Bichromatic excitation of coherent Raman beats in rare-earth solids
Creators: name: Suter, Dieter

Publisher: name: The American Physical Society
Year: 1995
Subjects: subject: 530

description: In coherent Raman beat experiments a laser field coherently scatters off a material excitation that evolves under the internal Hamiltonian of the system. The Raman signal, which is observed as a beat signal between the test laser and the scattered Raman field, provides information on energy-level splittings and dephasing rates. We propose a modification of this technique, which allows, in contrast to the conventional method, the excitation of coherent Raman beats also in systems with large sublevel splittings and small oscillator strengths. For this purpose, we use a bichromatic laser field to excite the coherent superposition in the medium. We calculate the evolution of the coherence during the laser excitation analytically and discuss its dependence on various experimental parameters. We compare the theoretical results with experimental data from Pr3+:YAlO3.

description: Various device-based experiments have indicated that electron transfer in certain chiral molecules may be spin-dependent, a phenomenon known as the Chiral Induced Spin Selectivity (CISS) effect. However, due to the complexity of these devices and a lack of theoretical understanding, it is not always clear to what extent the chiral character of the molecules actually contributes to the magnetic-field-dependent signals in these experiments. To address this issue, we report here an electron transmission model that evaluates the role of the CISS effect in two-terminal and multi-terminal linear-regime electron transport experiments. Our model reveals that for the CISS effect, the chirality-dependent spin transmission is accompanied by a spin-flip electron reflection process. Furthermore, we show that more than two terminals are required in order to probe the CISS effect in the linear regime. In addition, we propose two types of multi-terminal nonlocal transport measurements that can distinguish the CISS effect from other magnetic-field-dependent signals. Our model provides an effective tool to review and design CISS-related transport experiments, and to enlighten the mechanism of the CISS effect itself.

description: Phytochemical investigation of the fruits of Crataegus pinnatifida Bunge led to the isolation of four pairs enantiomeric benzofuran lignans (1a/1b–4a/4b) including four undescribed compounds (1a, 2b, 3b and 4b). Their structures were determined by extensive spectroscopic methods and the absolute configurations were further determined by the comparison of experimental and calculated ECD spectra. All the enantiomeric lignans were evaluated for their inhibitory activities to tyrosinase. Among them, compound 4a showed moderate inhibition activity (IC50 = 0.54 mM).
Propagation of light in a J=1/2J'=1/2 resonant medium

Publisher: name: North-Holland

Subjects: subject: 530

description: The propagation of light in a resonant medium with multiple sublevels depends on the populations of and coherences between theses sublevels. We analyze the case of a J=1/2J'=1/2 transition with arbitrary ground-state polarization in the limit of a weak probe beam. It is found that transverse components of the ground-state orientation lead to a longitudinal component in the eigenpolarizations; a laser beam propagating through an optically pumped medium should therefore be displaced laterally.

description: Integration through public communication is challenged by the parallel tendencies toward the stratification and segmentation of the citizenry. The milieu concept takes up this notion: According to this meso-level approach, basic political orientations and political efficacy are aligned with specific information repertoires and modes of communication. Aggregations of individual data display group-specific patterns of heterogeneous political communication practices. First, this paper aims to characterise milieus within the German citizenry. Based on an online survey (n = 1488) and a hierarchical cluster analysis, we identified 12 distinct milieus. Second, we analyse the status of two citizen-level conditions of political integration. These include overlapping information repertoires and milieu-specific issue agendas. Overall, we argue for using social groups’ lifeworld-specific contexts to explain patterns of political and communicative behaviour. Our typology serves as the basis for future projects on lifeworld-shaped political media use, the processing of media content, and its effects.

