description: This study assessed the evolution in sanitary services and water quality in the watershed of Santos and São VicenteEstuary from 2004 onwards. Results show evolution in services offered to the population after conclusionof the first phase of Onda Limpa Program, when sewage treated at the secondary level evolved from 11% to14% of population, the pre-conditioning followed by submarine outfall 49% to 53% and population without asewerage system fell 40% to 33%, being that for the latter 41% are in irregular areas not subjected to coverage.Among the four most populous sub-basins, each has about 90,000 people without a sewerage system, includingurbanized and irregular areas. This factor, added to high level of annual rainfall still harms the water quality onthe region.

description: We present a simple model for the shape of the distribution function of galaxy peculiar velocities. We show how both nonlinear and linear theory terms combine to produce a distribution which has an approximately Gaussian core with exponential wings. The model is easily extended to study how the statistic depends on the type of particle used to trace the velocity field (dark matter particles, dark matter haloes, galaxies), and on the density of the environment in which the test particles are. Comparisons with simulations suggest that our model is accurate. We also show that the evolution of the peculiar velocities depends on the local, rather than the global density. Since clusters populate denser regions on average, using cluster velocities with the linear theory scaling may lead to an overestimate of the global value of Omega. Conversely, using linear theory with the global value of Omega to scale cluster velocities from the initial to the present time results in an underestimate of their true velocities. In general, however, the directions of motions of haloes are rather well described by linear theory. Our results help to simplify models of redshift-space distortions considerably.

description: This document is a Section 106 transmittal letter from the 30th Space Wing (30 SW) of the United States Space Force (USSF) at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California to the Santa Ynez Band of Chumash Indians (SYBCI) to continue consultation for the proposed Ground Based Strategic Deterrent (GBSD) Test Program that would develop and test a new ICBM system to modernize the United States land-based nuclear arsenal for the purposes of replacing the nation's existing Minuteman II ICBM system. 30 SW determined that the proposed GBSD Test Program is an undertaking subject to compliance with Section 106 [codified at 54 USC 306108] of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, as amended [54 USC 300101 et seq: Historic Preservation] and as such, will comply with Section 106 using the implementing regulations [Title 36 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 800] by continuing consultation with the SYBCI. Details of the reasonable and good-faith cultural resources investigation carried out by 30 SW are provided as an attachment to this letter. 30 SW reached a Section 106 finding of adverse effect to historic properties for this undertaking and requests that the Tribe express comments or concerns they may have about cultural resources with regard to the proposed undertaking, and the resolution of adverse effects to four resources as described in this letter.

description: We present a method to certify the presence of Bell correlations in experimentally observed statistics, and to obtain new Bell inequalities. Our approach is based on relaxing the conditions defining the set of correlations obeying a local hidden variable model, yielding a convergent hierarchy of semidefinite programs (SdP's). Because the size of these SdP's is independent of the number of parties involved, this technique allows to characterize correlations in many-body systems. As an example, we illustrate our method with the experimental data presented in [Science 352, 441 (2016)]

description: Allowing machines to choose whether to kill humans would be devastating for world peace and security. But how do we equip machines with the ability to learn ethical or even moral choices? In this study, we show that applying machine learning to human texts can extract deontological ethical reasoning about “right” and “wrong” conduct. We create a template list of prompts and responses, such as “Should I [action]?”, “Is it okay to [action]?”, etc. with corresponding answers of “Yes/no, I should (not).” and "Yes/no, it is (not)." The model's bias score is the difference between the model's score of the positive response (“Yes, I should”) and that of the negative response (“No, I should not”). For a given choice, the model's overall bias score is the mean of the bias scores of all question/answer templates paired with that choice. Specifically, the resulting model, called the Moral Choice Machine (MCM), calculates the bias score on a sentence level using embeddings of the Universal Sentence Encoder since the moral value of an action to be taken depends on its context. It is objectionable to kill living beings, but it is fine to kill time. It is essential to eat, yet one might not eat dirt. It is important to spread information, yet one should not spread misinformation. Our results indicate that text corpora contain recoverable and accurate imprints of our social, ethical and moral choices, even with context information. Actually, training the Moral Choice Machine on different temporal news and book corpora from the year 1510 to 2008/2009 demonstrate the evolution of moral and ethical choices over different time periods for both atomic actions and actions with context information. By training it on different cultural sources such as the Bible and the constitution of different countries, the dynamics of moral choices in culture, including technology are revealed. That is the fact that moral biases can be extracted, quantified, tracked, and compared across cultures and over time.

