Electron-Beam Writing of Atomic-Scale Reconstructions at Oxide Interfaces

Kavli Affiliate: Andrea D. Caviglia | First 5 Authors: Greta Segantini, Chih-Ying Hsu, Carl Willem Rischau, Patrick Blah, Mattias Matthiesen | Summary: The epitaxial growth of complex oxides enables the production of high-quality films, yet substrate choice is restricted to certain symmetry and lattice parameters, thereby limiting the technological applications of epitaxial oxides. In comparison, […]

The graphene squeeze-film microphone

Kavli Affiliate: P. G. Steeneken | First 5 Authors: M. P. Abrahams, J. Martinez, P. G. Steeneken, G. J. Verbiest, | Summary: Most microphones operate by detecting the sound-pressure induced motion of a membrane. In contrast, here we introduce a microphone that operates by monitoring the sound-pressure-induced modulation of the compressibility of air. By driving […]

Joint Power Allocation and Beamforming Design for Active IRS-Aided Directional Modulation Secure Systems

Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Yifan Zhao, Xiaoyu Wang, Kaibo Zhou, Xuehui Wang, Yan Wang | Summary: Since the secrecy rate (SR) performance improvement obtained by secure directional modulation (DM) network is limited, an active intelligent reflective surface (IRS)-assisted DM network is considered to attain a high SR. To address the SR […]