description: We investigate stellar core collapse in scalar-tensor theory with a massive self-interacting scalar field. In these theories, strong long-lived inverse chirp signals could be induced during the stellar core collapse, which provides us with several potential smoking-gun signatures that could be found using current ground-based detectors. We show that the existence of self-interaction in the potential of the scalar field can significantly suppress spontaneous scalarization and the amplitude of the monopole gravitational-wave radiation. Moreover, this suppression due to self-interaction is frequency dependent and may be discernible in LIGO/Virgo's sensitive band. Therefore, self-interaction should be considered when constraining scalar-tensor coupling parameters with gravitational-wave detections. Alternatively, if such monopole gravitational-wave signals are detected, then one may be able to infer the presence of self-interaction.

description: We report a detailed experimental and theoretical investigation of the effect of residual strain, and strain relaxation, which manifests itself at the Si/SiO$_{2}$ interfaces in commercial silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafers. SOI material is made of a single-crystal silicon overlayer (SOL) on top of an insulator (buried SiO$_{2}$ layer) sitting on a handle silicon wafer. Infrared reflectivity spectra show that the buried SiO$_{2}$ layer relaxes continuously when thinning the SOL. At the same time the SOL surface roughness and the linewidth of optical phonons in Si near the Si/SiO$_2$ interface (probed by micro-Raman specroscopy) increase. In the as-delivered wafers, this comes from a slight expansion of Si on both sides of the buried SiO$_{2}$ layer which, conversely, is compressed. Thinning the SOL modifies these initial equilibrium conditions. To get quantitative results, we have modeled all our Raman spectra using a theory of inhomogeneous shift and broadening for optical phonons, which takes into account the phonon interaction with the static strain fluctuations. From the variation of linewidth versus interface distance, we have found that the mean squared strain continues to relax in the bulk of the wafer through a depth on the order of several $μm$. We also show that the SOL surface roughness is related to strain fluctuations near the Si/SiO$_2$ interfaces.

description: Purpose: To evaluate artifacts in optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A) images of multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and healthy controls. Materials and methods: This was a prospective cross-sectional study conducted at the Department of Neurology and the Wilmer Eye Institute at Johns Hopkins Hospital. Subjects included patients with an established diagnosis of MS and healthy volunteers. OCT-A was performed using Spectralis® OCT-A prototype, OCT2 (Heidelberg, Germany). The type and frequency of artifacts, the clinical factors associated with them, and their impact on vessel density measurements were assessed. Results: Overall, 385 images from 102 participants were analyzed. The majority of images (97.1%) had some degree of artifact. The most frequent was motion artifact (96.3%), followed by blinking (51.9%), and loss of focus (25.1%). MS patients were more likely to have any artifact vs. controls (OR [95% CI], 3.83 [1.12–12.92]), and were more likely to have motion artifacts with longer disease duration (OR [95% CI], 1.11 [1.03–1.20]) or history of optic neuritis (OR [95% CI], 4.24 [1.19–15.16]). The relative area occupied by the artifact was found to underestimate vessel density measurements in both MS patients and controls. Conclusions: Artifacts are common with OCT-A imaging using this particular Spectralis® OCT-A prototype and can impact quantitative vascular density metrics. Future studies should review images for artifacts before drawing definitive conclusions

description: The concept and synthesis approach for planar Compliant Fluidic Control Structures (CFCSs), monolithic flexible continua with embedded functional pores, is presented in this manuscript. Such structures are envisioned to find application in biomedicine as tunable microuidic devices for drug/nutrient delivery. The functional pores enlarge and/or contract upondeformation of the compliant structure in response to external stimuli, facilitating the regulated control of fluid/nutrient/drug transport. A thickness design variable based topology optimization problem is formulated to generate effective designs of these structures. An objective based on hydraulic diameter(s) is conceptualized, and it is extremized using a gradient based optimizer. Both geometrical and material nonlinearities are considered. The nonlinear behaviour of employed hyperelastic material is modeled via the Arruda-Boyce constitutive material model. Large-displacement finite element analysis is performed using the updated Lagrangian formulation in plane-stress setting. The proposed synthesis approach is applied to various CFCSs for a variety of fluidic control functionalities. The optimized designs of various CFCSs with single and/or multiple functional pores are fabricated via a Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) soft lithography process, using a high precision 3D printed mold and their performances are compared. with the numerical predictions.

description: We discuss the effects of so-called gluonic poles in twist-three hadronic matrix elements, as first considered by Qiu and Sterman, in the Drell-Yan process. These effects cannot be distinguished from those of time-reversal odd distribution functions, although time-reversal invariance is not broken by the presence of gluonic poles. Both gluonic poles and time-reversal odd distribution functions can lead to the same single spin asymmetries. We explicitly show the connection between gluonic poles and large distance gluon fields, identify the possible single spin asymmetries in the Drell-Yan process and discuss the role of intrinsic transverse momentum of the partons.