description: Iron is required for microbial growth and proliferation. To survive in low-iron environments, some microorganisms secrete ferric iron chelators called siderophores. Siderophore biosynthesis occurs via two pathways: the non-ribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) pathway and the NRPS-independent siderophore (NIS) synthetase pathway. NIS enzymes function by adenylating a carboxylic acid substrate, typically citrate, or a derivative, followed by nucleophilic capture of an amine or alcohol and displacement of a citryl intermediate. In this review, we summarize recent advances in NIS biochemistry with a particular focus on structural biology and confirm the classification of NIS enzymes into Types A, A’, B, and C based on substrate specificity. Based on a phylogenetic analysis, we also propose a new subclass of NIS enzymes, Type C’, responsible for dimerization and macrocyclization of complex and substituted amine or amide intermediates. Finally, we describe the role of NIS enzymes in virulence of pathogenic microbes and discuss NIS inhibitors as potential anti-microbial agents.

We find a first order transition from superfluid to normal phase. The critical chemical potential asymmetry for this phase transition is delta_mu_c= 2/(mu epsilon)*(1-0.467ε), where epsilon=4-d is the expansion parameter and 'mu' is the average chemical potential of the two fermion species. Stability of the superfluid phase in the presence of supercurrents is also studied.

description: In this article we extend the theory of ultra-long-range giant dipole molecules, formed by an atom in a giant dipole state and a ground-state alkali atom, by angular-momentum couplings known from recent works on Rydberg molecules. In addition to $s$-wave scattering, the next higher order of $p$-wave scattering in the Fermi-pseudopotential describing the binding mechanism is considered. Furthermore, the singlet and triplet channels of the scattering interaction as well as angular-momentum couplings such as hyperfine interaction and Zeeman interactions are included. Within the framework of Born--Oppenheimer theory, potential energy surfaces are calculated in both first-order perturbation theory and exact diagonalization. Besides the known pure triplet states, mixed-spin character states are obtained, opening up a whole new landscape of molecular potentials. We determine exact binding energies and wave functions of the nuclear rotational and vibrational motion numerically from the various potential energy surfaces.

description: Aims. The purpose of this paper is to detect and investigate the nature of long-term radial velocity (RV) variations of K-type giants and to confirm planetary companions around the stars. Methods. We have conducted two planet search programs by precise RV measurement using the 1.8 m telescope at Bohyunsan Optical Astronomy Observatory (BOAO) and the 1.88 m telescope at Okayama Astrophysical Observatory (OAO). The BOAO program searches for planets around 55 early K giants. The OAO program is looking for 190 G-K type giants. Results. In this paper, we report the detection of long-period RV variations of three K giant stars, HD 40956, HD 111591, and HD 113996. We investigated the cause of the observed RV variations and conclude the substellar companions are most likely the cause of the RV variations. The orbital analyses yield P = 578.6 $\pm$ 3.3 d, $m$ sin $i$ = 2.7 $\pm$ 0.6 $M_{\rm{J}}$, $a$ = 1.4 $\pm$ 0.1 AU for HD 40956; P = 1056.4 $\pm$ 14.3 d, $m$ sin $i$ = 4.4 $\pm$ 0.4 $M_{\rm{J}}$, $a$ = 2.5 $\pm$ 0.1 AU for HD 111591; P = 610.2 $\pm$ 3.8 d, $m$ sin $i$ = 6.3 $\pm$ 1.0 $M_{\rm{J}}$, $a$ = 1.6 $\pm$ 0.1 AU for HD 113996.

