Metasurface electron optics in graphene
[article]
2022
arXiv
pre-print
For electron optics in graphene, the propagation effect has so far been the only physical mechanism available. The resulting electron-optics-based components are large in size and operate at low temperatures to avoid violating the ballistic transport limits. In this paper, Dirac fermion metasurfaces, electronic counterparts of optical metasurfaces, are introduced for graphene electronics. By a metasurface, formally a linear array of gate-bias-controlled circular quantum dots, the wavefront of

... ectron beams can be shaped within a one-quantum-dot-diameter distance, far below the ballistic limits at room temperature. This provides opportunities to create electron-optics-based devices that operate under ambient conditions. Moreover, unlike optical metasurfaces, Dirac fermion metasurfaces have near-perfect operating efficiencies and their high tunability allows for free and fast switching among functionalities. The concept of metasurface electron optics might open up a promising avenue for improving the performance of quantum devices in Dirac fermion materials.
An Improved Atmospheric Component of Zebiak-Cane Model for Simulating ENSO Winds
2015
Journal of the Meteorological Society of Japan
The atmospheric component of the Zebiak-Cane (ZC) coupled model is a simple elegant framework that plays an instrumental role in the investigation of the fundamental coupled dynamics of the tropical ocean-atmosphere interaction and the El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phenomenon. We attempt two simple thermal and dynamical modifications to reduce apparently spurious wind activities simulated by this atmospheric model in the eastern tropical Pacific under ENSO sea surface temperature (SST)

... maly forcing. First, motivated by established observational evidences, we manipulate the anomalous convective heating to be dependent on the sum of mean SST and SST anomalies and the low-level convergence. Second, we add an ad hoc parameterization for the effect of convective momentum transport (CMT) into the zonal momentum balance. By adding a background-dependent efficiency factor into convective heating and further adjusting the convective feedback parameter used in the original model, we are able to substantially reduce the wind bias in the tropical Pacific, especially in the eastern tropical Pacific. Meanwhile, with a simple CMT parameterization, it compensates an over reduction in the central Pacific wind due to the first modification. By comparing the simulated wind anomalies in our modified version with that from the original version and with the observation, we find that the equatorial wind response to observation SST anomaly forcing for the period 1982-2010 has been improved in terms of amplitudes and spatial patterns. We also show that these improvements are carried over to ZC coupled model as well when we add these modifications to coupled simulations.
Propagation properties of right-hand circularly polarized Airy–Gaussian beams through slabs of right-handed materials and left-handed materials
2015
Optical Society of America. Journal A: Optics, Image Science, and Vision
The propagation of right-hand circularly polarized Airy-Gaussian beams (RHCPAiGBs) through slabs of righthanded materials (RHMs) and left-handed materials (LHMs) is investigated analytically and numerically with the transfer matrix method. An approximate analytical expression for the RHCPAiGBs passing through a paraxial ABCD optical system is derived on the basis of the Huygens diffraction integral formula. The intensity and the phase distributions of the RHCPAiGBs through RHMs and LHMs are

... nstrated. The influence of the parameter χ 0 on the propagation of RHCPAiGBs through RHM and LHM slabs is investigated. The RHCPAiGBs possess transverse-momentum currents, which shows that the physics underlying this intriguing accelerating effect is that of the combined contributions of the transverse spin and transverse orbital currents. Additionally, we go a step further to explore the radiation force including the gradient force and scattering force of the RHCPAiGBs.
The impact of a Dysbindin schizophrenia susceptibility variant on fiber tract integrity in healthy individuals: A TBSS-based diffusion tensor imaging study
2012
NeuroImage
Schizophrenia is a severe neuropsychiatric disorder with high heritability, though its exact etiopathogenesis is yet unknown. An increasing number of studies point to the importance of white matter anomalies in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. While several studies have identified the impact of schizophrenia susceptibility gene variants on gray matter anatomy in both schizophrenia patients and healthy risk variant carriers, studies dealing with the impact of these gene variants on white

... ter integrity are still scarce. We here present a study on the effects of a Dysbindin schizophrenia susceptibility gene variant on fiber tract integrity in healthy young subjects. 101 subjects genotyped for Dysbindin-gene variant rs1018381, though without personal or first degree relative history of psychiatric disorders underwent diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), 83 of them were included in the final analysis. We used Tract-Based Spatial Statistics (TBSS) analysis to delineate the major fiber tracts. Carriers of the minor allele T of the rs1018381 in the Dysbindin gene showed two clusters of reduced fractional anisotropy (FA) values in the perihippocampal region of the right temporal lobe compared to homozygote carriers of the major allele C. Clusters of increased FA values in T-allele carriers were found in the left prefrontal white matter, the right fornix, the right midbrain area, the left callosal body, the left cerebellum and in proximity of the right superior medial gyrus. Dysbindin has been implicated in neurite outgrowth and morphology. Impairments in anatomic connectivity as found associated with the minor Dysbindin allele in our study may result in increased risk for schizophrenia due to altered fiber tracts.
Graphene Electron Metasurfaces
[article]
2022
The propagation effect is so far the only available implementation mechanism when electronic components in graphene are developed based on Dirac fermion optics. The resulting optics-inspired components are large in size and operate normally only in the lowest possible temperature environment so that the ballistic limits are not violated. Here electron metasurfaces based on the generalized Snell's law, a linear array of gate-bias-controlled circular quantum dots in form, are proposed to

... e graphene electrons within the distance of the quantum-dot diameter, far less than the ballistic limits at room temperature. This provides opportunities to create untracompact optics-inspired components which are comparable in size to components arising from other principles and hence can operate at any temperature below room temperature. Moreover, unlike their optical counterparts, electron metasurfaces have near-perfect operation efficiencies and their high tunability allows for free and fast switching among functionalities. The conceptually new metasurfaces open up a promising avenue to pull optics-inspired components to a desired level of performance and flexibility.
