Cross-sublattice Spin Pumping and Magnon Level Attraction in van der Waals Antiferromagnets
2020
We theoretically study spin pumping from a layered van der Waals antiferromagnet in its canted ground state into an adjacent normal metal. We find that the resulting dc spin pumping current bears contributions along all spin directions. Our analysis allows for detecting intra- and cross-sublattice spin-mixing conductances via measuring the two in-plane spin current components. We further show that sublattice symmetry-breaking Gilbert damping can be realized via interface engineering and induces a dissipative coupling between the optical and acoustic magnon modes. This realizes magnon level attraction and exceptional points in the system. Furthermore, the dissipative coupling and cross-subla…
Engineering Topological Nodal Line Semimetals in Rashba Spin-Orbit Coupled Atomic Chains
2019
We study an atomic chain in the presence of modulated charge potential and modulated Rashba spin-orbit coupling (RSOC) of equal period. We show that for commensurate periodicities $\lambda=4 n$ with integer $n$, the three-dimensional synthetic space obtained by sliding the two phases of the charge potential and RSOC features a topological nodal line semimetal protected by an antiunitary particle-hole symmetry. The location and shape of the nodal lines strongly depend on the relative amplitude between the charge potential and RSOC.
Observation of Geometric Parametric Instability Induced by the Periodic Spatial Self-Imaging of Multimode Waves
2016
Spatio-temporal mode coupling in highly multimode physical systems permits new routes for exploring complex instabilities and forming coherent wave structures. We present here the first experimental demonstration of multiple geometric parametric instability sidebands, generated in the frequency domain through resonant space-time coupling, owing to the natural periodic spatial self-imaging of a multimode quasi-continuous-wave beam in a standard graded-index multimode fiber. The input beam was launched in the fiber by means of an amplified microchip laser emitting sub-nanosecond pulses at 1064 nm. The experimentally observed frequency spacing among sidebands agrees well with analytical predic…
Routing quantum information in spin chains
2013
Two different models for performing efficiently routing of a quantum state are presented. Both cases involve an XX spin chain working as data bus and additional spins that play the role of sender and receivers, one of which is selected to be the target of the quantum state transmission protocol via a coherent quantum coupling mechanism making use of local/global magnetic fields. Quantum routing is achieved, in the first of the models considered, by weakly coupling the sender and the receiver to the data bus. In the second model, strong magnetic fields acting on additional spins located between the sender/receiver and the data bus allow us to perform high fidelity routing.
High Sensitivity Refractive Index Sensor Based on Highly Overcoupled Tapered Fiber Optic Couplers
2017
In this paper, a simple and compact fiber-optic sensor based on an overcoupled tapered fiber coupler is studied. The coupler is fabricated to be operated well beyond the initial coupling cycles, where the rapid exchange of energy between outputs ports enable the fabrication of a highly sensitive device. The suitability and sensitivity of the proposed scheme is demonstrated by measuring refractive index (RI) variations of sugar concentrations in water. The device presents a linear response in terms of power transmission or wavelength shift versus RI changes. The best achieved sensitivity is 0.442 units of normalized transmission per unit of sugar concentration, with a noise detection limit o…

The domain structure in PLZT (6-8)/65/35 and spontaneous ferroelectric-relaxor phase transition
1995
Abstract In order to test the hypothesis proposed in Reference 10 about a spontaneous relaxor-ferroelectric phase transition in PLZT (6-7)/65/35 the hysteresis loops and domain structure measurements were carried out. The results confirm this hypothesis. The appearance of the ferroelectric long range order in PLZT with decreasing concentration of La ions is explained by a larger coupling between the feroelectrically active BO6 octahedrons due to smaller concentration of defects and higher dielectric constant.
Features of magnetorheology of biocompatible chain-forming ferrofluids with multi-core magnetic nanoparticles: Experiment and simulation
2020
Abstract We study the magnetorheological properties and structural transitions in novel aqueous colloidal suspensions of magnetic nanoparticles developed for biomedical applications. Defined-shape field-tunable superparamagnetic nanoparticles with clustered cores and their suspensions are produced. The region of intermediate magnetic coupling strength between colloidal ferrofluids and magnetorheological suspensions is systematically studied for the first time. Hybrid numerical simulations with hydrodynamic interactions provide full structural information. The distinctive features of the rheograms are related to transitions between Brownian and persistent microstructure, shape anisotropy, co…
Micro damage and cracking in fibre reinforced composites by a novel hybrid numerical technique
2020
Article number 0033974 AIP Incluida en Conference Proceedings 2309 The prediction of failure mechanisms in fibre-reinforced composite materials is of great importance for the design of composite engineering applications. With the aim of providing a tool able to predict and explain the initiation and propagation of damage in unidirectional fiber reinforced composites, in this contribution we develop a micromechanical numerical model based on a novel hybrid approach coupling the virtual element method (VEM) and the boundary element method (BEM). The BEM is a popular numerical technique, efficient and accurate, which has been successfully applied to interfacial fracture mechanics problems of f…
Multifunctionality in spin crossover materials
2005
Abstract One of the most important trends in the spin crossover (SCO) field is focused on the synthesis of new molecule-based functional materials in which the SCO properties may be combined with other physical or chemical properties in a synergic fashion. The current stage of investigations regarding interplay and synergic effects between SCO, magnetic coupling, liquid crystalline properties, host–guest interactions, non-linear optical properties, electrical conductivity, and ligand isomerization is highlighted and discussed.
