Ferromagnetic resonance study of polycrystalline Fe_{1-x}V_x alloy thin films
Ferromagnetic resonance has been used to study the magnetic properties and
magnetization dynamics of polycrystalline FeV alloy films with
. Films were produced by co-sputtering from separate Fe and V
targets, leading to a composition gradient across a Si substrate. FMR studies
were conducted at room temperature with a broadband coplanar waveguide at
frequencies up to 50 GHz using the flip-chip method. The effective
demagnetization field and the Gilbert damping
parameter have been determined as a function of V concentration. The
results are compared to those of epitaxial FeV films
Strategy for designing broadband epsilon-near-zero metamaterial with loss compensation by gain media
A strategy is proposed to design the broadband gain-doped epsilon-near-zero
(GENZ) metamaterial. Based on the Milton representation of effective
permittivity, the strategy starts in a dimensionless spectral space, where the
effective permittivity of GENZ metamaterial is simply determined by a pole-zero
structure corresponding to the operating frequency range. The physical
structure of GENZ metamaterial is retrieved from the pole-zero structure via a
tractable inverse problem. The strategy is of great advantage in practical
applications and also theoretically reveals the cancellation mechanism
dominating the broadband near-zero permittivity phenomenon in the spectral
space
Super congruences and Euler numbers
Let be a prime. We prove that
, where E_0,E_1,E_2,... are Euler numbers. Our new approach is of
combinatorial nature. We also formulate many conjectures concerning super
congruences and relate most of them to Euler numbers or Bernoulli numbers.
Motivated by our investigation of super congruences, we also raise a conjecture
on 7 new series for , and the constant
(with (-) the Jacobi symbol), two of which are
and
\sum_{k>0}(15k-4)(-27)^{k-1}/(k^3\binom{2k}{k}^2\binom{3k}k)=K.$
Electron-doped phosphorene: A potential monolayer superconductor
We predict by first-principles calculations that the electron-doped
phosphorene is a potential BCS-like superconductor. The stretching modes at the
Brillouin-zone center are remarkably softened by the electron-doping, which
results in the strong electron-phonon coupling. The superconductivity can be
introduced by a doped electron density () above
cm, and may exist over the liquid helium temperature when cm. The maximum critical temperature is predicted to be
higher than 10 K. The superconductivity of phosphorene will significantly
broaden the applications of this novel material
