Dielectric response of BaTiO3 electronic states under AC fields via microsecond time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy

2021

Abstract For the first time, the dielectric response of a BaTiO 3 thin film under an AC electric field is investigated using microsecond time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy at the Ti K-edge in order to clarify correlated contributions of each constituent atom on the electronic states. Intensities of the pre-edge e g peak and shoulder structure just below the main edge increase with an increase in the amplitude of the applied electric field, whereas that of the main peak decreases in an opposite manner. Based on the multiple scattering theory, the increase and decrease of the e g and main peaks are simulated for different Ti off-center displacements. Our results indicate that these s…

Rivalry of diffusion, external field and gravity in micro-convection of magnetic colloids

2019

Magnetic fields and magnetic materials have promising microfluidic applications. For example, magnetic micro-convection can enhance mixing considerably. However, previous studies have not explained increased effective diffusion during this phenomenon. Here we show that enhanced interface smearing comes from a gravity induced convective motion within a thin microfluidic channel, caused by a small density difference between miscible magnetic and non-magnetic fluids. This motion resembles diffusive behavior and can be described with an effective diffusion coefficient. We explain this with a theoretical model, based on a dimensionless gravitational Rayleigh number, and verify it by numerical si…

Enabling partially reconfigurable IP cores parameterisation and integration using MARTE and IP-XACT

2012

International audience; This paper presents a framework which facilitates the parameterization and integration of IP cores into partially reconfigurable SoC platforms, departing from a high-level of abstraction. The approach is based in a Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) methodology, which exploits two widely used standards for Systems-on-Chip specification, MARTE and IP-XACT. The presented work deals with the deployment level of the MDE approach, in which the abstract components of the platform are first linked to the lower level IP-XACT counterparts. At this phase, information for parameterization and integration is readily available, and a synthesizable model can be obtained from the gener…

A fully-digital realtime SoC FPGA based phase noise analyzer with cross-correlation

2017

We report on a fully-digital and realtime operation of a phase noise analyzer using modern digital techniques with cross-correlation. With the advent of system on chip field-programmable gate arrays (SoC FPGAs) embedding hard core central processing unit, coprocessor and FPGA onto a single integrated circuit, the building of sensitive analysis devices for Time & Frequency research is made accessible at virtually no cost and benefits from reconfigurability. Used with high-speed digitizers we have successfully implemented a four-channel system whose preliminary results at 10 MHz shows a residual white noise floor < −185 dBrad2/Hz up to 5 MHz off the carrier, and flicker < −127 dBrad2/Hz using…

Coeval Cold Spray Additive Manufacturing Variances and Innovative Contributions

2017

Tremendous attention has been given to the cold spray process, even more today with the emergence of additive manufacturing, worldwide. Several inventions related to the cold spray technology have been patented for over a century and mostly since a couple of decades. But the cold spray technology knows a period of great innovations due to recent and current substantial explorations. Various technological solutions have been developed. The technical dimension, and particularly in terms of manufacturing method, has also always been a major genesis of progresses and novelties. This chapter is a technological survey of the cold spray additive manufacturing and reports variant methods and innova…

Computational volumetric reconstruction of integral imaging with improved depth resolution considering continuously non-uniform shifting pixels

2018

Abstract In this paper, we propose a new computational volumetric reconstruction technique of three-dimensional (3D) integral imaging for depth resolution enhancement by using non-uniform and integer-valued shifting pixels. In a typical integral imaging system, 3D images can be recorded and visualized using a lenslet array. In previous studies, many computational reconstruction techniques such as computational volumetric reconstruction and pixel of elemental images rearrangement technique (PERT) have been reported. However, a computational volumetric reconstruction technique has low visual quality and depth resolution because low-resolution elemental images and uniformly distributed shiftin…
