Theory of Nb-Zr Alloy Superconductivity and First Experimental Demonstration for Superconducting Radio-Frequency Cavity Applications

Kavli Affiliate: David A. Muller | First 5 Authors: Nathan S. Sitaraman, Zeming Sun, Ben Francis, Ajinkya C. Hire, Thomas Oseroff | Summary: Niobium-zirconium (Nb-Zr) alloy is an old superconductor that is a promising new candidate for superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavity applications. Using density-functional and Eliashberg theories, we show that addition of Zr to a […]

Multimode Nonlinear Dynamics in Anomalous Dispersion Spatiotemporal Mode-locked Lasers

Kavli Affiliate: Frank W. Wise | First 5 Authors: Yuhang Wu, Demetrios N. Christodoulides, Frank W. Wise, , | Summary: Spatiotemporal mode-locking in a laser with anomalous dispersion is investigated. Mode-locked states with varying modal content can be observed, but we find it difficult to observe highly multimode states. We describe the properties of these […]
