Size dependence of second-harmonic scattering from nanoparticles: Disentangling surface and electrostatic contributions

Sylvie Roke, Arianna Marchioro, Bingxin Chu

Polarimetric angle-resolved second-harmonic scattering (AR-SHS) is an all-optical tool enabling the study of unlabeled interfaces of nano-sized particles in an aqueous solution. As the second harmonic signal is modulated by interference between nonlinear c ...

An Efficient Signal-to-noise Approximation for Eccentric Inspiraling Binaries

Alexandra Shelest

Eccentricity has emerged as a potentially useful tool for helping to identify the origin of black hole mergers. However, eccentric templates can be computationally very expensive owing to the large number of harmonics, making statistical analyses to distin ...

A Cryo-CMOS Oscillator With an Automatic Common-Mode Resonance Calibration for Quantum Computing Applications

Edoardo Charbon, Fabio Sebastiano, Yue Chen

This article presents a 4-to-5 GHz LC oscillator operating at 4.2K for quantum computing applications. The phase noise (PN) specification of the oscillator is derived based on the control fidelity for a single-qubit operation. To reveal the substantial gap ...

EEG rhythms in long-lasting spatio-temporal feature integration

Michael Herzog, David Pascucci, Maëlan Quentin Menétrey

Pre-stimulus brain activity is thought to modulate visual perception. However, the nature of this modulation remains debated. In particular, the use of paradigms with very brief and weak stimuli complicates a univocal understanding. Here we focus on phenom ...

Evidence of Smaller 1/F Noise in AlScN-Based Oscillators Compared to AlN-Based Oscillators

Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, Marco Liffredo, Andrea Lozzi

In this paper we investigate the direct effect of resonator quality factor (Q) on the oscillator phase noise. We use 2-port contour mode resonators (CMRs), fabricated both with aluminum nitride (AlN) and aluminum scandium nitride (AlScN), as the frequency- ...

Phase Noise Measurements Of Aluminum Scandium Nitride Oscillators

Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, Marco Liffredo, Andrea Lozzi

This paper presents the first phase noise (PN) measurements of oscillators based on aluminum scandium nitride (AlScN) resonators. 2-port AlScN contour mode resonators (CMR) operating at 195 MHz arc fabricated. A large pool of Q values (ranging from 150 to ...

Design of active Multiple-degrees-of-freedom electroacoustic resonators for use as broadband sound absorbers

Hervé Lissek, Romain Boulandet, Etienne Thierry Jean-Luc Rivet, Sami Driss Karkar

We present a novel control method achieving stable multiple-degrees-of-freedom electroacoustic resonators. Such broadband absorbers, composed of a feedback-controlled electrodynamic loudspeaker, have many practical applications to real-world acoustic engin ...

Novel Concepts and Recent Progress in Distributed Optical Fiber Sensing

Luc Thévenaz, Marcelo Alfonso Soto Hernandez

Recent techniques open new perspectives for distributed fiber sensing. Pulse coding and multi-dimensional denoising methods result in a >10 dB noise reduction with minor modifications of the experimental layout. ...

An information-theoretical perspective on weighted ensemble forecasts

Steven Vincent Weijs, Nicolaas Cornelis van de Giesen

This paper presents an information--theoretical method for weighting ensemble forecasts with new information. Weighted ensemble forecasts can be used to adjust the distribution that an existing ensemble of time series represents, without modifying the valu ...

COSMOGRAIL: the COSmological MOnitoring of GRAvItational Lenses XIII. Time delays and 9-yr optical monitoring of the lensed quasar RX J1131-1231

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Malte Tewes, Nicolas Cantale

We present the results from nine years of optically monitoring the gravitationally lensed z(QSO) = 0.658 quasar RX J1131-1231. The R-band light curves of the four individual images of the quasar were obtained using deconvolution photometry for a total of 7 ...
