Within the framework of mean-held theory we investigate the behavior of the ferroelectric thin film. Our results show that the influence of the depolarization field is to flatten the spontaneous polarization profile and make the films more homogeneous, which is consistent with Ginzburg Landau theory. This fact shows that this model can be taken as an effective model to deal with the ferroelectric film and can be further extended to refer to quantum effect. The competition between quantum effect and depolarization field induces some interesting phenomena on ferroelectric thin films.展开更多

This limitation is due to the use of mono polarized antennas at receiver and transmitter sides. In this paper, in order to reduce the antenna correlation, the polarization diversity technique is employed. Although the spatial antenna correlation is attenuated for multi-polarization configurations, the cross-polar components appear. This paper highlights the impact of depolarization effect on the MIMO channel capacity for a 4×4 uniform linear antenna array. We assume that the channel is unknown at the transmitter and perfectly known at the receiver so that equal power is distributed to each of the transmit antennas. The numerical results illustrate that for low depolarization and spatial correlation, the capacity of single-polarization configuration behaves better than that of multi-polarization configuration.展开更多

It can obtain the geometrical depolarization effect of each path if known the antenna configuration, the polarization field radiation pattern and the spatial distribution of scatters. With the development of communication technology, information transmission spectrum is more and more scarce.

Second order statistical moments of the ordinary and extraordinary waves scattered by the magnetized plasma slab are obtained using the boundary conditions for an arbitrary correlation function of electron density fluctuations. Normalized correlation functions at quasi-longitudinal propagation along the external magnetic field are calculated for the carrier frequency 0.1 MHz and 40 MHz. Isolines of the normalized variance of Faraday angle are constructed for the anisotropic Gaussian correlation function at various anisotropy factors of irregularities.

However, the relatively small coercive field( 2 kV/cm) of such crystals restricts their application at high frequencies because the driving field will exceed the coercive field. The depolarization field can be considerably larger in an antiparallel direction than in a parallel direction with respect to polarization when the bipolar driving cycle starts. Thus, if the direction of the sine wave signal in the first half cycle is opposite to the polarization direction, then the depolarized domains can be repolarized in the second half of the sine cycle. However, if the direction of the sine wave signal in the first half of the cycle is along the polarization direction, then the change is negligible,and the domains switched in the second half of the sine cycle cannot be recovered. The design of electric driving method needs to allow the use of a large applied field to emit strong enough signals and produce good images. This phenomenon combined with the coercive field increases with the driving frequency, thereby making the PMN-PT single crystals usable for high-frequency applications. As such, the applied field can be considerably larger than the conventionally defined coercive field.展开更多

It provides a new approach for physicists to study the spin feature of fundamental particles and the dynamics of spin-orbit coupling, such as spin resonances. We use numerical simulation to study the features of spin under the modulation of orbital motion in an electron storage ring. The various cases of depolarization due to spin-orbit coupling through an emitting photon and misalignment of magnets in the ring are discussed.展开更多

文摘The [001]c-polarized(1-x)Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3–xPbTiO3(PMN-PT) single crystals are widely used in ultrasonic detection transducers and underwater acoustic sensors. However, the relatively small coercive field( 2 kV/cm) of such crystals restricts their application at high frequencies because the driving field will exceed the coercive field. The depolarization field can be considerably larger in an antiparallel direction than in a parallel direction with respect to polarization when the bipolar driving cycle starts. Thus, if the direction of the sine wave signal in the first half cycle is opposite to the polarization direction, then the depolarized domains can be repolarized in the second half of the sine cycle. However, if the direction of the sine wave signal in the first half of the cycle is along the polarization direction, then the change is negligible,and the domains switched in the second half of the sine cycle cannot be recovered. The design of electric driving method needs to allow the use of a large applied field to emit strong enough signals and produce good images. This phenomenon combined with the coercive field increases with the driving frequency, thereby making the PMN-PT single crystals usable for high-frequency applications. As such, the applied field can be considerably larger than the conventionally defined coercive field.

文摘Ultraviolet(UV)photodetectors are extensively adopted in the fields of the Internet of Things,optical communications and imaging.Nowadays,with broadening the application scope of UV photodetectors,developing integrated devices with more functionalities rather than basic photo-detecting ability are highly required and have been triggered ever-growing interest in scientific and industrial communities.Ferroelectric thin films have become a potential candidate in the field of UV detection due to their wide bandgap and unique photovoltaic characteristics.Additionally,ferroelectric thin films perform excellent dielectric,piezoelectric,pyroelectric,acousto-optic effects,etc.,which can satisfy the demand for the diversified development of UV detectors.In this review,according to the different roles of ferroelectric thin films in the device,the UV photodetectors based on ferroelectric films are classified into ferroelectric depolarization field driven type,ferroelectric depolarization field and built-in electric field co-driven type,and ferroelectric field enhanced type.These three types of ferroelectric UV photodetectors have great potential and are expected to promote the development of a new generation of UV detection technology.At the end of the paper,the advantages and challenges of three types of ferroelectric UV photodetectors are summarized,and the possible development direction in the future is proposed.

文摘The spin polarization phenomenon in lepton circular accelerators had been known for many years. It provides a new approach for physicists to study the spin feature of fundamental particles and the dynamics of spin-orbit coupling, such as spin resonances. We use numerical simulation to study the features of spin under the modulation of orbital motion in an electron storage ring. The various cases of depolarization due to spin-orbit coupling through an emitting photon and misalignment of magnets in the ring are discussed.

文摘(Bi_(0.5)Na_(0.5))TiO_(3)-based materials have attracted widespread attention due to large electro-strain,large remnant polarization(P r)and high Curie temperature(T C),but the existence of inherent depolarization temperature(T d)limits the temperature stability and application temperature range.In this work,we find that K/Na ratio can regulate T d(from 90℃to 246℃)of the ceramics,which confirms that the increase of K substitution can effectively improve the temperature stability of the material.The phase structure and electrical properties of Bi_(0.5)(Na_(1-x)K_(x))_(0.5)TiO_(3)(BNKT x)ceramics can be well modulated by changing K/Na.In addition,BNKT x system exhibits excellent piezoelectric response at morphotropic phase boundary(MPB)of 20%BKT content(d_(33)=180 pC/N),where rhombohedral(R 3 c)phase and tetragonal(P 4 bm)phase coexist in MPB.With K further substitution,BNKT x ceramics transform into tetragonal phase,and the domain size grows due to the structural transition from short-range-correlated P 4 bm to long-range-correlated P 4 mm.The deferment of T d is also tightly related to the increase of P 4 mm/P 4 bm ratio.This work can provide an effective way to tailor depolarization temperature and electrical properties of BNT-based ceramics.
