Band and Correlated Insulators of Cold Fermions in a Mesoscopic Lattice
Jean-Philippe Brantut, Thierry Giamarchi, Samuel Häusler
We investigate the transport properties of neutral, fermionic atoms passing through a one-dimensional quantum wire containing a mesoscopic lattice. The lattice is realized by projecting individually controlled, thin optical barriers on top of a ballistic c ...
2018A Review of Field-to-Transmission Line Coupling Models With Special Emphasis to Lightning-Induced Voltages on Overhead Lines
We discuss the transmission line (TL) theory and its application to the problem of lightning electromagnetic field coupling to TLs. We start with the derivation of the general field-to-TL coupling equations for the case of a single-wire line above a perfec ...
Ieee-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc2012Symmetry breaking in a plasmonic metamaterial at optical wavelength
We numerically study the effect of structural asymmetry in a plasmonic metamaterial made from gold nanowires. It is reported that optically inactive (i.e., optically dark) particle plasmon modes of the symmetric wire lattice are immediately coupled to the ...
2008Focusing and continuous separation of cells in a microfluidic device using lateral dielectrophoresis
Philippe Renaud, Thomas Michael Braschler, Nicolas Demierre, Randoald Müller
We have fabricated a microfluidic device based on a novel geometrical arrangement of lateral metal electrodes and a patterned insulator. Our device combines the concept of insulator-based “electrodeless” dielectrophoresis with multiple frequencies to achie ...
2008External impedance and admittance of buried horizontal wires for transient studies using transmission line analysis
The paper investigates the applicability of some closed form expressions for the ground impedance and ground admittance of buried horizontal wires (bare and insulated) for lightning or switching transient analyses based on transmission line (TL) theory. In ...
2007Lightning currents and electromagnetic fields associated with return strokes to elevated strike objects
Lightning currents and electromagnetic fields associated with return strokes to elevated strike objects The aim of this thesis is the modeling of lightning return strokes impacting elevated strike objects such as towers. The theoretical and experimental wo ...
EPFL2003Lightning protection of distribution networks. Part II: Application to MV networks
The basic information for designers of lightning protection of MV and LV networks is given in Part I of the present publication. This Part II gives an application of this basic information to the lightning protection of MV networks containing overhead line ...
1997Overvoltages induced by lightning on overhead power and distribution lines with sag
Marcos Rubinstein, Michel Ianoz, José-Luis Bermudez
Researchers working on the problem of the coupling of lightning electromagnetic fields to overhead lines have suggested that, if the formulation of the coupling problem given by Agrawal et al. is adopted, only the horizontal component of the electric field ...
