Observation of non-reciprocal harmonic conversion in real sounds

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Hervé Lissek, Xinxin Guo

Reciprocity guarantees that in most media, sound transmission is symmetric between two points of space when the location of the source and receiver are interchanged. This fundamental law can be broken in non-linear media, often at the cost of detrimental i ...

Nonlinear Frequency Conversion in III-Nitride Doubly Resonant Photonic Crystal Cavities

Jun Wang

Nonlinear frequency conversion processes, such as second-harmonic generation (SHG) and spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC), are essential in many applications, including the generation of entangled photons. It's desirable to enhance these process ...

Tunable photo-induced second-harmonic generation in a mode-engineered silicon nitride microresonator

Camille Sophie Brès, Jianqi Hu, Edgars Nitiss, Boris Zabelich, Anton Stroganov

All-optical poling enables reconfigurable and efficient quasi-phase-matching for second-order parametric frequency conversion in silicon nitride integrated photonics. Here, we report broadly tunable milliwatt-level second-harmonic generation in a small fre ...

A chip-scale second-harmonic source via self-injection-locked all-optical poling

Tobias Kippenberg, Camille Sophie Brès, Junqiu Liu, Edgars Nitiss, Marco Clementi

Second-harmonic generation allows for coherently bridging distant regions of the optical spectrum, with applications ranging from laser technology to self-referencing of frequency combs. However, accessing the nonlinear response of a medium typically requi ...

Hearing functional harmony in jazz: A perceptual study on music-theoretical accounts of extended tonality

Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Steffen Alexander Herff, Daniel Harasim, Gabriele Cecchetti, Christoph Finkensiep

Functional harmony is an integral part of many repertoires in the Western musical practices, including both diatonic and extended tonality. In the latter context, music-theoretical accounts suggest that the three octatonic equivalence classes (OECs) consis ...

Optically reconfigurable quasi-phase-matching in silicon nitride microresonators

Camille Sophie Brès, Jianqi Hu, Edgars Nitiss, Anton Stroganov

Quasi-phase-matching has long been a widely used approach in nonlinear photonics, enabling efficient parametric frequency conversions such as second-harmonic generation. However, in silicon photonics the task remains challenging, as materials best suited f ...

A Structured Dictionary Perspective on Implicit Neural Representations

Pascal Frossard, Guillermo Ortiz Jimenez, Beril Besbinar, Gizem Yüce

Implicit neural representations (INRs) have recently emerged as a promising alternative to classical discretized representations of signals. Nevertheless, despite their practical success, we still do not understand how INRs represent signals. We propose a ...

Modelling of AC/DC Interactions of Converter-Interfaced Resources for Harmonic Power-Flow Studies in Microgrids

Mario Paolone, Andreas Martin Kettner, Yihui Zuo, Johanna Kristin Maria Becker

Modern power distribution systems experience a large-scale integration of Converter-Interfaced Distributed Energy Resources (CIDERs). As acknowledged by recent literature, the interaction of individual CIDER components and different CIDERs through the grid ...

Data-driven numerical site response

Jean-François Molinari, Antonio Joaquin Garcia Suarez, Sacha Zenon Wattel

Prediction of ground motion triggered by earthquakes is a prime concern for both the seismology community and geotechnical earthquake engineering one. The subfield occupied with such a problem is termed site response analysis (SRA), its one-dimensional fla ...

Discovering Tonal Profiles with Latent Dirichlet Allocation

Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Fabian Claude Moss

Music analysis, in particular harmonic analysis, is concerned with the way pitches are organized in pieces of music, and a range of empirical applications have been developed, for example, for chord recognition or key finding. Naturally, these approaches r ...

Seeded Multimode Quasi-Phase-Matching in All-Optically Poled Silicon Nitride Waveguides

Camille Sophie Brès, Edgars Nitiss, Ozan Yakar

We demonstrate seeding-enabled all-optical poling of silicon nitride waveguides as short as 5 mm, and account for quasi-phase-matching (QPM) inside the waveguide between the fundamental mode of pump and higher order second-harmonic modes. ...

Effects of impurities and local behavior characterization using active thermography on solid oxide electrolysis cells

Guillaume Jeanmonod

Ambitious policies are needed from every country to drastically curtail the anthropogenic emission of greenhouse gases responsible for the on-going modification of the earth's climate. A quick transition towards a society fully based on renewable materials ...

Learning music composition with recurrent neural networks

Florian François Colombo

Throughout this thesis, we are interested in modeling music composition. To do so, we study the association of music theory concepts with the learning capabilities of recurrent neural networks. Especially, we explore numerical formalizations of music so th ...

A Formal Model of Extended Tonal Harmony

Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Fabian Claude Moss

Extended tonality is a central system that characterizes the music from the 19th up to the 21st century, including styles like popular music, film music or Jazz. Developing from classical major-minor tonality, the harmonic language of extended tonality for ...

Doubly resonant second-harmonic generation of a vortex beam from a bound state in the continuum

Nicolas Grandjean, Romuald Houdré, Jean-François Carlin, Matteo Galli, Momchil Minkov, Marco Clementi, Jun Wang

Second-harmonic generation in nonlinear materials can be greatly enhanced by realizing doubly resonant cavities with high quality factors. However, fulfilling such doubly resonant condition in photonic crystal (PhC) slab cavities is a long-standing challen ...

Modes interplay controls the second harmonic generation dynamics of plasmonic nanostructures

Olivier Martin, Andrei Kiselev, Gabriel David Bernasconi

A large amount of experimental and theoretical works deals with the second harmonic generation from different plasmonic geometries. Since they often consider relatively long optical pulses, many of these studies are focused on the investigation of a quasi- ...

The pleasantness of sensory dissonance is mediated by musical style and expertise

Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Fabian Claude Moss, Markus Franz Josef Neuwirth

Western musical styles use a large variety of chords and vertical sonorities. Based on objective acoustical properties, chords can be situated on a dissonant-consonant continuum. While this might to some extent converge with the unpleasant-pleasant continu ...
