1.3 μm wavelength tunable single-mode laser arrays based on slots
(2021)Two twelve-channel arrays based on surface-etched slot gratings, one with non-uniformly spaced slots and another with uniformly spaced slots are presented for laser operation in the O-band. A wavelength tuning range greater ... -
1/f noise in MgO double-barrier magnetic tunnel junctions
(2011)Low frequency noise has been investigated in MgO double-barrier magnetic tunnel junctions (DMTJs) with tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) ratios up to 250% at room temperature. The noise shows a 1/f frequency spectrum and ... -
1/f noise in the half-metallic oxides CrO2, Fe3O4, and La2/3Sr1/3MnO3
(American Physical Society, 1999)The excess low-frequency (1/f) electrical noise of three representative half-metallic oxides, CrO2, Fe3O4, and La2/3Sr1/3MnO3, has been studied as a function of the temperature (5?300 K) and a magnetic field (up to 12 T). ... -
The 2020 magnetism roadmap
(2020)Andreas Berger CICnanoGUNE BRTA Following the success and relevance of the 2014 and 2017 Magnetism Roadmap articles, this 2020 Magnetism Roadmap edition takes yet another timely look at newly relevant and highly active ... -
2D foams above the jamming transition: Deformation matters
(2017)Jammed soft matter systems are often modelled as dense packings of overlapping soft spheres, thus ignoring particle deformation. For 2D (and 3D) soft disks packings, close to the critical packing fraction ϕc, this results ... -
2D nanosheets from fool's gold by LPE: High performance lithium-ion battery anodes made from stone
(2021)Recently, it has been shown that it is possible to apply liquid-phase exfoliation to non-layered materials, yielding quasi-2D nanosheets. It has been proposed that even a slight bonding anisotropy in the starting crystal ... -

(2013)The present paper reports numerical and experimental investigation of noise figure of a multi-section semiconductor optical amplifier. The designed amplifier shows a 3.8dB noise figure, which seems to be the lowest figure ... -
3D Printing of Multifunctional Conductive Polymer Composite Hydrogels
(2023)Functional conductive hydrogels are widely used in various application scenarios, such as artificial skin, cell scaffolds, and implantable bioelectronics. However, their novel designs and technological innovations are ... -
4D full-vector radio frequency complex magnetic susceptibility mapping. Near-field imaging of RFID tags
(2019)Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a technology permeating both everyday life and scientific applications alike. The most prolific passive tag-based system uses inductively-powered tags with no internal power source ... -
6 x 6 Effective Mass Hamiltonian for Heterostructures grown on (11N)-oriented substrates
(American Physical Society, 2003)The 6?6 effective mass Hamiltonian for semiconductor heterostructures grown on (11N)-oriented substrates is derived and is compared with the 4?4 model. The hole subbands of InGaAs/InP single quantum wells grown on ... -
