Wave-momentum shaping for moving objects in heterogeneous and dynamic media

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Bakhtiyar Orazbayev, Matthieu Francis Malléjac, Stefan Rotter

Light and sound waves can move objects through the transfer of linear or angular momentum, which has led to the development of optical and acoustic tweezers, with applications ranging from biomedical engineering to quantum optics. Although impressive manip ...

Antiferromagnetic droplet soliton driven by spin current

Mohammad Hamdi

We demonstrate that a spin current flowing through a nanocontact into a uniaxial antiferromagnet with first- and second-order anisotropy can excite a self-localized dynamic magnetic soliton, known as a spin-wave droplet in ferromagnets. The droplet nucleat ...

Heuristic Estimation of the Vacuum Energy Density of the Universe: Part II-Analysis Based on Frequency Domain Electromagnetic Radiation

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein

In Part I of this paper, an inequality satisfied by the vacuum energy density of the universe was derived using an indirect and heuristic procedure. The derivation is based on a proposed thought experiment, according to which an electron is accelerated to ...

Tunable acousto-optic optical frequency combs

Andrey Voloshin

Examination of various issues related to the generation and application of optical frequency combs (OFCs) is an important branch of modern optoelectronics. Some of the proposed OFC generation methods apply acousto-optic (AO) devices. The AO devices are use ...

Simulating energetic particle losses in JET plasmas with a reverse integration biasing scheme

Mario Ludovico Podesta, Matteo Vallar

An integrated energetic particle transport model has been constructed in JET plasmas constrained by experimental fast ion loss measurements. The model incorporates a synthetic fast ion loss detector identical to JET's thin-foil Faraday cup fast ion loss de ...

Pixel super-resolution with spatially entangled photons

Edoardo Charbon, Jiuxuan Zhao

Pixelation is common in quantum imaging systems and limit the image spatial resolution. Here, the authors introduce a pixel super-resolution approach based on measuring the full spatially-resolved joint probability distribution of spatially-entangled photo ...

Megapixel per second hardware efficient LiDAR based on microcombs

Tobias Kippenberg, Junqiu Liu, Maxim Karpov, Anton Lukashchuk

We show a novel architecture for massively parallel FMCW LiDAR based on multiheterodyne mixing of two triangular chirped soliton microcombs generated in integrated Si3N4 microresonators using a single laser source and a single coherent receiver. We demonst ...

Controlling Free Electrons with Optical Whispering-Gallery Modes

Tobias Kippenberg

We show that optical microcavities drive strong coherent modulations the in co-propagating free-electron beams, with sidebands spanning over 700eV from a sub-mu m-long interaction. The electrons probe the cavity's ringdown time and distinguish the modes sp ...

Rectified phase-matching equation for fiber mode converter gratings using two-mode interference

Soham Basu

The resonance wavelength, where a fiber mode converter grating written using periodic external perturbations achieves phase matching, is both a critical design parameter and a device parameter. However, a method to precisely predict the resonance wavelengt ...

Comparing spatio-temporal networks of intermittent avalanche events: Experiment, model, and empirical data

Anjali Bagunu Tarun

Relaxational processes in many complex systems often occur in the form of avalanches resulting from internal cascades from across the system scale. Here, we probe the space, time, and magnitude signatures of avalanching behavior using a network of temporal ...

Diffraction artefacts from twins and stacking faults, and the mirage of hexagonal, polytypes or other superstructures

Cyril Cayron

Recently, a hexagonal phase has been reported in high carbon steels in several studies. Here, we show that the electron microscopy results used in these studies were erroneously interpreted. The extra-spots in the diffraction patterns and the odd contrasts ...

Fast remote correlation experiments for 1H homonuclear decoupling in solids

David Lyndon Emsley, Pinelopi Moutzouri, Bruno Simões de Almeida

In 1H MAS spectra, the residual homogeneous broadening under MAS is due to a combination of higher-order shifts and splittings. We have recently shown how the two-dimensional anti-z-COSY experiment can be used for the removal of the splittings. However, th ...

Multipolar origin of electromagnetic transverse force resulting from two-wave interference

Olivier Martin, Karim Achouri, Andrei Kiselev

We propose a theoretical study on the electromagnetic forces resulting from the superposition of TE and TM plane waves interacting with a sphere. Specifically, we first show that, under such an illumination condition, the sphere is subjected to a force tra ...

Monitoring Spontaneous Charge-Density Fluctuations by Single-Molecule Diffraction of Quantum Light

Jérémy Raymond Jean Maurice Rouxel

Homodyne X-ray diffraction signals produced by classical light and classical detectors are given by the modulus square of the charge density in momentum space vertical bar sigma(q)vertical bar(2), missing its phase, which is required in order to invert the ...

Holographic imaging of electromagnetic fields via electron-light quantum interference

Fabrizio Carbone, Ivan Madan, Giovanni Maria Vanacore, Enrico Pomarico, Gabriele Berruto, Tatiana Latychevskaia, Tom Theodorus Antonius Lummen

Holography relies on the interference between a known reference and a signal of interest to reconstruct both the amplitude and the phase of that signal. With electrons, the extension of holography to the ultrafast time domain remains a challenge, although ...

Constant-pressure sound waves in non-Hermitian disordered media

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Hervé Lissek, Etienne Thierry Jean-Luc Rivet, Stefan Rotter

When waves impinge on a disordered material they are back-scattered and form a highly complex interference pattern. Suppressing any such distortions of a wave’s free propagation is a challenging task with many applications in a number of different discipli ...
