With this pseudopotential description, we numerically investigate the behavior of the fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states both in the lowest Landau level (LLL) and first excited Landau level (1LL). The enhancements of the 7/3 FQH state on the 1LL for a small tilted magnetic field are observed when layer thickness is larger than some critical values, while the gap of the 1/3 state in the LLL monotonically reduced with increasing the in-plane field. From the static structure factor calculation, we find that the systems are strongly anisotropic and finally enter into a stripe phase with a large tilting. With considering the Landau level mixing correction on the two-body interaction, we find the strong LL mixing cancels the enhancements of the FQH states in the 1LL.展开更多

Based on the mean field theory, we obtained the zero temperature phase diagram of the system which exhibits three phases, plane wave(PW) phase, striped wave(SW) phase, and zero momentum(ZM) phase. It was shown that with a growing in-plane field,both SW and ZM phases will eventually turn into the PW phase. Furthermore, we adopted the Bogoliubov theory to study the excitation spectrum as well as the sound speed.展开更多

In this study, we address this problem by making it into a reliable type with trapezoid-shaped nanomagnets, the shape anisotropy of which helps to offer the robustness. The building method of the proposed corner wire interconnect is discussed,and both its static and dynamic magnetization properties are investigated. Static micromagnetic simulation demonstrates that it can work correctly and reliably. Dynamic response results are reached by imposing an ac microwave field on the proposed corner wire. It is found that strong ferromagnetic resonance absorption appears at a low frequency. With the help of a very small ac field with the peak resonance frequency, the required static Zeeman field to switch the corner wire is significantly decreased by ~21 m T. This novel interconnect would pave the way for the realization of reliable and low power nanomagnetic logic circuits.展开更多

Transcranial magnetic stimulation offers a unique advantage in that it can distinguish between the corticospinal tract and the non-CST by analyzing the characteristics of a motor-evoked potential. A 15 year-old female showed right hemiparesis, due to intracerebral hemorrhage in the left corona radiata, and the posterior limb of the internal capsule. Diffusion tensor tractography revealed that the tracts of both hemispheres originated from the precentral gyrus, and descended through the known CST pathway. Specifically, the tract of the affected hemisphere descended through an isolated area in the leukomalactic lesion at the posterior limb level. In addition, the characteristics of the motor-evoked potential obtained from the right hand when stimulating the hot spot of the left motor cortex corresponded to a CST. In conclusion, we report on a patient with intracerebral hemorrhage who showed an isolated CST in a leukomalactic lesion. This result suggests the importance of saving the adjacent area or penumbra around a hematoma after an intracerebral hemorrhage.展开更多

This offers a new possibility of applying rotational magnetization curves to determine the firstand second-order anisotropy constant in these films. In this paper we report a theoretical derivation of rotational magnetization curve in hexagonal crystal system with easy-plane anisotropy based on the principle of the minimum total energy. This model is applied to calculate and analyze the rotational magnetization process for magnetic spherical particles with hexagonal easy-plane anisotropy when rotating the external magnetic field in the basal plane. The theoretical calculations are consistent with Monte Carlo simulation results. It is found that to well reproduce experimental curves, the effect of coercive force on the magnetization reversal process should be fully considered when the intensity of the external field is much weaker than that of the anisotropy field. Our research proves that the rotational magnetization curve from VSM measurement provides an effective access to analyze the in-plane anisotropy constant K3 in hexagonal compounds, and the suitable experimental condition to measure K3 is met when the ratio of the magnitude of the external field to that of the anisotropy field is around 0.2.展开更多

Excellent microwave permeability is achieved at 0.4 Pa argon pressure: fr is 3.32 GHz, the real and imaginary part of permeability at 0.5 GHz are 104 and 61, respectively. In addition, the thickness effect on permeability is also studied. The minimum damping can be achieved at the thinnest film. Different sources contributed to in-plane anisotropy are discussed briefly. The deviation between the peak frequency of the imaginary part and the zero-crossing frequency of the real part of permeability is also presented.展开更多
