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Multispectral imaging plays a crucial role in simultaneously capturing detailed spatial and spectral information,which is fundamental for understanding complex phenomena across various domains.Traditional systems face significant challenges,such as large volume,static function,and limited wavelength selectivity.Here,we propose an innovative dynamic reflective multispectral imaging system via a thermally responsive cholesteric liquid crystal based planar lens.By employing advanced photoalignment technology,the phase distribution of a lens is imprinted to the liquid crystal director.The reflection band is reversibly tuned from 450 nm to 750 nm by thermally controlling the helical pitch of the cholesteric liquid crystal,allowing selectively capturing images in different colors.This capability increases imaging versatility,showing great potential in precision agriculture for assessing crop health,noninvasive diagnostics in healthcare,and advanced remote sensing for environmental monitoring.

文摘Pursuing new two-dimensional(2D)materials has been a hot topic in materials science,driven by their potential for diverse applications.Recent research has unveiled stable planar hypercoordinate motifs with unconventional geometric arrangements and bonding patterns that facilitate the synthesis of new 2D materials with diverse applications.Among these,yet the design of 2D transition metal systems featuring planar pentacoordinate boron(ppB)is particularly intriguing.Here we address this gap by proposing a novel family of transition metal boride monolayers(MBenes)composed of ppB and heptacoordinate M motifs.The novelty of our MBenes stems from their distinct atomic arrangements and bonding configurations,setting them apart from traditional 2D materials.High-throughput calculations identified 10 stable MBenes(with the stoichiometry of MB,M=Cr,Fe,Co,Ni,Cu,Mo,Pd,Ag,Pt,Au)with exceptional thermodynamic,dynamic,thermal,and mechanical stabilities attributed to strong BB covalent bonds and MB ionic interactions.Notably,five of these MBenes(M=Ni,Pd,Pt,Ag,Au)hold high promise as topological superconducting materials with superconducting transition temperatures of 2.4-5.2 K.This discovery not only enriches the family of topological superconducting materials but also opens new avenues for quantum device development.Meanwhile,FeB monolayer exhibits robust ferromagnetic properties with a high Curie temperature of~750 K,which is particularly significant for spintronics applications.In addition,NiB and CuB MBenes demonstrate extremely low sodium diffusion barriers(about 30 and 90 meV)and high sodium storage capacities(788 and 734 mAh g1,respectively),making them promising anode materials for sodium-ion batteries(SIBs).This study expands the selection of electrode materials for SIBs and mitigates some existing limitations in battery technology.Overall,these findings underscore the multifunctional potential of MBenes,positioning them as transformative materials for quantum computing,spintronics,and energy storage applications.

文摘In this paper,a 4×4 wideband linearly po-larization(LP)antenna array is proposed by using pla-nar dual-arm spiral structures.Wideband balun struc-tures,composed of microstrip line-fed coupling slots,are adopted to feed two dual-arms spiral structures with opposite phases.Then,by combining the left-and right-hand circular polarizations,a linearly polar-ization is achieved.The proposed antenna has a wide operating bandwidth due to the wideband nature of the spiral structure.Simulated results show that the an-tenna element can achieve a 68.73%impedance band-width and a maximum gain of 6.64 dBi within 19.44–38.83 GHz.A 4×4 array prototype is designed to verify the concept.Measured results show that an impedance bandwidth of 63.73%is obtained.The pro-posed array has the merits of a wide bandwidth,a low profile,a low cost,and a small size,which is promis-ing for the application in millimeter wave wireless sys-tems.

文摘The Pfaffian property of graphs is of fundamental importance in graph theory,as it precisely characterizes those graphs for which the number of perfect matchings can be computed in polynomial time with respect to the number of edges.The study of Pfaffian graphs originated from the enumeration of perfect matching in planar graphs.References[5,6,8]demonstrated that every planar graph is Pfaffian.Therefore,the Pfaffian property and planarity of graphs play a vital role in modern matching theory.This paper contributes a complete characterization of the Pfaffian property and planarity of connected Cayley graphs over the dicyclic group T_(4n) of order 4n(n≥3),shows that the Cayley graph Cay(T_(4n),S)is Pfaffian if and only if n is odd and S={a^(k_(1)),a^(2n−k_(1)),ba^(k_(2)),ba^(n+k_(2))},where 1≤k_(1)≤n−1,0≤k_(2)≤n−1 and(k_(1),n)=1,and furthermore,shows that Cay(T4n,S)is never planar.

文摘Planar lightwave circuit(PLC)splitters have long been foundational components in passive optical communication networks,achieving commercial success since the 1990s.However,their inherent fixed splitting ratios impose significant limitations on capacity expansion,often requiring physical replacement and causing service disruptions.Thermally tunable optical splitters address this challenge by enabling adjustable splitting ratios,but their operation is contingent upon a continuous power supply and complex driving systems.In this work,we present a novel,non-volatile tunable PLC platform based on Sb_(2)S_(3)phase-change materials.The proposed device,which incor-porates a Mach-Zehnder interferometer(MZI)optical switch structure,offers tunable splitting ratios via laser-direct writing or ohmic heating,providing flexible reconfiguration capabilities.Experimental results demonstrate non-volatile power splitting ranging from 50∶50 to 20∶80,with a modest increase of approximately 1 dB in additional loss.This work highlights the potential of the proposed platform for low-power,high-efficiency,and reconfigurable photonic networks.

文摘The precise synthesis of planar chiral pillar[n]arenes(PAs)faces significant challenges due to their inherent dynamic racemization induced by rapid molecular flipping.To address this issue and enhance conformational stability of these macrocycles,we have developed a strategic approach involving the introduction of sterically bulky aryl(sp^(2))substituents at the molecular rims through dynamic kinetic resolution(DKR).A series of robust and chirality-aligned homo-and hetero-diaryl PAs(n=5,6)were achieved with excellent enantioselectivity(>95%ee)via Pd-catalyzed asymmetric Suzuki–Miyaura coupling reactions.Mechanism study revealed axial steric hindrance,rather than radial substitution,governs conformational chirality-locking in pillar[n]arenes.This work not only provides an attractive protocol for the enantioselective synthesis of planar chiral pillar[n]arenes,but also enriches the library of macrocycles for promising applications in chiral molecular machines,enantioselective sensors,and chiral luminescent materials.

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.