A Variational Approach to the Structure and Thermodynamics of Linear Polyelectrolytes with Coulomb and Screened Coulomb Interactions

description: A variational approach, based on a discrete representation of the chain, is used to calculate free energy and conformational properties in polyelectrolytes. The true bond and Coulomb potentials are approximated by a trial isotropic harmonic energy containing force constants between {\em all}monomer-pairs as variational parameters. By a judicious choice of representation and the use of incremental matrix inversion, an efficient and fast-convergent iterative algorithm is constructed, that optimizes the free energy. The computational demand scales as $N^3$ rather than $N^4$ as expected in a more naive approach. The method has the additional advantage that in contrast to Monte Carlo calculations the entropy is easily computed. An analysis of the high and low temperature limits is given. Also, the variational formulation is shown to respect the appropriate virial identities.The accuracy of the approximations introduced are tested against Monte Carlo simulations for problem sizes ranging from $N=20$ to 1024. Very good accuracy is obtained for chains with unscreened Coulomb interactions. The addition of salt is described through a screened Coulomb interaction, for which the accuracy in a certain parameter range turns out to be inferior to the unscreened case. The reason is that the harmonic variational Ansatz becomes less efficient with shorter range interactions. As a by-product a very efficient Monte Carlo algorithm was developed for comparisons, providing high statistics data for very large sizes -- 2048 monomers. The Monte Carlo results are also used to examine scaling properties, based on low-$T$ approximations to end-end and monomer-monomer separations. It is argued that the former increases faster than linearly with the number of bonds.

description: We investigate the structural and quantum transport properties of isotopically enriched $^{28}$Si/$^{28}$SiO$_2$ stacks deposited on 300 mm Si wafers in an industrial CMOS fab. Highly uniform films are obtained with an isotopic purity greater than 99.92\%. Hall-bar transistors with an equivalent oxide thickness of 17 nm are fabricated in an academic cleanroom. A critical density for conduction of $1.75\times10^{11}$ cm$^{-2}$ and a peak mobility of 9800 cm$^2$/Vs are measured at a temperature of 1.7 K. The $^{28}$Si/$^{28}$SiO$_2$ interface is characterized by a roughness of $Δ=0.4$ nm and a correlation length of $Λ=3.4$ nm. An upper bound for valley splitting energy of 480 $μ$eV is estimated at an effective electric field of 9.5 MV/m. These results support the use of wafer-scale $^{28}$Si/$^{28}$SiO$_2$ as a promising material platform to manufacture industrial spin qubits.

The general expressions for the transition probabilities in vacuum are reported. We then investigate some interesting consequences following from particular simple forms of the neutrino mass matrices, and for the envisaged scenarios we discuss in detail neutrino propagation in matter. Special emphasis is given to the problem of occurrence of resonant enhancement of active-active and active-sterile neutrino oscillations in a medium. The peculiar novel features related to the Dirac-Majorana nature of neutrinos are particularly pointed out.

