Optical twists in phase and amplitude

open access: yesOptics Express, 2011
Light beams with helical phase profile correspond to photons having orbital angular momentum (OAM). A Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) beam is an example where its helical phase sets a phase-singularity at the optical axis and forms a ring-shaped transverse amplitude profile.

Chemical-Physical Characterization of a Binary Mixture of a Twist Bend Nematic Liquid Crystal with a Smectogen

open access: yesCrystals, 2020
Nematic twist-bend phases (NTB) are new types of nematic liquid crystalline phases with attractive properties for future electro-optic applications. However, most of these states are monotropic or are stable only in a narrow high temperature range.

Order and Frustration in Chiral Liquid Crystals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
This paper reviews the complex ordered structures induced by chirality in liquid crystals. In general, chirality favors a twist in the orientation of liquid-crystal molecules. In some cases, as in the cholesteric phase, this favored twist can be achieved

Twist Elasticity and Anchoring in a Lamellar Nematic Phase [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2004
Electro-optic measurements were performed on a lamellar nematic phase in which the mesogenic moieties lie in lamellae that are separated by partially perfluorinated side groups. The twist elastic constant K22, viscosity gamma(1), and the quadratic and quartic anchoring strength coefficients are reported.

Kink oscillations in magnetic tubes with twisted annulus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Aims.We study kink waves in a magnetic flux tube modelled as a straight core surrounded by a magnetically twisted annulus, both embedded in a straight ambient external field, and derive the dispersion relation for this configuration.

A 6.5 GHz-11.5 GHz source using a grid amplifier with a twist reflector [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The authors have constructed and tested an oscillator using a grid amplifier with external feedback from a twist reflector. The twist reflector serves two functions; it changes the output polarization to match the input, and its position sets the ...

Equilibrium phase diagram and thermal responses of charged DNA-virus rod-suspensions at low ionic strengths

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The collective behavior of DNA is important for exploring new types of bacteria in the means of detection, which is greatly interested in the understanding of interactions between DNAs in living systems.

Phase diagrams of charged colloidal rods: can a uniaxial charge distribution break chiral symmetry? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We construct phase diagrams for charged rodlike colloids within the second-virial approximation as a function of rod concentration, salt concentration, and colloidal charge.

Localization Detection Based on Quantum Dynamics

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
Detecting many-body localization (MBL) typically requires the calculation of high-energy eigenstates using numerical approaches. This study investigates methods that assume the use of a quantum device to detect disorder-induced localization.
