Surface Plasmon Excitation and Localization by Metal-Coated Axicon Prism

open access: yesMicromachines, 2012
Collimated Gaussian beams are efficiently localized at the apex of a metal-coated axicon prism by surface plasmon excitations. We observed the light scattered at the apex and the light reflected by the prism. Intense scattered light was observed with the

A tunable liquid crystal polarization converter based on hybrid alignment with a deeply rubbed polyimide surface

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2023
This work demonstrates a tunable liquid crystal polarization converter (LCPC) constructed using two conductive glass substrates that are treated with homogeneous alignment and azimuthal alignment, respectively.

Electrode and Microstructure Dependence of Oxygen Diffusion in Ferroelectric Hafnium Zirconium Oxide Thin Films

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Significant nanoscale oxygen diffusion coefficient variations are measured in ferroelectric hafnium zirconium oxide films with grain boundaries and electrode interfaces exhibiting values 104 times larger than the grain cores. Overall coefficients are 10X larger for films prepared with metal nitride electrodes compared to refractory metals. New insights

Orthogonal least squares algorithm for training multi-output radial basis function networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
A constructive learning algorithm for multioutput radial basis function networks is presented. Unlike most network learning algorithms, which require a fixed network structure, this algorithm automatically determines an adequate radial basis function ...

Radial versus Femoral Approach for Left Ventricular Endomyocardial Biopsy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
AIMS: Left ventricular endomyocardial biopsy (LV-EMB) is mostly performed via the femoral artery. We assessed the feasibility and safety of radial versus femoral access in patients undergoing LV-EMB.

Embedded Ferroelectric Nanoclusters Can Drive Polarization Reversal in a Non‐Ferroelectric Polar Film via the Proximity Effect

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Ferroelectric nanoclusters create local internal fields in a normally non‐switchable polar film because of polarization mismatch at their interfaces. That field opposes polarization in the regions with larger polarization and reinforces polarization in the regions with smaller polarization.
