Laser control in a bifurcating region

2006

We present a complete analysis of the laser control of a model molecular system using both optimal control theory and adiabatic techniques. This molecule has a particular potential energy surface with a bifurcating region connecting three potential wells which allows a variety of processes such as isomerization, tunnelling or implementation of quantum gates on one or two qubits. The parameters of the model have been chosen so as to reproduce the main features of H3CO which is a molecule-benchmark for such dynamics. We show the feasibility of different processes and we investigate their robustness against variations of laser field. We discuss the conditions under which each method of control…

Phase Noise and Frequency Stability of the Red-Pitaya Internal PLL

2019

In field-programmable gate array platforms, the main clock is generally a low-cost quartz oscillator whose stability is of the order of $10^{-9}$ to $10^{-10}$ in the short term and $10^{-7}$ to $10^{-8}$ in the medium term, with the uncertainty of tens of ppm. Better stability is achieved by feeding an external reference into the internal phase-locked loop (PLL). We report the noise characterization of the internal PLL of Red-Pitaya platform, an open-source embedded system architected around the Zynq 7010 System on Chip, with analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters. Our experiments show that, providing an external 10-MHz reference, the PLL exhibits a residual frequency stability…

A compact system for high precision time measurements ( < 14 ps RMS) and integrated data acquisition for a large number of channels

2011

A high precision ( < 14 ps RMS time resolution) and high channel density ( ~ 256 channels) Time to Digital Converter (TDC) module (realized in FPGAs) with integrated DAQ is presented. The data is transported over up to 8 Gigabit-Ethernet or optical links with up to 3 Gb/s. Slow-Control information is transported over the same links. It can be attached directly to the detector, which allows the elimination of long cables and crate systems. The full 256 channel TDCs are expected to use approximately 30 W electrical power. The module size is 20 cm by 23 cm. Power is provided by a galvanically isolated 48 V low noise power supply. AddOn-boards adapt to the special needs of the detector to be re…

Heavy Ion Sensitivity of 16/32-Gbit NAND-Flash and 4-Gbit DDR3 SDRAM

2012

16/32-Gbit NAND-Flash and 4-Gbit DDR3 SDRAM memories have been tested under heavy ion irradiation. At high LET, 25nm NAND-Flash show MBUs at normal incidence. Techniques for SEFI mitigation in DDR3 SDRAM are studied.

SEU and MBU Angular Dependence of Samsung and Micron 8-Gbit SLC NAND-Flash Memories under Heavy-Ion Irradiation

2011

The angular dependence of the SEU and MBU cross sections of two 8-Gbit NAND-Flash memories, Samsung and Micron, is measured under Ar, Fe, and Kr irradiation. The omnidirectional sensitivity is calculated based on experimental results.

π conjugation across the tetrathiafulvalene core: Synthesis of extended tetrathiafulvalene derivatives and theoretical analysis of their unusual elec…

2000

A series of extended tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) derivatives bearing one or two 1,4-dithiafulven-6-yl substitutents has been prepared. The new compounds present remarkable electrochemical singularities compared with other TTF derivatives, which are strongly affected by the nature of the substitution on the lateral heterocycle(s). This unusual electrochemical behaviour follows a square-scheme sequence and is attributed to structural changes upon oxidation of the pi-donating molecules. Digital simulations of the electrochemical data have been used to reach the values of the kinetic and thermodynamic constants involved in the square scheme. Theoretical calculations establish an important contribu…

Gated communities nel meridione europeo? Alcune evidenze tra Lisbona e Palermo

2011

Dagli anni '90 le discipline sociologiche e geografiche hanno posto particolare attenzione ai processi di securizzazione, fortificazione e privatizzazione dello spazio urbano. La ricerca di dottorato dalla quale questo articolo è estratto ha l'ambizione di estendere il ragionamento ai territori del meridione europeo – generalmente tralasciati dalla letteratura di riferimento – e di contribuire ad una teorizzazione per una pianificazione capace di affrontare tali questioni. La letteratura esistente ha uno dei suoi fulcri nello studio delle gated communities, condomini fortificati sull'esempio di quelli statunitensi emergenti dagli anni '70: in questo pezzo si analizza la questione delle gate…

A Lagrange Multiplier Based Domain Decomposition Method for the Solution of a Wave Problem with Discontinuous Coefficients

2008

In this paper we consider the numerical solution of a linear wave equation with discontinuous coefficients. We divide the computational domain into two subdomains and use explicit time difference scheme along with piecewise linear finite element approximations on semimatching grids. We apply boundary supported Lagrange multiplier method to match the solution on the interface between subdomains. The resulting system of linear equations of the “saddle-point” type is solved efficiently by a conjugate gradient method.

Improved technique for sheath supported contralateral limb gate cannulation in endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair

2019

Summary: Background: To present a technique of sheath supported contralateral limb gate (CLG) cannulation of modular bifurcated stent-graft in endovascular abdominal aortic repair. Materials and methods: After totally percutaneous bilateral femoral access, the 9F introducer sheath is exchanged to a 30 cm 12 fr introducer sheath over a stiff wire contralateral to the intended main stent-graft insertion side and advanced into the aorta below the lowest renal artery. Parallel to the stiff wire within the sheath an additional standard J-tip guidewire with a 5 fr Pigtail angiographic catheter is advanced to the level of the renal arteries. After main body deployment, the 12 fr introducer sheath…
