SiGeSn laser diodes and method of fabricating same

Description and specifications of a new and distinct cultivar of blackberry plant named ‘APF-404T’ which originated from seed produced by a hand-pollinated cross of Arkansas selections ‘APF-185T’ (a non-patented, unreleased breeding selection) x ‘A-2444T’ (a non-patented, unreleased breeding selection) is provided. This new cultivar of blackberry plant can be distinguished by its thornless canes, primocane-fruiting tendency, and large, sweet fruit. The plants have consistently good plant health and produce fruit suitable for home gardens

Quantum thermal transistor based on the qubit-qutrit coupling

A quantum thermal transistor is designed by the strong coupling between one qubit and one qutrit which are in contact with three heat baths with different temperatures. The thermal behavior is analyzed based on the master equation by both the numerical and the approximately analytic methods. It is shown that the thermal transistor, as a three-terminal device, allows a weak modulation heat current (at the modulation terminal) to switch on/off and effectively modulate the heat current between the other two terminals. In particular, the weak modulation heat current can induce the strong heat current between the other two terminals with the multiple-region amplification of heat current. Furthermore, the heat currents are quite robust to the temperature (current) fluctuation at the lower-temperature terminal within certain range of temperature, so it can behave as a heat current stabilizer.Comment: 9 pages, 8 figure
