Electromagnetic Fields Associated With the M‐Component Mode of Charge Transfer

Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Davide Pavanello, Lixia He

In upward flashes, charge transfer to ground largely takes place during the initial continuous current (ICC) and its superimposed pulses (ICC pulses). ICC pulses can be associated with either M-component or leader/return-stroke like modes of charge transfe ...

Bloch surface waves at the telecommunication wavelength with lithium niobate as the top layer for integrated optics

Hans Peter Herzig, Myun Sik Kim, Maria-Pilar Bernal

Lithium niobate (LN)-based devices are widely used in integrated and nonlinear optics. This material is robust and resistive to high temperatures, which makes the LN-based devices stable, but challenging to fabricate. In this work, we report on the design, ...

Seismic Dispersion and Attenuation in Fluid-Saturated Carbonate Rocks: Effect of Microstructure and Pressure

Lucas Xan Pimienta

The frequency dependence of seismic properties of fully saturated rocks can be related to wave-induced fluid flows at different scales. The elastic dispersion and attenuation of four fluid-saturated carbonate rocks, with different microstructures, have bee ...

Gain enhancement of circular waveguide antennas using near-zero index metamaterials

Kosmas Tsakmakidis, Ershad Mohammadi, Foziyeh Sohrabi

In this article, a rigorous analytical methodology is introduced for designing near-zero refractive index metamaterials (NZIMs). Our proposed NZIM media is realized by three stacked layers of perforated metallic surfaces, each layer composed of a fishnet-l ...

Matrix Fourier optics enables a compact full-Stokes polarization camera

Gabriele D'Aversa

Recent developments have enabled the practical realization of optical elements in which the polarization of light may vary spatially. We present an extension of Fourier optics-matrix Fourier optics-for understanding these devices and apply it to the design ...

Optimization of Spin-Wave Propagation with Enhanced Group Velocities by Exchange-Coupled Ferrimagnet-Ferromagnet Bilayers

Dirk Grundler, Vinayak Shantaram Bhat, Kyongmo An

We report broadband spectroscopy and numerical analysis by which we explore propagating spin waves in a magnetic bilayer consisting of a 23-nm thick permalloy film deposited on 130-nm thick Y_3Fe_5O_12. In the bilayer, we observe a characteristic mode that ...

Line narrowing in H-1 NMR of powdered organic solids with TOP-CT-MAS experiments at ultra-fast MAS

David Lyndon Emsley, Brennan James Walder, Federico Maria Paruzzo

The residual broadening observed in H-1 spectra of rigid organic solids at natural abundance under 111 kHz magic angle spinning (MAS) is typically a few hundred Hertz. Here we show that refocusable and non-refocusable interactions contribute roughly equall ...

Seismic and Microseismic Signatures of Fluids in Rocks: Bridging the Scale Gap

Lucas Xan Pimienta, Christian David

The aim of this collection is to record a snapshot of our current state of understanding of the impact of fluids on the evolution and monitorability of subsurface rock formations during anthropogenic fluid injection/withdrawal operations, accounting for sc ...

Surface-wave dispersion retrieval method and synthesis technique for bianisotropic metasurfaces

Olivier Martin, Karim Achouri

We propose a surface-wave dispersion retrieval method and synthesis technique that applies to bianisotropic metasurfaces that are embedded in symmetric or asymmetric environments. Specifically, we use general zero-thickness sheet transition conditions to r ...

Micro-focused MHz pink beam for time-resolved X-ray emission spectroscopy

Christoph Bostedt, Andre Al Haddad

The full radiation from the first harmonic of a synchrotron undulator (between 5 and 12 keV) at the Advanced Photon Source is microfocused using a stack of beryllium compound refractive lenses onto a fast-moving liquid jet and overlapped with a high-repeti ...
