Resolution-Adaptive All-Digital Spatial Equalization for mmWave Massive MU-MIMO

Posted by dbos Cornell

Kavli Affiliate: Alyosha Molnar | First 5 Authors: Oscar Castañeda, Seyed Hadi Mirfarshbafan, Shahaboddin Ghajari, Alyosha Molnar, Sven Jacobsson | Summary: All-digital basestation (BS) architectures for millimeter-wave (mmWave) massive multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO), which equip each radio-frequency chain with dedicated data converters, have advantages in spectral efficiency, flexibility, and baseband-processing simplicity over hybrid analog-digital solutions.

Inhibited nonradiative decay at all exciton densities in monolayer semiconductors

Posted by dbos Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: Ali Javey | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: Most optoelectronic devices operate at high photocarrier densities, where all semiconductors suffer from enhanced nonradiative recombination. Nonradiative processes proportionately reduce photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield (QY), a performance metric that directly dictates the maximum device efficiency. Although transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) monolayers exhibit […]

Quantifying Variability of YSOs in the Mid-IR Over Six Years with NEOWISE

Posted by klaurent Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Gregory Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Wooseok Park, Jeong-Eun Lee, Carlos Contreras Peña, Doug Johnstone, Gregory Herczeg | Summary: Variability in young stellar objects (YSOs) can be caused by various time-dependent phenomena associated with star formation, including accretion rates, geometric changes in the circumstellar disks, stochastic hydromagnetic interactions between stellar surfaces and inner […]

The JCMT Transient Survey: Four Year Summary of Monitoring the Submillimeter Variability of Protostars

Posted by klaurent Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Gregory Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Yong-Hee Lee, Doug Johnstone, Jeong-Eun Lee, Gregory Herczeg, Steve Mairs | Summary: We present the four-year survey results of monthly submillimeter monitoring of eight nearby ($< 500 $pc) star-forming regions by the JCMT Transient Survey. We apply the Lomb-Scargle Periodogram technique to search for and characterize variability […]

Thermodynamics of light management in near-field thermophotovoltaics

Posted by dbos Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: Eli Yablonovitch | First 5 Authors: Georgia T. Papadakis, Meir Orenstein, Eli Yablonovitch, Shanhui Fan, | Summary: We evaluate near-field thermophotovoltaic (TPV) energy conversion systems focusing in particular on their open-circuit voltage (Voc). Unlike previous analyses based largely on numerical simulations with fluctuational electrodynamics, here, we develop an analytic model that captures the […]

Smallest Remnants of Early Matter Domination

Posted by klaurent Chicago

Kavli Affiliate: Albert Stebbins | First 5 Authors: Gabriela Barenboim, Nikita Blinov, Albert Stebbins, , | Summary: The evolution of the universe prior to Big Bang Nucleosynthesis could have gone through a phase of early matter domination (EMD) which enhanced the growth of small-scale dark matter structure. If EMD was long enough, self-gravitating objects formed […]
