A MATLAB-based tool for visualizing the plane wave propagation in multilayer structures containing metamaterials

The paper reports on a graphical user interface developed in MATLAB to aid the visualization of the plane wave impinging from a lossless half-space onto a multilayer structure. Individual layers are assumed to be homogeneous and isotropic with electric per ...

Some Fundamental Issues and Verification of 3DEC in Modeling Wave Propagation in Jointed Rock Masses

Jian Zhao, Jianbo Zhu

Discontinuities in rock masses greatly influence stress wave transmission. Before performing numerical modeling on complicated cases, benchmarking modeling must be performed first to validate the numerical code through comparison with theoretical solutions ...

Axial phase measurements of light interacting with microstructures

Hans Peter Herzig, Toralf Scharf, Myun Sik Kim

We present an experimental method to study field structures of highly confined light after interaction with microstructures. A high-resolution interference microscope (HRIM) allows us to measure the three-dimensional (3D) amplitude and phase distributions ...

A time-domain recursive method to analyse transient wave propagation across rock joints

Jian Zhao

The present investigation is concerned with transient wave propagation in a rock mass with a set of parallel joints by using a recursive method. According to the displacement field of a rock mass with a set of parallel joints, the interaction between four ...

Spin-wave excitations and superconducting resonant mode in CsxFe2−ySe2

Jonathan White, Peter Babkevich, Kazimierz Conder

We report neutron inelastic scattering measurements on the normal and superconducting states of single-crystalline Cs0.8Fe1.9Se2. Consistent with previous measurements on RbxFe2−ySe2, we observe two distinct spin excitation signals: (i) spin-wave excitatio ...

Mode conversion from quantized to propagating spin waves in a rhombic antidot lattice supporting spin wave nanochannels

Dirk Grundler

We report spin wave excitations in a nanopatterned antidot lattice fabricated from a 30-nm thick Ni80Fe20 film. The 250-nm-wide circular holes are arranged in a rhombic unit cell with a lattice constant of 400 nm. By Brillouin light scattering, we find tha ...

Review and perspectives of electrostatic turbulence and transport studies in the basic plasma physics device TORPEX

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Paolo Ricci, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Joaquim Loizu Cisquella, Fabio Avino, Kyle Gustafson, Alexandre Dominique Bovet

TORPEX is a basic plasma physics toroidal device located at the CRPP-EPFL in Lausanne. In TORPEX, a vertical magnetic field superposed on a toroidal field creates helicoidal field lines with both ends terminating on the torus vessel. We review recent advan ...

The physics behind free electron lasers (FELs) based on magnetostatic and optical undulators

Giorgio Margaritondo, Primoz Rebernik Ribic

By explicitly writing the equations of motion for highly relativistic electrons in an electromagnetic field we show the equivalence between the magnetostatic and optical (laser) undulator-based free electron lasers (FELs). In order to gain insight into the ...

Complete band gaps for magnetostatic forward volume waves in a two-dimensional magnonic crystal

Dirk Grundler

We report on the formation of a complete band gap for spin waves in a two-dimensional magnonic crystal consisting of a periodic hole lattice. We go beyond the partial band gaps observed so far in that we apply a magnetic field perpendicular to the permallo ...

Analysis and design of terahertz antennas based on plasmonic resonant graphene sheets

Juan Ramon Mosig, Julien Perruisseau-Carrier, Michele Tamagnone

Resonant graphene antennas used as true interfaces between terahertz (THz) space waves and a source/detector are presented. It is shown that in addition to the high miniaturization related to the plasmonic nature of the resonance, graphene-based THz antenn ...
