Associative Memory Based on Double-Gating of Molecularly Linked Nanosystem Arrays: A Theoretical Scheme
2008
We discuss theoretically the properties of an associative memory (a system that can retrieve a stored pattern that is similar to the input pattern) based on the ideal conductive properties of a molecularly linked nanosystem array. Two schemes are considered for the memory based on the gate potential modulation of the drain-source current through the array. In the first scheme, the basic units of the electric circuit are nanosystems (e.g., nanoparticles) arranged in a series array. Each nanosystem is assumed to have two states of conductances, GM and Gm (GM ≫ Gm), that can be tuned externally by the gate and backgate potentials. The bit sequence associated with a given pattern is stored as t…
Photonically assisted RF generator with incoherent sources
2008
An RF waveform generator operating with incoherent broadband light is successfully implemented. Complex RF ~10 GHz bandwidth waveforms are generated by means of incoherent wavelength-to-time mapping. Our technique can be scaled to the mm-wave range.

Simultaneous recording of true and random coincidences using a two-parameter analyzer system
1971
Abstract A description is given of a simple fast coincidence method which allows the simultaneous recording of coincidence and random coincidence spectra. The method is based on the properties of a standard two-parameter pulse-height analyzer system, and no special electronics is required.
Theoretical analysis of a realistic atom-chip quantum gate
2006
9 pages, 5 color figures; International audience; We present a detailed, realistic analysis of the implementation of a proposal for a quantum phase gate based on atomic vibrational states, specializing it to neutral rubidium atoms on atom chips. We show how to create a double-well potential with static currents on the atom chips, using for all relevant parameters values that are achieved with present technology. The potential barrier between the two wells can be modified by varying the currents in order to realize a quantum phase gate for qubit states encoded in the atomic external degree of freedom. The gate performance is analyzed through numerical simulations; the operation time is ~10 m…
Online Data Reduction using Track and Vertex Reconstruction on GPUs for the Mu3e Experiment
2017
The Mu3e experiment searches for the lepton flavour violating decay μ + → e + e − e + , aiming to achieve a sensitivity of 2 · 10 −15 in its first phase and ultimately aspiring to a final sensitivity of 10 −16 . During the first phase of the experiment, a muon rate of ∼ 10 8 μ /s will be available, resulting in a data rate of ∼ 80 Gbit/s. The trigger-less readout system is based on optical links and switching FPGAs sending the complete detector data for a time slice to one node of the filter farm. A full online reconstruction is necessary to reduce the data rate to a manageable amount to be written to disk. Graphics processing units (GPUs) are used to fit tracks with a non-iterative 3D trac…
Full Wave Solution for Intel CPU With a Heat Sink for EMC Investigations
2010
A CPU with a heat sink (e.g. Intel Pentium 4 and Intel Pentium dual core) is a challenging problem for EMC analysis. A Very Large Scale Integrated (VLSI) device was modelled using the Finite Element Method (FEM) frequency domain solver to obtain a 3D full wave solution. The electromagnetic (EM) radiation emitted from these high power microelectronic circuits connected to a heat sink was found to have resonant frequencies around 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz with reflection coefficients less than -19 dB and -8 dB respectively. These resonant frequencies are very close to the operating frequency of both IEEE and Bluetooth wireless communication systems. This paper proposes a new benchmark model based on …
Numerical simulation of a wawe generator: A case of study
2013
The aim of present work is the numerical simulation of a linear generator, capable of directly converting the kinetic energy, available by the wave, into electrical energy, through the device linear motion (up and down). In this paper, we intend to propose a numerical simulation approach to immersed devices by applying the Immersed Boundary Method. The Theory of linear wave is used to study and reproduce sea conditions and the computational domain is created based on observations available for the site in which it is envisaged the positioning of the device.
Experimental demonstration of Bloch mode parity change in photonic crystal waveguide
2004
We experimentally show coupling between two photonic crystal waveguide Bloch modes having a different parity. A monomode ridge waveguide etched in a silicon-on-insulator substrate and connecting to the photonic crystal waveguide allows us to excite the even Bloch mode. Transmission measurements, performed on a broad spectral range, show the even mode propagation along the defect line. Then, spectrally resolved near-field patterns obtained by using a scanning near-field optical microscope in collection mode for wavelengths, inside and outside the multimode region of the photonic crystal waveguide, clearly demonstrate coupling phenomenon between even and odd modes.
Evaluation of performance of a hybrid electro-optic directional coupler and a Mach–Zehnder switch
2017
The efficiency of an electro-optic (EO) directional coupler (DC) and a Mach–Zehnder (MZ) switch is discussed. The specific designs employ a passive waveguide core and an EO cladding. The performance of a DC switch was evaluated by numerical methods, namely coupled mode theory (CMT), eigenmode expansion (EME) method, and beam envelope method. Using the CMT and EME methods, it is shown that in the DC with a passive waveguide core and EO cladding at certain waveguide parameters the switching effect does not take place. The effect is demonstrated for the first time and suggests that careful optimization of the DC switch should be done before experimental realization of the device. The efficienc…
