Dynamic carrier distribution in quantum wells modulated by surface acoustic waves

2001

We have investigated the dynamics of photogenerated carriers under surface acoustic wave (SAW) fields in GaAs quantum wells using spatially and time-resolved photoluminescence (PL). The frequency and phase of the PL oscillations under a SAW yield information about the carrier distribution and the band-gap modulation induced by the SAW. We directly prove that the transport properties of the carriers ultimately control their distribution, storage and, subsequent recombination in the modulated potential.

A mesoscopic mechanical model of the surface tension and some simulation results

2019

Abstract Drops of mercury do not spread on a surface. A metal paper clip can float on water. These phenomena are macroscopic manifestations of molecular interactions and can be explained in terms of surface tension. In this study, we discuss a simple mesoscopic mechanical model of the surface tension and the results of numerical fluid dynamics simulations implemented on the basis of it. We study the droplet formation without and with gravity when it can drop from a narrow hole like a trickling tap and finally the behaviour of free surface liquid in a vessel. Teachers and students can be able to study the surface tension by using the computer simulation as a “tool” for analysing and discussi…

Computer simulations to approach surface tension by means of a simple mesoscopic mechanical model

2019

A small insect can stand or walk on water surface, drops of mercury do not spread on a solid surface, and a meniscus is formed at the free surface of a liquid contained in a thin vessel. These phenomena can be seen as macroscopic manifestations of molecular interactions and can be explained macroscopically in terms of surface tension. In this study, we deal with an approach to surface tension from a mechanical point of view, presenting a simple mesoscopic mechanical model of surface tension and the results of its implementation in numerical fluid dynamics simulations. Particularly, phenomena like droplet formation without gravity and with gravity when it can drop from a narrow hole like a t…

Mafia e costi psichici. Le ricadute nei familiari delle vittime di omicidio

La letteratura mostra che la morte di un familiare a causa di un omicidio rappresenta una perdita traumatica in grado di provocare un elevato distress (caratterizzato dal “sinergismo” di trauma e lutto) associato all’aumento del rischio di gravi conseguenze sia sulla salute psichica che sulla qualità della vita in generale (Green, 2000; Rynearson & McCreery, 1993). Recenti reviews (van Denderen et al., 2013; Connolly & Gordon, 2014) hanno messo in evidenza un’elevata incidenza di problematiche psicologiche a medio e a lungo termine nei familiari definiti dalla letteratura “ survivors” (Hertz et al., 2005). Tuttavia, ancora pochi sono gli studi sistematici sulle esperienze di lutto traumatic…

Classification of spectra and search for biomarkers in prostate tumours from proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy

2010

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men over 50 years. Current detection methods either lack sensitivity or specificity or are unpleasant for the patient. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy allows the study of metabolism in vivo. The use of a high field machine (≥3T) has allowed us to dispense with the use of an endorectal coil, which is particularly uncomfortable for the patient. The objective of this thesis is to create an automatic method to detect cancer by processing data obtained through magnetic resonance spectroscopy MRS is a complex phenomenon, very sensitive to acquisition conditions. Firstly, we have studied how to improve and optimise signal acquisition. However, even with…

On the side of the marginals: the character of Ahmed in The Tower of Defense (1978) of Copy

2018

Copi, writer, playwright and draughtsman Ar- gentino settles in Paris in 1962 until his death in 1987. The experience of exile and wandering marks the personal and creative trajectory of this intercultural artist. Indeed, a whole series of vulnerable and marginal characters swarm in their particular universe and subvesivo. In this space of the excluded, the figure of the immi- grant Maghreb in France, embodied in the cha- racter of Ahmed, acquires all its significance. In this work we will try to analyse the symbolic value of Ahmed, heir to the colonial past mar- ked by rejection, which appears in the Teatro de Copi, specifically in La Défense Tour (1978). Ahmed’s image traces an invisible …

Phase-dependent microwave response of a graphene Josephson junction

2021

Gate-tunable Josephson junctions embedded in a microwave environment provide a promising platform to in situ engineer and optimize novel superconducting quantum circuits. The key quantity for the circuit design is the phase-dependent complex admittance of the junction, which can be probed by sensing a radio frequency SQUID with a tank circuit. Here, we investigate a graphene-based Josephson junction as a prototype gate-tunable element enclosed in a SQUID loop that is inductively coupled to a superconducting resonator operating at 3 GHz. With a concise circuit model that describes the dispersive and dissipative response of the coupled system, we extract the phase-dependent junction admittanc…
