A Hyper-network Based End-to-end Visual Servoing with Arbitrary Desired Poses
Recently, several works achieve end-to-end visual servoing (VS) for robotic
manipulation by replacing traditional controller with differentiable neural
networks, but lose the ability to servo arbitrary desired poses. This letter
proposes a differentiable architecture for arbitrary pose servoing: a
hyper-network based neural controller (HPN-NC). To achieve this, HPN-NC
consists of a hyper net and a low-level controller, where the hyper net learns
to generate the parameters of the low-level controller and the controller uses
the 2D keypoints error for control like traditional image-based visual servoing
(IBVS). HPN-NC can complete 6 degree of freedom visual servoing with large
initial offset. Taking advantage of the fully differentiable nature of HPN-NC,
we provide a three-stage training procedure to servo real world objects. With
self-supervised end-to-end training, the performance of the integrated model
can be further improved in unseen scenes and the amount of manual annotations
can be significantly reduced
Surface plasmon polaritons assisted diffraction in periodic subwavelength holes of metal films with reduced interplane coupling
Metal films grown on Si wafer perforated with a periodic array of
subwavelength holes have been fabricated and anomalous enhanced transmission in
the mid-infrared regime has been observed. High order transmission peaks up to
Si(2,2) are clearly revealed due to the large dielectric constant contrast of
the dielectrics at the opposite interfaces. Si(1,1) peak splits at oblique
incidence both in TE and TM polarization, which confirms that anomalous
enhanced transmission is a surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) assisted
diffraction phenomenon. Theoretical transmission spectra agree excellently with
the experimental results and confirm the role of SPPs diffraction by the
lattice.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figures, 26 reference

Fabrication of Spin-Transfer Nano-Oscillator by Colloidal Lithography
We fabricate nanoscale spin-transfer oscillators (STOs) by utilizing colloidal nanoparticles as a lithographic mask. By this approach, high quality STO devices can be fabricated, and as an example the fabricated STO devices using MgO magnetic tunnel junction as the basic cell exhibit current-induced microwave emission with a large frequency tunability of 0.22 GHz/mA. Compared to the conventional approaches that involve a step of defining nanoscale elements by means of electron beam lithography, which is not readily available for many groups, our strategy for STO fabrication does not require the sophisticated equipment (~ million dollars per unit) and expensive lithography resist, while being cost-effective and easy to use in laboratory level. This will accelerate efforts to implement STO into on-chip integrated high-radio frequency applications
Depositing Molecular Graphene Nanoribbons on Ag(111) by Electrospray Controlled Ion Beam Deposition: Self-Assembly and On-Surface Transformations
The chemical processing of low-dimensional carbon nanostructures is crucial for their integration in future devices. Here we apply a new methodology in atomically precise engineering by combining multistep solution synthesis of N-doped molecular graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) with mass-selected ultra-high vacuum electrospray controlled ion beam deposition on surfaces and real-space visualisation by scanning tunnelling microscopy. We demonstrate how this method yields solely a controllable amount of single, otherwise unsublimable, GNRs of 2.9 nm length on a planar Ag(111) surface. This methodology allows for further processing by employing on-surface synthesis protocols and exploiting the reactivity of the substrate. Following multiple chemical transformations, the GNRs provide reactive building blocks to form extended, metal-organic coordination polymers.This project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreements No. 946223 and No. 899895.

Scaling of Berry-curvature monopole dominated large linear positive magnetoresistance
The linear positive magnetoresistance (LPMR) is a widely observed phenomenon
in topological materials, which is promising for potential applications on
topological spintronics. However, its mechanism remains ambiguous yet and the
effect is thus uncontrollable. Here, we report a quantitative scaling model
that correlates the LPMR with the Berry curvature, based on a ferromagnetic
Weyl semimetal CoS2 that bears the largest LPMR of over 500% at 2 Kelvin and 9
Tesla, among known magnetic topological semimetals. In this system, masses of
Weyl nodes existing near the Fermi level, revealed by theoretical calculations,
serve as Berry-curvature monopoles and low-effective-mass carriers. Based on
the Weyl picture, we propose a relation , with B being the applied magnetic field and the average Berry curvature near the Fermi surface, and further
introduce temperature factor to both MR/B slope (MR per unit field) and
anomalous Hall conductivity, which establishes the connection between the model
and experimental measurements. A clear picture of the linearly slowing down of
carriers, i.e., the LPMR effect, is demonstrated under the cooperation of the
k-space Berry curvature and real-space magnetic field. Our study not only
provides an experimental evidence of Berry curvature induced LPMR for the first
time, but also promotes the common understanding and functional designing of
the large Berry-curvature MR in topological Dirac/Weyl systems for magnetic
sensing or information storage
Current-driven magnetization switching in a van der Waals ferromagnet Fe3GeTe2
The recent discovery of ferromagnetism in two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals
(vdW) materials holds promises for novel spintronic devices with exceptional
performances. However, in order to utilize 2D vdW magnets for building
spintronic nanodevices such as magnetic memories, key challenges remain in
terms of effectively switching the magnetization from one state to the other
electrically. Here, we devise a bilayer structure of Fe3GeTe2/Pt, in which the
magnetization of few-layered Fe3GeTe2 can be effectively switched by the
spin-orbit torques (SOTs) originated from the current flowing in the Pt layer.
The effective magnetic fields corresponding to the SOTs are further
quantitatively characterized using harmonic measurements. Our demonstration of
the SOT-driven magnetization switching in a 2D vdW magnet could pave the way
for implementing low-dimensional materials in the next-generation spintronic
applications
