High Dynamic-Range and Very Low Noise K-Band p-HEMT LNA MMIC for LMDS and Satellite Communication
An excellent noise figure and high linearity, K-band p-HEMT LNA MMIC, that incorporates single-bias configuration and negative feedback circuit, has be en developed for LMDS (Local Multi-point Distribution Service) and satellite communication. The third order intercept point (IP3) of this MMIC is 20 dBm, while output power at 1-dB gain compression is 8.5 dBm. The IP3 and noise figure is 19.5 +/- 1 dBm and 1.8 +/- 0.2 dB, respectively, at frequencies between 24 and 32 GHz. The die size of the MMIC is 1.9 mm. This MMIC shows a potential reliable application in high-speed wireless access system

Coexistence of localized and itinerant electrons in BaFe2X3 (X = S and Se) revealed by photoemission spectroscopy
We report a photoemission study at room temperature on BaFe2X3 (X = S and Se)
and CsFe2Se3 in which two-leg ladders are formed by the Fe sites. The Fe 2p
core-level peaks of BaFe2X3 are broad and exhibit two components, indicating
that itinerant and localized Fe 3d sites coexist similar to KxFe2-ySe2. The Fe
2p core-level peak of CsFe2Se3 is rather sharp and is accompanied by a
charge-transfer satellite. The insulating ground state of CsFe2Se3 can be
viewed as a Fe2+ Mott insulator in spite of the formal valence of +2.5. The
itinerant versus localized behaviors can be associated with the stability of
chalcogen p holes in the two-leg ladder structure.Comment: 5 pages, 5 figures, Accepted in publication for Physical Review
HyRec: A fast and highly accurate primordial hydrogen and helium recombination code
We present a state-of-the-art primordial recombination code, HyRec, including
all the physical effects that have been shown to significantly affect
recombination. The computation of helium recombination includes simple analytic
treatments of hydrogen continuum opacity in the He I 2 1P - 1 1S line, the He
I] 2 3P - 1 1S line, and treats feedback between these lines within the
on-the-spot approximation. Hydrogen recombination is computed using the
effective multilevel atom method, virtually accounting for an infinite number
of excited states. We account for two-photon transitions from 2s and higher
levels as well as frequency diffusion in Lyman-alpha with a full radiative
transfer calculation. We present a new method to evolve the radiation field
simultaneously with the level populations and the free electron fraction. These
computations are sped up by taking advantage of the particular sparseness
pattern of the equations describing the radiative transfer. The computation
time for a full recombination history is ~2 seconds. This makes our code well
suited for inclusion in Monte Carlo Markov chains for cosmological parameter
estimation from upcoming high-precision cosmic microwave background anisotropy
measurements.Comment: Version accepted by PRD. Numerical integration switches adapted to be
well behaved for a wide range of cosmologies (Sec. V E). HyRec is available

Superconductivity in metal rich Li-Pd-B ternary Boride
8K superconductivity was observed in the metal rich Li-Pd-B ternary system.
Structural, microstructural, electrical and magnetic investigations for various
compositions proved that Li2Pd3B compound, which has a cubic structure composed
of distorted Pd6B octahedrons, is responsible for the superconductivity. This
is the first observation of superconductivity in metal rich ternary borides
containing alkaline metal and Pd as a late transition metal. The compound
prepared by arc melting has high density, is stable in the air and has an upper
critical field, Hc2(0), of 6T.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figur
