The conversion between electrical and acoustic signals in piezoelectric materials is of fundamental importance for their applications. Because of the much slower speed of sound than speed of light in ...

The symposium was held at Kazan, Russia from 4 – 10 September 2016. EXON-2016 was dedicated to the problems of producing and investigating nuclei far from the line of stability. The main goal of the ...

The goal of the eighth industrial fluid properties simulation challenge was to test the ability of molecular simulation methods to predict the adsorption of organic adsorbates in activated carbon ...

We experimentally demonstrate planar lenses based on nanoscale slit arrays in a metallic film. Our lens structures consist of optically thick gold films with micron-size arrays of closely spaced, ...

Figure 2: Electromagnetic simulation of the leaky surface plasmon polariton (SPP) mode supported by the two metal stripes used in the double-slit experiment. To simulate the double-slit diffraction ...