description: A self quenching streamer (SQS), or limited streamer mode has been studied in single wire chambers with cross-sections 12x12 mm and wire diameters 15, 25 and 50 microns. Chambers were filled with either pure dimethyl ether (DME) or isobutane gases and irradiated with Gd-148 alpha and Fe-55 x-ray sources. Clear transitions from a proportional to 100% SQS mode were observed on all three diameter wires with both gases irradiated with alpha particles. Double SQS discharges due to inclined tracks observed in DME gas allowed an estimation of a streamer size along the wire of less than 1 mm. The second SQS discharge appears less than 1 mm from the first within about 500 ns. Charge spectra obtained with DME irradiated with Fe-55 x-rays might also be interpreted as a transition to a SQS mode, although no direct evidence of that was seen in the observed pulse shapes.
Realistic finite temperature simulations of magnetic systems using quantum statistics

description: We have performed realistic atomistic simulations at finite temperatures using Monte Carlo and atomistic spin dynamics simulations incorporating quantum (Bose-Einstein) statistics. The description is much improved at low temperatures compared to classical (Boltzmann) statistics normally used in these kind of simulations, while at higher temperatures the classical statistics are recovered. This corrected low-temperature description is reflected in both magnetization and the magnetic specific heat, the latter allowing for improved modeling of the magnetic contribution to free energies. A central property in the method is the magnon density of states at finite temperatures and we have compared several different implementations for obtaining it. The method has no restrictions regarding chemical and magnetic order of the considered materials. This is demonstrated by applying the method to elemental ferromagnetic systems, including Fe and Ni, as well as Fe-Co random alloys and the ferrimagnetic system GdFe$_3$ .

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

Subjects: lucid dreaming

description: Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit ist es einen Überblick über den aktuellen Wissensstand zum Thema „luzides Träumen“ zu verschaffen. Ein Schwerpunkt liegt dabei auf den Anwendungsgebieten und der Trainierbarkeit des luziden Träumens. Dabei steht vor allem der wissenschaftliche Kenntnisstand mit Beleg von Studien im Vordergrund und wird bewertet. Da die Studienlage zur vorliegenden Thematik sehr umfangreich ist, sollen in dieser Kurzzusammenfassung nur die wesentlichen Aspekte genannt werden. Luzides Träumen kann durch verschiedene Techniken induziert, also beeinflusst oder erlernt, werden, durch kognitive Techniken, externe Stimulation und unter Medikamenteneinfluss. Einzelne Techniken sind miteinander kombinierbar, eine herausstechende Form kann nicht nachgewiesen werden, da die Anwender individuell auf die jeweiligen Techniken ansprechen. Anwendungsgebiete sind vor allem Feinmotorik und Unterstützung in der Beseitigung von psychischen Störungen, wie Albtraumbewältigung, begleitende Behandlung klinischer Depressionen, außerdem führen luzide Träume zu Verbesserung von Schlafstörungen und psychologischer Erleichterung bei Narkolepsie-Patienten. Ebenfalls gibt es Ansätze zu bidirektionaler Kommunikation während des luziden Träumens.

description: We write the correlation function of dark matter particles, xi(r), as the sum of two terms - one which accounts for nonlinear evolution, and dominates on small scales, and another which is essentially the term from linear theory, and dominates on large scales. We use models of the number and spatial distribution of haloes and halo density profiles to describe the nonlinear term and its evolution. The result provides a good description of the evolution of xi(r) in simulations. We then use this decomposition to provide simple and accurate models of how the single particle velocity dispersion evolves with time, and how the first and second moments of the pairwise velocity distribution depend on scale. The key idea is to use the simple physics of linear theory on large scales, the simple physics of the virial theorem on small scales, and our model for the correlation function to tell us how to weight the two types of contributions (linear and nonlinear) to the pairwise velocity statistics. When incorporated into the streaming model, our results will allow a simple accurate description of redshift-space distortions over the entire range of linear to highly nonlinear regimes.

description: Introduction: Parental socioeconomic status has been proposed to have an influence on childhood cancer mortality even in high-income countries. Our study investigated the influence of parental socioeconomic factors on childhood cancer mortality. Material and methods: We identified 4437 patients diagnosed with cancer under the age of 20 from 1990 to 2009 and their parents from the Finnish cancer and central population registers. Information on death from primary cancer during five-year follow-up and parental socioeconomic factors was obtained from Statistics Finland. Poisson regression modeling was used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) for factors related to cause-specific mortality and recursive tree based survival analysis to identify important risk factors and interactions. Results: Mortality was lower in the highest quartile of combined parental disposable income (HR 0.68, CI 95% 0.52–0.89) compared to the lowest quartile. In the most recent diagnostic period from 2000 to 2009, highest attained education of either parent being post-secondary predicted lower mortality (HR 0.73, CI 95% 0.60–0.88) compared to parents who had attained primary or lower education. Conclusion: Despite high quality public health care and comprehensive social security, both high parental income and education were associated with lower mortality after childhood cancer. Lower health literacy and financial pressures limiting treatment adherence may explain higher mortality in children with less educated parents and parents with lower income. Motivation and support during treatment and follow-up period is needed concerning the families of these patients.

