. D.; Carpenter, M. A.; Aktas, O.
    We present the first experimental report of the complete elastic tensor of incipient ferroelectric KTaO3 between 9.6 and 307 K, using resonant ultrasound spectroscopy (RUS). The elastic constants C-11 and C-44, as well as the bulk and shear moduli increase roughly linearly upon cooling. Deviations from such dependence are a result of impurities. Zener anisotropy factor is 0.697 at room temperature and decreases to 0.627 at 9.6 K, indicating increasing elastic anisotropy. The temperature dependence of C-12 is anomalous with no stiffening on cooling, which could be a result of different defect species influencing C-12 but not the other constants, possibly due to defect anisotropy. The values of elastic constants and anisotropy are compared at room temperature and below 10 K with the literature reporting experimental results and density functional theory calculations.

    Time-Resolved Stokes Polarization Analysis of Single Photon Emitters in Hexagonal Boron Nitride
    (American Chemical Society, 2025) Samaner, C.; Ateş, S.
    Solid-state quantum emitters are pivotal to the advancement of quantum technologies, particularly in quantum computation and communication, where the polarization of single photons serves as a key information carrier. Precise characterization of polarization is essential for understanding the underlying dynamics and minimizing polarization-related errors in emitter design. In this study, we employ the Rotating Quarter-Wave Plate (RQWP) method to perform comprehensive polarization analysis of quantum emitters in hexagonal boron nitride (hBN). By capturing both time-averaged and time-resolved polarization characteristics, we present the first demonstration of dynamic Stokes parameter evolution from single-photon emitters in hBN. Our work demonstrates a powerful method for revealing complex polarization dynamics that were previously inaccessible and provides new insights into the behavior of solid-state quantum emitters. The methods introduced here are broadly applicable to polarization studies across a range of solid-state quantum systems. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
