To gain further insight, here, we focus on the dynamical features of the hard-core Bose–Hubbard model on this lattice and study the excitation spectra by combining stochastic analytic continuation and quantum Monte Carlo simulation. In both PVBS and SF phases,a flat band with bow-tie structure is observed and can be explained by certain symmetries. At the transition point,the spectra turn to be continuous and gapless. A(2+1)-dimensional Abelian–Higgs model with mixed 't Hooft anomaly is proposed to describe the transition, where the anomaly matching predicts that the deconfinement can exist on the domain walls. From the snapshot of the spin configuration in real space, we found the existence of the domain wall. We also found that the spectrum along a specific path in momentum space from PVBS phase to the transition point can be well described by an XXZ spin chain, and the critical theory of XXZ spin chain matches the anomaly. The two-spinon continuum along this specific path implies additional domain walls(point defect) can emerge in the domain walls(line defect) and take the role of deconfinement at the transition point.展开更多

The results reveal distinct anisotropies in both the longitudinal and planar Hall resistances as the magnetic field is rotated within the plane, which are well-captured by the planar Hall effect(PHE) model. Further analysis indicates that the primary contribution to the PHE in GaGeTe arises from its ferromagnetic component and anisotropic orbital resistance, rather than topologically nontrivial chiral anomaly. This work deepens our understanding of the PHE mechanism and offers valuable insights for the development of planar Hall sensors based on two-dimensional materials.展开更多

文摘Diffractive optical neural networks(DONNs)have exhibited the advantages of parallelization,high speed,and low consumption.However,the existing DONNs based on free-space diffractive optical elements are bulky and unsteady.In this study,we propose a planar-waveguide integrated diffractive neural network chip architecture.The three diffractive layers are engraved on the same side of a quartz wafer.The three-layer chip is designed with 32-mm3 processing space and enables a computing speed of 3.1×109 Tera operations per second.The results show that the proposed chip achieves 73.4%experimental accuracy for the Modified National Institute of Standards and Technology database while showing the system’s robustness in a cycle test.The consistency of experiments is 88.6%,and the arithmetic mean standard deviation of the results is~4.7%.The proposed chip architecture can potentially revolutionize high-resolution optical processing tasks with high robustness.

文摘Radio antenna arrays have many advantages for astronomical observations,such as high resolution,high sensitivity,multi-target simultaneous observation,and flexible beam formation.Problems surrounding key indices,such as sensitivity enhancement,scanning range extension,and sidelobe level suppression,need to be solved urgently.Here,we propose a sparse optimization scheme based on a genetic algorithm for a 64-array element planar radio antenna array.As optimization targets for the iterative process of the genetic algorithm,we use the maximum sidelobe levels and beamwidth of multiple cross-section patterns that pass through the main beam in three-dimensions,with the maximum sidelobe levels of the patterns at several different scanning angles.Element positions are adjusted for iterations,to select the optimal array configuration.Following sparse layout optimization,the simulated 64-element planar radio antenna array shows that the maximum sidelobe level decreases by 1.79 dB,and the beamwidth narrows by 3°.Within the scan range of±30°,after sparse array optimization,all sidelobe levels decrease,and all beamwidths narrow.This performance improvement can potentially enhance the sensitivity and spatial resolution of radio telescope systems.

文摘We systematically investigate the planar transport properties of the two-dimensional layered compound GaGeTe. The results reveal distinct anisotropies in both the longitudinal and planar Hall resistances as the magnetic field is rotated within the plane, which are well-captured by the planar Hall effect(PHE) model. Further analysis indicates that the primary contribution to the PHE in GaGeTe arises from its ferromagnetic component and anisotropic orbital resistance, rather than topologically nontrivial chiral anomaly. This work deepens our understanding of the PHE mechanism and offers valuable insights for the development of planar Hall sensors based on two-dimensional materials.

文摘To get large dissymmetric factor(g_(lum))of organic circularly polarized luminescence(CPL)materials is still a great challenge.Although helical chirality and planar chirality are usual efficient access to enhancement of CPL,they are not combined together to boost CPL.Here,a new tetraphenylethylene(TPE)tetracycle acid helicate bearing both helical chirality and planar chirality was designed and synthesized.Uniquely,synergy of the helical chirality and planar chirality was used to boost CPL signals both in solution and in helical self-assemblies.In the presence of octadecylamine,the TPE helicate could form helical nanofibers that emitted strong CPL signals with an absolute g_(lum)value up to 0.237.Exceptionally,followed by addition of para-phenylenediamine,the g_(lum)value was successively increased to 0.387 due to formation of bigger helical nanofibers.Compared with that of TPE helicate itself,the CPL signal of the self-assemblies was not only magnified by 104-fold but also inversed,which was very rare result for CPL-active materials.Surprisingly,the interaction of TPE helicate with xylylenediamine even gave a gel,which was transformed into suspension by shaking.Unexpectedly,the suspension showed 40-fold stronger CPL signals than the gel with signal direction inversion each other.Using synergy of the helical chirality and planar chirality to significantly boost CPL intensity provides a new strategy in preparation of organic CPL materials having very large g_(lum)value.