description: We develop a method for obtaining exact time-dependent solutions in Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity coupled to non-conformal matter and study consequences for $NAdS_2$ holography. We study holographic quenches in which we find that the black hole mass increases. A semi-holographic model composed of an infrared $NAdS_2$ holographic sector representing the mutual strong interactions of trapped impurities confined at a spatial point is proposed. The holographic sector couples to the position of a displaced impurity acting as a self-consistent boundary source. This effective $0+1-$dimensional description has a total conserved energy. Irrespective of the initial velocity of the particle, the black hole mass initially increases, but after the horizon runs away to infinity in the physical patch, the mass vanishes in the long run. The total energy is completely transferred to the kinetic energy or the self-consistent confining potential energy of the impurity. For initial velocities below a critical value determined by the mutual coupling, the black hole mass changes sign in finite time. Above this critical velocity, the initial condition of the particle can be retrieved from the $SL(2,R)$ invariant exponent that governs the exponential growth of the bulk gravitational $SL(2,R)$ charges at late time.

description: Low energy properties of half-filled Fibonacci Hubbard models are studied by weak coupling renormalization group and density matrix renormalization group method. In the case of diagonal modulation, weak Coulomb repulsion is irrelevant and the system behaves as a free Fibonacci chain, while for strong Coulomb repulsion, the charge sector is a Mott insulator and the spin sector behaves as a uniform Heisenberg antiferromagnetic chain. The off-diagonal modulation always drives the charge sector to a Mott insulator and the spin sector to a Fibonacci antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain.

description: We apply a quasistatic nonlinear model for nonsimple viscoelastic materials at a finite-strain setting in the Kelvin's-Voigt's rheology to derive a viscoelastic plate model of von Kármán type. We start from time-discrete solutions to a model of three-dimensional viscoelasticity where the viscosity stress tensor complies with the principle of time-continuous frame-indifference. Combining the derivation of nonlinear plate theory by Friesecke, James and Müller, and the abstract theory of gradient flows in metric spaces by Sandier and Serfaty we perform a dimension-reduction from 3D to 2D and identify weak solutions of viscoelastic form of von Kármán plates.

description: Excerpts from the report Summary: The study evaluated the protective capability of ten commonly used 12-egg cartons at both the originating packing plant and at shipping destination. Cartons consisted of six plastic foam (F) and four molded pulp (P) designs. Two commonly used types of master containers were used for packing and shipping the egg cartons: 15-dozen baskets (wire or plastic) and 30-dozen fiberboard cases. Research took place in 7 States during each of the seasons of the year, consisted of 42 completed truck shipments, and lasted over a period of 2-1/2 years. Egg grading was done by State-licensed inspectors, and was performed in 8 large packing plants, 9 central distribution warehouses, and 11 retail supermarkets. After information on eggshell damage was collected, data were subjected to analysis of variance and Duncan's multiple range test to separate means. Statistical significance was at the 5-percent level of probability.

description: The Nd-doped cuprate La_{2-y-x}Nd_ySr_xCuO_4 displays a first-order phase transition at T_d (= 74 K for x=0.10, y = 0.60) to a low-temperature tetragonal (LTT) phase. A magnetic field H applied || the a-axis leads to an increase in T_d, whereas T_d is decreased when H || c. These effects show that magnetic ordering involving both Nd and Cu spins plays a key role in driving the LTO-LTT transition. Related anisotropic effects are observed in the uniform susceptibility and the in-plane magnetoresistance.

description: Purpose: Adhesions between the extraocular muscles and surrounding tissues pose a main cause of failure of strabismus reoperations. Amniotic membrane (AM) transplantation during extraocular muscle surgery, to prevent the formation of adhesions, has been a subject of research during the past decade. This review aims to determine the value, indications, and tips on usage of AM transplantation during strabismus surgery. Materials and methods: All references cited in PubMed in English were searched using the key words: amniotic membrane strabismus or amniotic membrane extraocular muscles, and a brief summary of these was described. In addition, certain articles were chosen to provide introductory information on wound healing and fibrosis, AM properties and how it works after transplantation, and AM processing and preservation. Results: AM used for transplantation during extraocular muscle surgery may be cryopreserved, dried, or fresh. It may be oriented with its stroma or epithelium towards the muscle. It may or may not be fixed with sutures. What were the best choices? Various studies attempted to answer these questions. Many of the studies reviewed, however, were inconclusive or contradictory. Fresh AM seemed effective, but carried a risk of transmission of communicable diseases. Dried membrane was not of value in preventing adhesions. Histopathologically, cryopreserved membrane prevented the development of adhesions in the region of its presence, regardless of its orientation, and without the need for suture fixation. To accentuate this histopathological effect during clinical practice, it was recommended to utilize the largest segment possible of cryopreserved membrane and limit its usage to cases where adhesions are expected to be the main cause of failure of strabismus surgery. Conclusion: Cryopreserved AM transplantation was safe and histopathologically effective in preventing adhesions. This effect was, however, less pronounced clinically. Its use during strabismus reoperations is merited if previous recommendations and precautions are considered.