description: In studies on intermediate- and high-resolution spectra of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), some objects exhibit narrow Na-I D absorptions often blueshifted with respect to the rest wavelength within the host galaxy. The absence of these in other SNe Ia may reflect that the explosions have different progenitors: blueshifted Na-I D features might be explained by the outflows of 'single-degenerate' systems (binaries of a white dwarf with a non-degenerate companion). In this work, we search for systematic differences among SNe Ia for which the Na-I D characteristics have been clearly established in previous studies. We perform an analysis of the chemical abundances in the outer ejecta of 13 'spectroscopically normal' SNe Ia (five of which show blueshifted Na lines), modelling time series of photospheric spectra with a radiative-transfer code. We find only moderate differences between 'blueshifted-Na', 'redshifted-Na' and 'no-Na' SNe Ia, so that we can neither conclusively confirm a 'one-scenario' nor a 'two-scenario' theory for normal SNe Ia. Yet, some of the trends we see should be further studied using larger observed samples: Models for blueshifted-Na SNe tend to show higher photospheric velocities than no-Na SNe, corresponding to a higher opacity of the envelope. Consistently, blueshifted-Na SNe show hints of a somewhat larger iron-group content in the outer layers with respect to the no-Na subsample (and also to the redshifted-Na subsample). This agrees with earlier work where it was found that the light curves of no-Na SNe - often appearing in elliptical galaxies - are narrower, i.e. decline more rapidly.

description: The total star formation budget of galaxies consists of the sum of the unobscured star formation, as observed in the rest-frame ultraviolet (UV), together with the obscured component that is absorbed and re-radiated by dust grains in the infrared. We explore how the fraction of obscured star formation depends on stellar mass for mass-complete samples of galaxies at $01$. For log(M/M$_{\odot}$)$>$10.5, $>$90\% of star formation is obscured at all redshifts. We also show that at fixed total SFR, $f_{\mathrm{obscured}}$ is lower at higher redshift. At fixed mass, high-redshift galaxies are observed to have more compact sizes and much higher star formation rates, gas fractions and hence surface densities (implying higher dust obscuration), yet we observe no redshift evolution in $f_{\mathrm{obscured}}$ with stellar mass. This poses a challenge to theoretical models to reproduce, where the observed compact sizes at high redshift seem in tension with lower dust obscuration.

Pflegende Angehörige im Kontext der Inanspruchnahme ambulanter Unterstützungsangebote bei der häuslichen Pflege eines chronisch pflegebedürftigen älteren Menschen

