Microscopic picture of paraelectric perovskites from structural prototypes

Nicola Marzari, Giovanni Pizzi, Boris Kozinsky, Michele Kotiuga

We highlight with first-principles molecular dynamics the persistence of intrinsic < 111 > Ti off-centerings for BaTiO3 in its cubic paraelectric phase. Intriguingly, these are inconsistent with the Pm (3) over barm space group often used to atomistically ...

Nonequilibrium quasistationary spin disordered state in ?-RuCl3

Zhe Wang

We photoexcite high-energy holon-doublon pairs as a way to alter the magnetic free energy landscape and resulting phase diagram of the frustrated honeycomb magnet ??-RuCl3. The pair recombination through multimagnon emission is tracked through the time evo ...

High sensitivity, incoherent differential imaging

Chiara Bonati

Microscopic visualisation of optically transparent samples has been a topic of interest for several decades. Features such as density or chemical composition can influence the optical phase of transmitted light, and phase contrast can reveal these structur ...

Effect of ZnO on the reactivity of cementitious systems

Andrea Eloisa Teixeira Pita

One of the biggest driving forces in cement research today is the mitigation of the CO2 emissions caused by its production. A potential solution to reduce the environmental impact is to replace cement with supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs). This ...

EUROfusion-theory and advanced simulation coordination (E-TASC): programme and the role of high performance computing

Laurent Villard, Jonathan Graves, Eric Serre

This paper is a written summary of an overview oral presentation given at the 1st Spanish Fusion High Performance Computer (HPC) Workshop that took place on the 27 November 2020 as an online event. Given that over the next few years ITER24 will move to its ...

All-optical switching in epsilon-near-zero asymmetric directional coupler

Qian Li, Jiaye Wu

We propose an all-optical switch based on an asymmetric directional coupler structure with epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) layer. The nonlinear optical properties the of ENZ layer are analyzed by hot-electron dynamics process, and the all-optical operating perform ...

Convection of water vapour in snowpacks

Michael Lehning, Varun Sharma, Mahdi Jafari

This paper studies numerically the convection of water vapour in snowpacks using an Eulerian-Eulerian two-phase approach. The convective water vapour transport in snow and its effects on snow density are often invoked to explain observed density profiles, ...

4-Port Microstrip planar resonator for multiband microwave material characterization applications

Anja Skrivervik, Sujith Raman

Planar microstrip resonators suitable for material characterization application are presented in this paper. The prototype consists of three resonators fed through four ports in a planar dielectric substrate without any additional resonators. The resonator ...

A Cryo-CMOS Wideband Quadrature Receiver With Frequency Synthesizer for Scalable Multiplexed Readout of Silicon Spin Qubits

Edoardo Charbon, Andrea Ruffino, Yatao Peng

In this article, a cryo-CMOS receiver integrated with a frequency synthesizer for scalable multiplexed readout of qubits is presented, focusing on radio frequency (RF) reflectometry readout of silicon-based semiconductor spin qubits/quantum dots. The propo ...

Time-Synchronization Attack Detection in Unbalanced Three-Phase Systems

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Mario Paolone, Marguerite Marie Nathalie Delcourt, Gyorgy Miklos Dan

Phasor measurement units (PMU) rely on an accurate time-synchronization to phase-align the phasors and timestamp the voltage and current phasor measurements. Among the symmetrical components computed from the phasors in three-phase systems, the standard pr ...

Networks of Coupled VO2 Oscillators for Neuromorphic Computing

Elisabetta Corti

Neuromorphic computing is a wide research field aimed to the realization of brain-inspired hardware, apt to tackle computation of unstructured data more efficiently than currently done with standard computational units. Oscillatory neural networks are know ...
