Spin Pumping and Inverse Spin Hall Effect in Platinum: The Essential Role of Spin-Memory Loss at Metallic Interfaces
Through combined ferromagnetic resonance, spin-pumping and inverse spin Hall
effect experiments in Co|Pt bilayers and Co|Cu|Pt trilayers, we demonstrate
consistent values of spin diffusion length
nm and of spin Hall angle for Pt. Our
data and model emphasize on the partial depolarization of the spin current at
each interface due to spin-memory loss. Our model reconciles the previously
published spin Hall angle values and explains the different scaling lengths for
the ferromagnetic damping and the spin Hall effect induced voltage.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures (main text) and 8 pages supplementary. Published

Experimental evidences of a large extrinsic spin Hall effect in AuW alloy
We report an experimental study of a gold-tungsten alloy (7% at. W
concentration in Au host) displaying remarkable properties for spintronics
applications using both magneto-transport in lateral spin valve devices and
spin-pumping with inverse spin Hall effect experiments. A very large spin Hall
angle of about 10% is consistently found using both techniques with the
reliable spin diffusion length of 2 nm estimated by the spin sink experiments
in the lateral spin valves. With its chemical stability, high resistivity and
small induced damping, this AuW alloy may find applications in the nearest
future
An operator expansion for the elastic limit
A leading twist expansion in terms of bi-local operators is proposed for the
structure functions of deeply inelastic scattering near the elastic limit , which is also applicable to a range of other processes. Operators of
increasing dimensions contribute to logarithmically enhanced terms which are
supressed by corresponding powers of . For the longitudinal structure
function, in moment () space, all the logarithmic contributions of order
are shown to be resummable in terms of the anomalous dimension of
the leading operator in the expansion.Comment: 9 pages, 1 figure, uses REVTEX 3.1 and axodra
Si1-x Ge x /Si interface profiles measured to sub-nanometer precision using uleSIMS energy sequencing
The utility of energy sequencing for extracting an accurate matrix level interface profile using ultra-low energy SIMS (uleSIMS) is reported. Normally incident O2 + over an energy range of 0.25–2.5 keV were used to probe the interface between Si0.73Ge0.27/Si, which was also studied using high angle annular dark field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM). All the SIMS profiles were linearized by taking the well understood matrix effects on ion yield and erosion rate into account. A method based on simultaneous fitting of the SIMS profiles measured at different energies is presented, which allows the intrinsic sample profile to be determined to sub-nanometer precision. Excellent agreement was found between the directly imaged HAADF-STEM interface and that derived from SIMS
Deep Learning for Cardiologist-level Myocardial Infarction Detection in Electrocardiograms
Myocardial infarction is the leading cause of death worldwide. In this paper,
we design domain-inspired neural network models to detect myocardial
infarction. First, we study the contribution of various leads. This systematic
analysis, first of its kind in the literature, indicates that out of 15 ECG
leads, data from the v6, vz, and ii leads are critical to correctly identify
myocardial infarction. Second, we use this finding and adapt the ConvNetQuake
neural network model--originally designed to identify earthquakes--to attain
state-of-the-art classification results for myocardial infarction, achieving
classification accuracy on a record-wise split, and
classification accuracy on a patient-wise split. These two results represent
cardiologist-level performance level for myocardial infarction detection after
feeding only 10 seconds of raw ECG data into our model. Third, we show that our
multi-ECG-channel neural network achieves cardiologist-level performance
without the need of any kind of manual feature extraction or data
pre-processing.Comment: Accepted to the European Medical and Biological Engineering

Current-Driven Conformational Changes, Charging and Negative Differential Resistance in Molecular Wires
We introduce a theoretical approach based on scattering theory and total
energy methods that treats transport non-linearities, conformational changes
and charging effects in molecular wires in a unified way. We apply this
approach to molecular wires consisting of chain molecules with different
electronic and structural properties bonded to metal contacts. We show that
non-linear transport in all of these systems can be understood in terms of a
single physical mechanism and predict that negative differential resistance at
high bias should be a generic property of such molecular wires.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figure
