Electronic transport in graphene with out-of-plane disorder

Real-world samples of graphene often exhibit various types of out-of-plane disorder-ripples, wrinkles and folds-introduced at the stage of growth and transfer processes. These complex out-of-plane defects resulting from the interplay between self-adhesion ...

Extracting transport channel transmissions in scanning tunneling microscopy using superconducting excess current

Klaus Kern, Markus Etzkorn, Jacob Senkpiel

Transport through quantum coherent conductors, such as atomic junctions, is described by conduction channels. Information about the number of channels and their transmissions can be extracted from various sources, such as multiple Andreev reflections, dyna ...

Electro-Adhesive Tubular Clutch for Variable-Stiffness Robots

Dario Floreano, Hoang Vu Phan, Yi Sun, Krishna Manaswi Digumarti, Omar Aloui

Electro-adhesive clutches have become effective tools for variable stiffness functions in many robotic systems due to their light weight, high speed and strong brake force. In this paper, we present a novel, tubular design of an electro-adhesive clutch. Ou ...

Characterizing the Reserve Provision Capability Area of Active Distribution Networks: A Linear Robust Optimization Method

Fabrizio Sossan, Mokhtar Bozorg, Mohsen Kalantar Neyestanaki

Distributed energy resources (DERs) installed in active distribution networks (ADNs) can be exploited to provide both active and reactive power reserves to the upper-layer grid (i.e., sub-transmission and transmission systems) at their connection point. Th ...

Alfalfa leaf curl virus is efficiently acquired by its aphid vector Aphis craccivora but inefficiently transmitted

Faustine Ambroisine Charline Ryckebusch

Alfalfa leaf curl virus (ALCV) is the first geminivirus for which aphid transmission was reported. Transmission by Aphis craccivora was determined previously to be highly specific and circulative. Using various complementary techniques, the transmission jo ...

The completeness of the generalized eigenfunctions and an upper bound for the counting function of the transmission eigenvalue problem for Maxwell equations

Hoài-Minh Nguyên, Jean Louis-Alexandre Fornerod

Cakoni and Nguyen recently proposed very general conditions on the coefficients of Maxwell equations for which they established the discreten ess of the set of eigenvalues of the transmission problem and studied their locations. In this paper, we establish ...

Performance of chip-scale optical frequency comb generators in coherent WDM communications

Tobias Kippenberg

Optical frequency combs have the potential to become key building blocks of wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) communication systems. The strictly equidistant narrow-band spectral lines of a frequency comb can serve either as carriers for parallel WDM ...

Spread and dynamics of the COVID-19 epidemic in Italy: Effects of emergency containment measures

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Luca Carraro, Marino Gatto

The spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Italy prompted drastic measures for transmission containment. We examine the effects of these interventions, based on modeling of the unfolding epidemic. We test modeling options of the spatially explici ...

Testing of asymptomatic individuals for fast feedback-control of COVID-19 pandemic

Gabriel Aeppli

We argue that frequent sampling of the fraction ofa priorinon-symptomatic but infectious humans (either by random or cohort testing) significantly improves the management of the COVID-19 pandemic, when compared to intervention strategies relying on data fr ...
