Ideal type-II Weyl points in topological circuits by Li, Rujiang, Lv, Bo, Tao, Huibin, Shi, Jinhui, Chong, Yidong, Zhang, Baile, Chen, Hongsheng

“…Weyl points (WPs), nodal degenerate points in three-dimensional (3D) momentum space, are said to be 'ideal' if they are symmetry-related and well-separated, and reside at the same energy and far from nontopological bands. …”

Innovative UWB phase shifters using groove gap-waveguide technology inspired by metasurfaces for beamforming networks operating at 100 GHz by Alibakhshikenari, Mohammad, Zidour, Ali, Virdee, Bal Singh, Kouhalvandi, Lida, Shahid, Saleem, See, Chan Hwang, Limiti, Ernesto

“…The metasurface features a "bed-of-nails" structure, where metal pins are connected to a bottom layer and spaced <λ/4 from a top plate. This configuration provides a UWB stop-band over the 80–110 GHz spectrum, ensuring effective phase shifting at 100 GHz within the ultra-wideband range.…”

An experimental study of lateral charge transfer in silicon nanocrystal layer embedded in SiO2 thin film by Wong, J. I., Chen, T. P., Tay, Y. Y., Liu, P., Yang, M., Liu, Z., Yang, H. Y.

“…With the existence of a continuous nc-Si layer in the spacing regions between the charged device and the neighboring devices, the charging operation induces a large flat-band voltage shift in the neighboring devices, and at the same time the charged device itself is also strongly affected in return. …”

Visible light communication systems supporting wireless data access and indoor positioning applications by Yang, Helin

“…Compared with OFDM-based SCM (OFDM-SCM), FBMC-SCM is capable of mitigating OOBI and therefore requires much smaller guard band (GB) spacing. Simulations and experimental results verify that our proposed FBMC-SCM can improve the effective bandwidth utilization ratio and enhance the positioning accuracy in the integrated VLCP system, compared with OFDM-SCM. …”

Plastic Instability in Co-Cr-Ni-Mo alloy wires drawn with different drawing practices by GVK, Sai Srikanth, Tan, Ming Jen, Liu, Zhenyun

“…The lower instability in the FDD wires at 75% CW, was attributed to the smaller grain size, higher dislocation density and lower twin spacing which contributed to higher γ and m. Plastic strain localization because of shear band formation was noticed in the FDD 95% CW wires, which contributed to lowered ductility and increased instability in the wire due to reduced γ and m. …”

Direction finding for UWB RFID system in dense cluttered environments by Luo, Yanjia

“…Typically, an incident radio wave can be detected by measuring the difference of arrival time or phase between spatially spaced sensors of the antenna array. It becomes challenging due to abundant multipath and obstacles in dense cluttered environments, such as enclosed areas, tunnels or under-ground. …”
