    Dipole operator sˉσμνFμνb\bar{s}\sigma_{\mu\nu}F^{\mu\nu}b requires the helicity flip in the involving quark states thus the breaking of chiral U(3)Q×U(3)dU(3)_{Q}\times U(3)_{d}. On the other hand, the bb-quark mass generation is also a consequence of chiral U(3)Q×U(3)dU(3)_{Q}\times U(3)_{d} symmetry breaking. Therefore, in many models, there might be strong correlation between the b→sγb\to s\gamma and bb quark Yukawa coupling. We use non-decoupling MSSM model to illustrate this feature. The light Higgs boson may evade the direct search experiments at LEPII or Tevatron while the 125 GeV Higgs-like boson is identified as the heavy Higgs boson in the spectrum. A light charged Higgs is close to the heavy Higgs boson which is of 125 GeV and its contribution to b→sγb\to s \gamma requires large supersymmetric correction with large PQ and RR symmetry breaking. The large supersymmetric contribution at the same time significantly modifies the bb quark Yukawa co upling. With combined flavor constraints B→XsγB\to X_{s}\gamma and Bs→μ+μ−B_{s}\to \mu^{+}\mu^{-} and direct constraints on Higgs properties, we find best fit scenarios with light stop of O\cal O(500 GeV), negative AtA_{t} around -750 GeV and large μ\mu-term of 2-3 TeV. In addition, reduction in bbˉb\bar{b} partial width may also result in large enhancement of ττ\tau\tau decay branching fraction. Large parameter region in the survival space under all bounds may be further constrained by H→ττH\to \tau\tau if no excess of ττ\tau\tau is confirmed at LHC. We only identify a small parameter region with significant H→hhH\to hh decay that is consistent with all bounds and reduced ττ\tau\tau decay branching fraction.Comment: 18pages, 6 figure

    We report on a theoretical study of the electronic structures of the [111]-oriented, free-standing, zincblende InAs and InP nanowires with hexagonal cross sections by means of an atomistic sp3s∗sp^{3}s^{*} , spin-orbit interaction included, nearest-neighbor, tight-binding method. The band structures and the band state wave functions of these nanowires are calculated and the symmetry properties of the bands and band states are analyzed based on the C3vC_{3v} double point group. It is shown that all bands of these nanowires are doubly degenerate at the Γ\Gamma-point and some of these bands will split into non-degenerate bands when the wave vector kk moves away from the Γ\Gamma-point as a manifestation of spin-splitting due to spin-orbit interaction. It is also shown that the lower conduction bands of these nanowires all show simple parabolic dispersion relations, while the top valence bands show complex dispersion relations and band crossings. The band state wave functions are presented by the spatial probability distributions and it is found that all the band states show 2π/32\pi/3-rotation symmetric probability distributions. The effects of quantum confinement on the band structures of the [111]-oriented InAs and InP nanowires are also examined and an empirical formula for the description of quantization energies of the lowest conduction band and the highest valence band is presented. The formula can simply be used to estimate the enhancement of the band gaps of the nanowires at different sizes as a result of quantum confinement.Comment: 9 pages, 8 figures. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1502.0756

    Method for arbitrary phase transformation by a slab based on transformation optics and the principle of equal optical path

    The optical path lengths travelled by rays across a wavefront essentially determine the resulting phase front irrespective of the shape of a medium according to the principle of equal optical path. Thereupon we propose a method for the transformation between two arbitrary wavefronts by a slab, i.e. the profile of the spatial separation between the two wavefronts is taken to be transformed to a plane surface. Interestingly, for the mutual conversion between planar and curved wavefronts, the method reduce to an inverse transformation method in which it is the reversed shape of the desired wavefront that is converted to a planar one. As an application, three kinds of phase transformation are realized and it is found that the transformation on phase is able to realize some important properties such as phase reversal or compensation, focusing, and expanding or compressing beams, which are further confirmed by numerical simulations. The slab can be applied to realizing compact electromagnetic devices for which the values of the refractive index or the permittivity and permeability can be high or low, positive or negative, or near zero, depending on the choice of coordinate transformations.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figure
