A finite-temperature liquid-quasicrystal transition in a lattice model

open access: yes, 2010
We consider a tiling model of the two-dimensional square-lattice, where each site is tiled with one of the sixteen Wang tiles. The ground states of this model are all quasi-periodic.

An Algebraic Invariant for Substitution Tiling Systems

open access: yesGeometriae Dedicata, 1998
We consider tilings of Euclidean spaces by polygons or polyhedra, in particular, tilings made by a substitution process, such as the Penrose tilings of the plane. We define an isomorphism invariant related to a subgroup of rotations and compute it for various examples. We also extend our analysis to more general dynamical systems.

Robust Spot Melting by 3D Spot Arrangements in Electron Beam Powder Bed Fusion

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This work proposes an approach to replace separately melted contours for spot melting in electron beam powder fusion. Adapting the spot arrangements close to the contour combined with stacking yields a comparable surface quality without the inherent challenges of separate contours, as demonstrated, by electron optical images and roughness measurements.

Tilings, tiling spaces and topology

open access: yes, 2018
To understand an aperiodic tiling (or a quasicrystal modeled on an aperiodic tiling), we construct a space of similar tilings, on which the group of translations acts naturally. This space is then an (abstract) dynamical system.

On the Behavior of Tile Assembly System at High Temperatures [PDF]

open access: yesComputability, 2012
Behavior of Winfree's tile assembly system (TAS) at high temperatures is investigated in combination with integer programming of a specific form called threshold programming. First, we propose a way to build bridges from the Boolean satisfiability problem (SAT) to threshold programming, and further to TAS's behavior, in order to prove the NP-hardness ...

Multimodal Data‐Driven Microstructure Characterization

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A self‐consistent autonomous workflow for EBSP‐based microstructure segmentation by integrating PCA, GMM clustering, and cNMF with information‐theoretic parameter selection, requiring no user input. An optimal ROI size related to characteristic grain size is identified.

Dual-band topological Bott insulators in Ammann–Beenker-tiling square photonic quasicrystals

open access: yesJPhys Photonics
In this work, we study topological states in Ammann–Beenker-tiling photonic quasicrystals made of magneto-optical materials. While conventional topological states in photonic systems with crystalline symmetry are characterized by topological invariants ...

Structural transitions in vortex systems with anisotropic interactions

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2018
We introduce a model of vortices in type-II superconductors with a four-fold anisotropy in the vortex–vortex interaction potential. Using numerical simulations we show that the vortex lattice undergoes structural transitions as the anisotropy is ...

The dawning era of comprehensive transcriptome analysis in cellular microbiology

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2010
Bacteria rapidly change their transcriptional patterns during infection in order to adapt to the host environment. To investigate host-bacteria interactions, various strategies including the use of animal infection models, in vitro assay systems and ...

All‐in‐One Analog AI Hardware: On‐Chip Training and Inference with Conductive‐Metal‐Oxide/HfOx ReRAM Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An all‐in‐one analog AI accelerator is presented, enabling on‐chip training, weight retention, and long‐term inference acceleration. It leverages a BEOL‐integrated CMO/HfOx ReRAM array with low‐voltage operation (<1.5 V), multi‐bit capability over 32 states, low programming noise (10 nS), and near‐ideal weight transfer.