description: We develop and implement a numerical model to simulate the effect of photovoltaic asphalt on reducing the concentration of nitrogen monoxide due to the presence of heavy traffic in an urban environment. The contributions in this paper are threefold: we model and simulate the spread and breakdown of pollution in an urban environment, we provide a parameter estimation process that can be used to find missing parameters, and finally, we train and compare this simulation with different data sets. We analyze the results and provide an outlook on further research.

description: In the Bloch-wave approach to estimate the baryon-number-violating scattering cross section in the standard electroweak theory in the laboratory, we clarify the relation between the single sphaleron barrier and multiple (near periodic) sphaleron barrier cases. We explain how a realistic consideration modifies/corrects the idealized Bloch wave and the resonant tunneling approximation. The basic approach is in part analogous to the well-known triple-$α$ process to form carbon in nucleosynthesis.

description: DGLAP evolution equations may be presented in a form completely analogous to the Boltzmann equation. This provides a natural proof of the positivity of the spin-dependent parton distributions, provided the initial distributions at $Q^2_0$ are also positive. In addition, the evolution to $Q^2 < Q^2_0$ may violate positivity, providing therefore a 'time arrow'. The positivity condition is just $|ΔP_{ij} (z)| \leq P_{ij} (z) $ for $z < 1$ for all types of partons, while the $'+'$prescription and terms containing $δ(1-z)$ do not affect positivity. This method allows one to complete immediately the existing proof of Soffer inequality at leading and next-to-leading order.

description: Wireless power transfer via a dielectric loaded multi-moded split cavity resonator (SCR) is proposed. Unlike conventional inductive resonant coupling, the scheme enables the control of both the real and imaginary parts of the transfer impedance. It is demonstrated through measurements that the inclusion of dielectric resonators (DRs) tuned to the SCR $TE_{012}$ mode, significantly enhances the system figure of merit and optimal efficiency. The effect of the DRs is shown to be related to the resonant coupling of the DRs $TE_{01δ}$ and SCR modes, resulting in an electromagnetic induced transparency-like window. An efficiency of 70% is achieved when the transfer distance is 7 cm, or half wavelength. Additionally, it was shown that the efficiency is above 40% over a relatively wide bandwidth and a wide range of optimum load impedance.

description: The recent past has highlighted the influential role of social networks and online media in shaping public debate on current affairs and political issues. This paper is focused on studying the role of politically-motivated actors and their strategies for influencing and manipulating public opinion online: partisan media, state-backed propaganda, and post-truth politics. In particular, we present quantitative research on the presence and impact of these three `Ps' in online Twitter debates in two contexts: (i) the run up to the UK EU membership referendum (`Brexit'); and (ii) the information operations of Russia-backed online troll accounts. We first compare the impact of highly partisan versus mainstream media during the Brexit referendum, specifically comparing tweets by half a million `leave' and `remain' supporters. Next, online propaganda strategies are examined, specifically left- and right-wing troll accounts. Lastly, we study the impact of misleading claims made by the political leaders of the leave and remain campaigns. This is then compared to the impact of the Russia-backed partisan media and propaganda accounts during the referendum. In particular, just two of the many misleading claims made by politicians during the referendum were found to be cited in 4.6 times more tweets than the 7,103 tweets related to Russia Today and Sputnik and in 10.2 times more tweets than the 3,200 Brexit-related tweets by the Russian troll accounts.
