    Near 6 GHz Sezawa Mode Surface Acoustic Wave Resonators using AlScN on SiC

    Full text link
    Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) devices featuring Aluminum Scandium Nitride (AlScN) on a 4H-Silicon Carbide (SiC) substrate, offer a unique blend of high sound velocity, low thermal resistance, substantial piezoelectric response, simplified fabrication, as well as suitability for high-temperature and harsh environment operation. This study presents high-frequency SAW resonators employing AlScN thin films on SiC substrates, utilizing the second SAW mode (referred to as the Sezawa mode). The resonators achieve remarkable performance, boasting a K2 value of 5.5% and a maximum Q-factor (Qmax) of 1048 at 4.7 GHz, outperforming previous benchmarks. Additionally, a SAW resonator with a 960 nm wavelength attains 5.9 GHz frequency with record K2 (4.0%) and Qmax (887). Our study underscores the potential of the AlScN on SiC platform for advanced radio-frequency applications.Comment: 19 pages, 5 figures in main text and 3 figures in supplementar

    Search for dark matter produced in association with bottom or top quarks in √s = 13 TeV pp collisions with the ATLAS detector

    A search for weakly interacting massive particle dark matter produced in association with bottom or top quarks is presented. Final states containing third-generation quarks and miss- ing transverse momentum are considered. The analysis uses 36.1 fb−1 of proton–proton collision data recorded by the ATLAS experiment at √s = 13 TeV in 2015 and 2016. No significant excess of events above the estimated backgrounds is observed. The results are in- terpreted in the framework of simplified models of spin-0 dark-matter mediators. For colour- neutral spin-0 mediators produced in association with top quarks and decaying into a pair of dark-matter particles, mediator masses below 50 GeV are excluded assuming a dark-matter candidate mass of 1 GeV and unitary couplings. For scalar and pseudoscalar mediators produced in association with bottom quarks, the search sets limits on the production cross- section of 300 times the predicted rate for mediators with masses between 10 and 50 GeV and assuming a dark-matter mass of 1 GeV and unitary coupling. Constraints on colour- charged scalar simplified models are also presented. Assuming a dark-matter particle mass of 35 GeV, mediator particles with mass below 1.1 TeV are excluded for couplings yielding a dark-matter relic density consistent with measurements

    A protocol for a scoping review to identify methods used in clinical practice to assess wound odour

    No full text
    Objective: The objective of this scoping review is to map, from wound assessment tools and other literature, the current methods used to assess wound odour in order to answer the following question: Which methods of assessment, validated or otherwise, are currently used in wound assessment tools to assess wound odour? Introduction: Wound assessment includes not only details of the condition of the wound bed but also evaluation of symptoms associated with the wound including that of odour. Odour is cited by clinicians, patients and carers as one of the most distressing wound symptoms. However, there is no consensus on a preferred method to assess odour thus negatively impacting the internal and external validity of many clinical trials and minimising the ability to perform meta-analysis. Eligibility criteria: Any wound assessment tool or framework that includes assessment of wound odour in any wound aetiology and in any care setting. Any systematic or scoping review that includes assessment of wound odour in any wound aetiology and in any care setting. No limits on date of publication or language will be applied. Methods: We will employ the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses extension for scoping reviews (PRISMA-ScR) guidelines for this scoping review and base its structure on the framework proposed by Arksey and O’Malley. Results: A narrative format will summarise extracted data and provide an overview of tools used to assess wound odour. A PRISMA diagram will outline the results of the search strategy. The identified tools will be summarised in table format and stratified according to methods used. Conclusion: The result of this scoping review will be a list of methods used to assess odour in wounds and will be used to inform a subsequent Delphi study to gain consensus on the preferred method to assess wound odour