文摘In this paper,a planar junction mid-wavelength infrared(MWIR)photodetector based on an InAs/GaSb type-Ⅱsuper-lattices(T2SLs)is reported.The Intrinsic-πMN superlattices was grown by the molecular beam epitaxy(MBE),followed with a ZnS layer grown by the chemical vapor deposition(CVD).The p-type contact layer was constructed by thermal diffusion in the undoped superlattices.The Zinc atom was successfully realised into the superlattice and a PπMN T2SL structure was con-structed.Furthermore,the effects of different diffusion temperatures on the dark current performance of the devices were researched.The 50%cut-off wavelength of the photodetector is 5.26μm at 77 K with 0 V bias.The minimum dark current density is 8.67×10^(−5) A/cm^(2) and the maximum quantum efficiency of 42.5%,and the maximum detectivity reaches 3.90×10^(10) cm·Hz^(1/2)/W at 77 K.The 640×512 focal plane arrays(FPA)based on the planner junction were fabricated afterwards.The FPA achieves a noise equivalent temperature difference(NETD)of 539 mK.

文摘Quantum error correction is essential for realizing fault-tolerant quantum computing,where both the efficiency and accuracy of the decoding algorithms play critical roles.In this work,we introduce the implementation of the PLANAR algorithm,a software framework designed for fast and exact decoding of quantum codes with a planar structure.The algorithm first converts the optimal decoding of quantum codes into a partition function computation problem of an Ising spin glass model.Then it utilizes the exact Kac–Ward formula to solve it.In this way,PLANAR offers the exact maximum likelihood decoding in polynomial complexity for quantum codes with a planar structure,including the surface code with independent code-capacity noise and the quantum repetition code with circuit-level noise.Unlike traditional minimumweight decoders such as minimum-weight perfect matching(MWPM),PLANAR achieves theoretically optimal performance while maintaining polynomial-time efficiency.In addition,to demonstrate its capabilities,we exemplify the implementation using the rotated surface code,a commonly used quantum error correction code with a planar structure,and show that PLANAR achieves a threshold of approximately p_(uc)≈0.109 under the depolarizing error model,with a time complexity scaling of O(N^(0.69)),where N is the number of spins in the Ising model.

文摘The Görtler vortex is a characteristic flow feature observed in the boundary layer on compression ramp in hypersonic flow.In the context of high-enthalpy plasma flows during aerospace re-entry processes,there is currently a lack of effective means to visualize the boundary layer.In this study,the Nitric Oxide Planar Laser-Induced Fluorescence(NO-PLIF)technique was employed to visualize the boundary layer of a compression ramp in a 50-MW arc-heated plasma wind tunnel.Görtler-like vortex structures were observed in the boundary layer of the ramp.This is the first time that Görtler vortices have been clearly observed in a high-enthalpy plasma flow.By varying the flow conditions,the Görtler vortices persisted in the boundary layer of the ramp when the total enthalpy of the arc-heated wind tunnel exceeded 12.3 MJ/kg.Several image processing techniques were applied to extract the structure of high-speed Görtler streaks,and the position of the high-speed streaks was found to be non-fixed,whereas the average Görtler wavelength remained at approximately 30 mm at a 10°ramp and showed limited variation with the total enthalpy.Additionally,a sheet-forming optics system with an adjustable angle and height was designed to enable visualization of the Görtler vortices in the boundary layer of the ramp at different angles and heights.The vortices on the low-angle ramp exhibited better stability and shorter wavelengths.Visualization results at different heights confirmed that the Görtler vortex wavelength was approximately twice the boundary layer thickness.This study demonstrates the feasibility and potential of the PLIF technique for the visualization of the boundary layer in plasma flows,especially with regard to Görtler vortices.

文摘We present a compact cold atom platform where an optical grating chip and planar coil chip are placed inside a compact vacuum chamber to create a magneto-optical trap.This approach significantly reduces the system volume to about 20×20×20 cm^(3) compared to conventional vacuum systems and offers greater flexibility in accessing the trapped atoms.We demonstrate the trapping of 3×10^(5) cold rubidium atoms at a temperature of 100μK in a vacuum pressure below 10^(−7) mbar.The simplified optical geometry,low power consumption,and high degree of integration make this a promising platform for portable and versatile cold-atom devices in quantum sensing,timing,and information processing.