description: Ein Großteil der pflegebedürftigen Personen in Deutschland wird im häuslichen Umfeld von ihren Angehörigen gepflegt. Um die häusliche Pflege aufrechtzuerhalten, stehen verschiedene ambulante Unterstützungsangebote zur Verfügung. Jedoch wurden in der Forschung bisher geringe Nutzungsraten berichtet. In der vorliegenden Dissertation wird zum einen die aktuelle und in Zukunft gewünschte Inanspruchnahme von acht ambulanten Entlastungsangeboten, die auf regelmäßige Nutzung abzielen, betrachtet. Zum anderen werden Faktoren, die mit der Nutzung des ambulanten Pflegedienstes in Zusammenhang stehen, untersucht. Im Rahmen der Querschnittstudie „Benefits of Being a Caregiver“ wurden pflegende Angehörige von Pflegebedürftigen zur Pflegesituation, Pflegebelastung sowie Nutzung der ambulanten Unterstützungsangebote befragt. Es zeigte sich, dass pflegende Angehörige trotz hoher Belastung und des Wunsches nach Entlastung selten auf ambulante Unterstützungsangebote zugreifen. Zwischen der gegenwärtigen und der künftig gewünschten Nutzung gibt es eine Diskrepanz. Eine Ausnahme stellt der ambulante Pflegedienst dar, das am häufigsten genutzte Angebot. Der Wunsch der Nicht-Nutzer überwiegt bei den meisten Angeboten die tatsächliche Nutzung um ein Vielfaches. Zudem waren Angehörige von Pflegebedürftigen mit Demenz stärker belastet und nutzen daher häufiger direkt entlastende Angebote. Die Nutzung des ambulanten Pflegedienstes war häufiger bei steigenden Pflegebedarf der Pflegebedürftigen und bei Angehörigen, die erstens nicht in partnerschaftlicher Beziehung zum Pflegebedürftigen standen und zweitens mit der Pflege weniger zurechtkamen. Obwohl pflegende Angehörige den Bedarf und Wunsch nach Entlastung formulieren, werden ambulante Unterstützungsangebote lediglich von einer Minderheit genutzt. Jedoch möchte mehr als die Hälfte der Angehörigen, die bisher keine Angebote nutzten, künftig mindestens zwei in Anspruch nehmen. Der ambulante Pflegedienst wird insbesondere von Töchtern und Schwiegertöchtern genutzt, die nicht in räumlicher Nähe leben und häufig noch erwerbstätig sind. Es wurde deutlich, dass der Bedarf nach formeller Entlastung vor der eigentlichen Inanspruchnahme spürbar wird. Zudem nehmen die Vereinbarkeitskonflikte aufgrund von Erwerbstätigkeit oder Kindererziehung bei gleichzeitiger Pflege zu. Daher sollten pflegende Angehörige frühzeitig und individuell beraten werden, um den Pflegeprozess gut zu organisieren und weitere Schritte konkret zu planen. Politisch sollten alle Anstrengungen unternommen werden für die Anwerbung und Ausbildung der Fachkräfte, um die erforderlichen Angebote (weiterhin) verfügbar und erreichbar zu machen.

description: We construct systematic expansions around four and two spatial dimensions for a Fermi gas near the unitarity limit. Near four spatial dimensions such a Fermi gas can be understood as a weakly interacting system of fermionic and bosonic degrees of freedom. To the leading and next-to-leading orders in the expansion over epsilon=4-d, with d being the dimensionality of space, we calculate the thermodynamic quantities and the fermion quasiparticle spectrum, both at unitarity and around the unitarity point. Then the phase structure of the polarized Fermi gas in the unitary regime is studied in the epsilon expansion. At unitarity the unpolarized superfluid state and a fully polarized normal state are separated by a first order phase transition. However, on the BEC side of the unitarity point, in a certain range of the two-body binding energy, these two phases are separated in the phase diagram by more exotic phases, including gapless superfluid phases with one or two Fermi surfaces and a superfluid phase with a spatially varying condensate. We also show that the unitary Fermi gas near two spatial dimensions is weakly interacting, and calculate the thermodynamic quantities and the fermion quasiparticle spectrum in the expansion over \barε=d-2.

New Realisations of Minimal Models and the Structure of W-Strings

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: The quantization of a free boson whose momentum satisfies a cubic constraint leads to a $c=\ha$ conformal field theory with a BRST symmetry. The theory also has a $W_\infty $ symmetry in which all the generators except the stress-tensor are BRST-exact and so topological. The BRST cohomology includes states of conformal dimensions $0,\si,\ha$, together with \lq copies' of these states obtained by acting with picture-changing and screening operators. The 3-point and 4-point correlation functions agree with those of the Ising model, suggesting that the theory is equivalent to the critical Ising model. At tree level, the $W_3$ string can be viewed as an ordinary $c=26$ string whose conformal matter sector includes this realisation of the Ising model. The two-boson $W_3$ string is equivalent to the Ising model coupled to two-dimensional quantum gravity. Similar results apply for other W-strings and minimal models.

description: We present long-baseline ALMA observations of the strong gravitational lens H-ATLAS J090740.0-004200 (SDP.9), which consists of an elliptical galaxy at $z_{\mathrm{L}}=0.6129$ lensing a background submillimeter galaxy into two extended arcs. The data include Band 6 continuum observations, as well as CO $J$=6$-$5 molecular line observations, from which we measure an updated source redshift of $z_{\mathrm{S}}=1.5747$. The image morphology in the ALMA data is different from that of the HST data, indicating a spatial offset between the stellar, gas, and dust component of the source galaxy. We model the lens as an elliptical power law density profile with external shear using a combination of archival HST data and conjugate points identified in the ALMA data. Our best model has an Einstein radius of $θ_{\mathrm{E}}=0.66\pm0.01$ and a slightly steeper than isothermal mass profile slope. We search for the central image of the lens, which can be used constrain the inner mass distribution of the lens galaxy including the central supermassive black hole, but do not detect it in the integrated CO image at a 3$σ$ rms level of 0.0471 Jy km s$^{-1}$.

