Determination of the Superconducting Penetration Depth From Coplanar-Waveguide Measurements

We introduce a novel transmission-line method for determining the penetration depth in thin high-temperature superconducting (HTS) films. The method is based on the accurate measurement of the inductance per unit length of a superconducting coplanar-waveguide (CPW) transmission line fabricated on the HTS sample. Using the experimentally obtained inductance per unit length, we interpolate the penetration depth from a table of numerically determined values of inductance (per unit length) as a function of penetration depth, calculated from a coupled transmission-line model. A novelty of our procedure is the utilization of the multiline thru-reflect-line (TRL) method and the calibration-comparison method to accurately determine the inductance per unit length of the superconducting transmission line. By measuring different CPW geometries patterned onto the same thin-film sample, we can verify our penetration depth values. We demonstrate this technique by extracting the penetration depth for several different HTS films at 76 K. Estimated uncertainties in the extracted penetration depth are also provided.

The Metal-Dielectric Resonator Method of Measuring the Parameters of Radio Materials

The use of symmetrical H- and E-modes and asymmetrical E-modes in a longitudinally anisotropic dielectric cylinder with metal mirrors at the ends to measure its permittivity and dielectric loss tangent is considered. It is shown that the method has wider possibilities compared with the IEC-61338 recommendations. The results of a measurement of the dielectric parameters of a number of materials in the 2–78 GHz frequency band, including the permittivity tensor of sapphire, are presented. __________ Translated from Izmeritel'naya Tekhnika, No. 9, pp. 65–70, September, 2005.

A fast integral approach for drag force calculation due to oscillatory slip stokes flows

In this paper, we describe an efficient numerical method for modelling oscillatory incompressible slip Stokes flows in three dimensions. The efficiency is achieved by employing an integral approach combined with an accelerated boundary‐element‐method (BEM) solver. First the integral representations for slip flows with two different slip models are formulated. The resulting integral equations are then solved using the BEM combined with the precorrected‐FFT accelerated technique. 3D numerical codes have been developed based on the method described above. These codes are then used to calculate the drag forces on oscillating objects immersed in an unbounded slip flow. Three objects are considered, namely a sphere, a pair of plates and a comb structure. The simulated drag forces on these objects obtained from the two slip models are compared. In the sphere case, the simulated results are also compared with the analytical solutions for both the steady‐state case and the no‐slip oscillatory case and are found to be in good agreement. In addition, qualitative comparison of the simulation results with the experimental results in the plate problem is also presented in this paper. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Spontaneous emission from a three-level atom placed in three-dimensional photonic crystals in the long-time limit

The paper describes the spontaneous emission from a three-level atom placed in a periodic dielectric microstructure which exhibits a complete three-dimensional photonic band gap. By using the Euler approach, the upper level population of the atom is calculated for a wide range of relationships between the Rabi frequency and the detuning of the atomic transition frequency from the upper band edge. The results indicate that there are three cases of the relationship between Rabi frequency and detuning, which determine distinctive states of the atomic population in the long-time limit. When the detuning is greater than the Rabi frequency, the upper level has a zero steady-state atomic population, which leads to enhancement of spontaneous emission. When the magnitude of the detuning is less than the Rabi frequency, the upper level has a nonzero steady-state atomic population, which leads to suppression of spontaneous emission. When the negative detuning is greater than the Rabi frequency, the upper level has a nondecaying oscillatory-state atomic population due to long-time atomic splitting. These three properties of the spontaneous emission are relevant to several optical devices on an atomic scale, such as optical memories, switches and clocks.     

A 10-MHz SOI-Based Face Shear Square Micromechanical Resonator

A 10-MHz face shear (FS) square micromechanical resonator based on silicon-on-insulator (SOI) technology is presented in this paper. In order to examine the improvement of quality factor as well as motional resistance Rx in this structure, the center-stem anchor is employed in this study. The benefit of anchoring the square in the center, which is the nodal point, is that the energy losses through the anchor can be minimized. Hence, a quality factor value of 2.0 million and the motional resistance of 8.2 kΩ can be obtained with an FS mode resonator via finite element (FE) simulation. The results show the significance of the FS mode in this design, not only in its structure but also in its square-extensional mode and Lame-mode. Additionally, an SOI-based fabrication process is proposed to support the design.     

A novel proposal for all optical 3 to 8 decoder based on nonlinear ring resonators

In this paper, a 3 to 8 optical decoder was proposed using nonlinear photonic crystal ring resonators. For realizing the 3 to 8 decoder, we combined seven 1 to 2 optical decoders. In the proposed structure, X, Y and Z serve as input ports. By combination of these ports, one can control which output port to be ON. The maximum time delay of the proposed structure is about 6?ps.
