Terahertz field-induced giant symmetry modulations in a van der Waals antiferromagnet
Abstract Strong-field terahertz (THz) excitations enable dynamic control over electronic, lattice and symmetry degrees of freedom in quantum materials. Here, we uncover pronounced terahertz-induced symmetry modulations and coherent phonon dynamics in the van der Waals antiferromagnet MnPS3, in which inversion symmetry is broken by its antiferromagnetic spin configuration.

ADU's as Condo's? A Growing Trend in Portland
Around Portland, there continues to be growing interest in ADUs being turned into condos. What used to just be backyard rentals or extra living space are now showing up as legitimate homeownership options! With traditional single-family homes getting harder to afford, these smaller units offer a lower-cost way to buy in established neighborhoods. They’re also appealing to people who want less space, less maintenance, and a more sustainable lifestyle.
When Selling a Condo Becomes a Marathon
Most transactions come with challenges, and most condominiums come with extra challenges. But many require not only patience and problem-solving but a willingness to navigate previously uncharted paths and lessons. Recently, I represented a seller in a condo sale that became one of those.

My Love for the More Deserted Beaches
The Oregon Coast has always been as special place to me. I always find peace in listening and watching the waves. But rather than the long expanses of sand, I prefer the rugged cliffs, giant rocks, and crashing waves. And, even better are the less commoninstances that I’m able to access a more private beach such as Three Rocks near Lincoln City which is only accessible by boat or private access. There’s something extra magical about the places where less people have even been.

Real Estate and The Estate.
I do a lot of work with estates. These transactions are typically much more involved than the typical real estate transaction.

AI technology will save contact centre agents, not displace them
Technology-enabled transformation is a growing trend as operators look to access the latest technologies shaping the contact centre of the future, with artificial intelligence (AI) a key strategic focus.
The journey to the contact centre of the future starts in the cloud
As competition for customer retention and loyalty intensifies, establishing a point of strategic differentiation through contact centre transformation will become a business imperative.

A significant factor driving the shift to a future-ready contact centre is the phasing out of on-premises legacy solutions.
