Impact of beam-coupling impedance on the Schottky spectrum of bunched beam

Tatiana Pieloni, Nicolas Frank Mounet, Christophe Emmanuel R. Lannoy

The Schottky monitors of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) can be used for non-invasive beam diagnostics to estimate various bunch characteristics, such as tune, chromaticity, bunch profile or synchrotron frequency distribution. However, collective effects, ...

Dynamic control of high-voltage actuator arrays by light-pattern projection on photoconductive switches

Herbert Shea, Amir Firouzeh, Vesna Bacheva, Edouard Franck Vincent Gustave Leroy, Aiste Balciunaite

The ability to control high-voltage actuator arrays relies, to date, on expensive microelectronic processes or on individual wiring of each actuator to a single off-chip high-voltage switch. Here we present an alternative approach that uses on-chip photoco ...

Assessing the persistence of chalcogen bonds in solution with neural network potentials

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Veronika Juraskova, Rubén Laplaza Solanas, Frédéric Célerse

Non-covalent bonding patterns are commonly harvested as a design principle in the field of catalysis, supramolecular chemistry, and functional materials to name a few. Yet, their computational description generally neglects finite temperature and environme ...

Invariance principles in the theory and computation of transport coefficients

Federico Grasselli

In this work, we elaborate on two recently discovered invariance principles, according to which transport coefficients are, to a large extent, independent of the microscopic definition of the densities and currents of the conserved quantities being transpo ...

Coherent energy exchange between carriers and phonons in Peierls-distorted bismuth unveiled by broadband XUV pulses

Iurii Timrov

In Peierls-distorted materials, photoexcitation leads to a strongly coupled transient response between structural and electronic degrees of freedom, always measured independently of each other. Here we use transient reflectivity in the extreme ultraviolet ...

Sparsely Observed Functional Time Series: Theory and Applications

Tomas Rubin

Functional time series is a temporally ordered sequence of not necessarily independent random curves. While the statistical analysis of such data has been traditionally carried out under the assumption of completely observed functional data, it may well ha ...

Phenanthrene-Fused-Quinoxaline as a Key Building Block for Highly Efficient and Stable Sensitizers in Copper-Electrolyte-Based Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

Michael Graetzel, Jacques-Edouard Moser, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Etienne Christophe Socie, Weiwei Zhang, Brian Irving Carlsen, Yameng Ren, Huiyun Jiang, Yinghui Wu

Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) based on Cu-II/I bipyridyl or phenanthroline complexes as redox shuttles have achieved very high open-circuit voltages (V-OC, more than 1 V). However, their short-circuit photocurrent density (J(SC)) has remained modest. ...

On design strategies for binary dielectric metasurfaces based on the Fourier modal method

Kévin Müller

Binary dielectric metasurfaces are arrays of sub-wavelength structures that act as a thin layer of artificial material. They are generally lossless and relatively simple to fabricate since only a single structuring step is required. By carefully designing ...