Steady-state conduction-driven temperature profile in clusters of galaxies

description: The temperature profile (TP) of the intracluster medium (ICM) is of primeval importance for deriving the dynamical parameters of the largest equilibrium systems known in the universe, in particular their total mass profile. Analytical models of the ICM often assume that the ICM is isothermal or parametrize the TP with a polytropic index. This parameter is ajusted to observations, but has in fact poor physical meaning for values other than 1 or 5/3, when considering monoatomic gases. In this article, I present a theoretical model of a relaxed cluster where the TP is instead structured by electronic thermal conduction. Neglecting cooling and heating terms, the stationnary energy conservation equation reduces to a 2nd order differential equation, whose resolution requires two boundary conditions, taken here as the inner radius and the ratio between inner and outer temperature. Once these two constants are chosen, the TP has a fixed analytical expression, which reproduces nicely the observed ``universal'' TP obtained by Markevitch et al. (1998) from ASCA data. Using observed X-ray surface brightnesses for two hot clusters with spatially resolved TP, the local polytropic index and the hot gas fraction profile are predicted and compare very well with ASCA observations (Markevitch et al 1999). Moreover, the total density profile derived from observed X-ray surface brightness, hydrostatic equilibrium and the conduction-driven TP is very well fit by three analytical profiles found to describe the structure of galactic or cluster halos in numerical simulations of collisionless matter (Hernquist, 1991; Navarro et al. 1995, 1997; Burkert 1995).

description: The canonical theory of $N=1$ supergravity is applied to Bianchi class A spatially homogeneous cosmologies. The full set of quantum constraints are then solved with the possible ordering ambiguity taken into account by introducing a free parameter. The wave functions are explicitly given for all the Bianchi class A models in a unified way. Some comments are made on the Bianchi type IX cases.

description: The conductance of a single metal-molecule-metal junction depends critically on the conformations of the molecule. In the simple case of a biphenyl, two phenyl rings linked together by a single C-C bond, the conductance is expected to depend on the relative twist angle between the two rings, with the planar conformation having the highest conductance. A number of different techniques have measured the conductance of metal-molecule(s)-metal junctions. However, the conductance variation from junction to junction has made it difficult to verify even the simplest predictions about how molecules should behave in unimolecular devices. Here, using amine link groups to form single molecule junctions, we show a clear correlation between molecule conformation and junction conductance in a series of seven biphenyl molecules with different ring substitutions that alter the twist angle of the molecules. We find that the conductance for the series decreases with increasing twist angle, consistent with a cosine squared relation predicted theoretically for transport through pi-conjugated systems.

Gigantic transmission band edge resonance in periodic stacks of anisotropic layers

Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Optics (physics.optics)

description: We consider Fabry-Perot cavity resonance in periodic stacks of anisotropic layers with misaligned in-plane anisotropy at the frequency close to a photonic band edge. We show that in-plane dielectric anisotropy can result in a dramatic increase in field intensity and group delay associated with the transmission resonance. The field enhancement appears to be proportional to forth degree of the number N of layers in the stack. By contrast, in common periodic stacks of isotropic layers, those effects are much weaker and proportional to N^2. Thus, the anisotropy allows to drastically reduce the size of the resonance cavity with similar performance. The key characteristic of the periodic arrays with the gigantic transmission resonance is that the dispersion curve omega(k)at the photonic band edge has the degenerate form Delta(omega) ~ Delta(k)^4, rather than the regular form Delta(omega) ~ Delta(k)^2. This can be realized in specially arranged stacks of misaligned anisotropic layers. The degenerate band edge cavity resonance with similar outstanding properties can also be realized in a waveguide environment, as well as in a linear array of coupled multimode resonators, provided that certain symmetry conditions are in place.
