High-speed free-space optical (FSO) communication has emerged as a promising technology for low earth orbit (LEO) region in the last decade. In this paper, we simulate 20 Gbps simplex ground-to-satellite with various wavelengths and transmitter beam pointing error of 0.1 to 2.5 urad. The C-band wavelength is chosen, and a non-return-zero (NRZ) pulse generator with 16 channels hybrid wavelength-mode division multiplexing (WDM-MDM) technique employing Hermite-Gaussian (HG) modes is used to vary the pointing error. The effect of beam pointing error and receiver aperture diameter was discussed in this paper. A transmitter beam pointing error of 2.5 urad can work appropriately at distances of 1000 km and 1500 km, with a BER value of 1.41 × 10−6 and 3.56 × 10−5, respectively. Based on the receiver aperture diameter of 100 cm, it successfully achieves a BER value of 2.4 × 10−8 at the LEO region and a clear eye diagram.

We discuss one-dimensional(1D) spin compass model or 1D Kitaev model in the presence of local bond defects. Three types of local disorders concerning both bond-nature and bond-strength that occur on kitaev materials have been investigated. Using exact diagonalization, two-point spin-spin structural correlations and four-point Out-of-Time-Order Correlators(OTOC) have been computed for the defective spin chains. The proposed quantities give signatures of these defects in terms of their responses to location and strength of defects. A key observation is that the information scrambling in the OTOC space gets trapped at the defect site giving rise to the phenomena of localization of information scrambling thus making these correlators a suitable diagnostic tool to detect and characterize these defects.

In this paper we consider a static, cylindrically symmetric spacetime with coincident f(Q) gravity. Since the field equation of this spacetime in symmetric teleparallel gravity is suitable for choosing the function of f(Q) in the form of power series and exponential forms which are in coherent with cosmological observations, anisotropic perfect fluid solutions of these forms are discussed for this spacetime. Energy densities, directional pressures and energy conditions are plotted and analysed for a few different metric potentials. Although corresponding cosmic strings violate all energy conditions in both f(Q) functions, the corresponding Levi-Civita solution violates all energy conditions in the power law function of f(Q), but for exponential f(Q) gravity they are satisfied in small regions.

The present study reflects the synthesis of MgNb2O6 using hydrofluoric acid via a wet chemical approach, followed by characterizations involving XRD, electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, optical analyses, and impedance spectroscopy. The crystallite size of the synthesized material was determined to be 44 nm through XRD analysis. The lattice parameters of MgNb2O6 a, b, and c, were found to be 14.1998 Å, 5.6844 Å, and 4.9813 Å, respectively. Raman spectroscopy identified molecular bonds ranging from 253 to 1011 cm−1, mainly indicating the presence of metal oxide bonds. EDX spectra confirmed the presence of Mg, Nb, and O atoms in the prepared ceramics, indicating phase purity. FESEM analysis revealed a grain size of approximately 48 nm, with the presence of agglomerated grains. Bright spots in the SAED pattern observed by HRTEM confirmed the crystallinity of the prepared niobate materials, with the HRTEM microstructure showing a particle size near 49 nm. The crystallite size by XRD, grain size by FESEM, and particle size by HRTEM are in accordance with each other. The direct band gap was determined to be approximately 2.76 eV using UV-Visible spectroscopy. Additionally, MgNb2O6 materials exhibited a broad and strong photoluminescence emission near 445 nm with excitation at 270 nm, possibly indicating the presence of radiative defects in the crystalline nanostructure. Furthermore, impedance studies conducted between 40 and 110 MHz demonstrated a decrease in the dielectric constant at higher frequencies, reaching 21.06 at 110 MHz. A low dielectric loss was also observed at 110 MHz. The moderate band gap and strong room-temperature photoluminescence in the visible range make magnesium niobates suitable for possible applications in optical devices. This investigation shows that a dielectric constant near 21 and low dielectric loss can be achieved in the high-frequency range around 110 MHz.

This research work represents a comparative study of the structural, optical, and electronic properties of Cs2TiX6 single halide perovskite solar cell (PSC). The entire work has been carried out by experimental work under ambient conditions and followed by the DFT method. Absorbing material structural parameters (lattice constant, shape), and band gap energy can be easily estimated from the DFT approach which can be compared with the result of experimental work. Our study shows Cs2TiBr6 PSC has better band gap energy of 1.80 eV (numerically) and 1.82 eV (experimentally), open circuit voltage 0.58 V, short circuit current 2.55 mA cm−2 for the photovoltaic application. Also, the higher Zeta potential value of Cs2TiBr6 PSC indicates that it has better material stability and is less volatile compared to Cs2TiI6, Cs2TiCl6, and Cs2TiF6 PSCs. TEM images and the SAED pattern of the active layers show a higher degree of crystallite nature of the PSCs.On the other look, investigated PSC materials Cs2TiBr6, Cs2TiI6, Cs2TiCl6, and Cs2TiF6 have shown visible light emission edges at 358 nm, 375 nm, 363 nm, 735 nm wavelength, and the optical performance area of the Cs2TiBr6, Cs2TiI6, Cs2TiCl6, Cs2TiF6 samples is recorded up to 700 nm, 760 nm, 540 nm, and 660 nm wavelength, respectively.

Metal–organic framework (MOF) is a class of material that is highly porous and modular. Due to their unique properties, MOFs have found applications in gas storage, gas separation, sensing, and supercapacitors. [Zn2(H2L)2(1,2-Bis(4-pyridyl)ethene)4]n, zinc (Zn)-based MOF was used in this work to achieve mode-locked operation in a thulium/holmium-doped fiber laser due to its excellent optical absorption at a wavelength of 1925 nm. The saturable absorber (SA) was fabricated by drop-casting a mixture of Zn-MOF and isopropanol on an arc-shaped fiber. The center wavelength of the mode-locked laser is 1906.75 nm, with a maximum average output power of 3.251 mW. The fundamental repetition rate and the pulse width were 12.89 MHz and 1.772 ps. At the same time, the pulse energy and peak power were 252 pJ and 142 W, respectively. To the authors’ knowledge, this is the first time an MOF has been used for mode-locked pulse generation in a thulium/holmium-doped all-fiber laser. This work extends the use of MOF material as a saturable absorber for mode-locking applications in near-infrared fiber lasers.

The evaporation residue cross sections in synthesizing isotopes of superheavy element Mc (Z = 115) by the hot fusion reactions 48Ca+241,243Am→289,291Mc, 45Sc+240,242,244Pu→285,287,289Mc, 50Ti+236,237Np→286,287Mc, 51V+238U→289Mc, 36S+253Es→289Mc, 46K+248Cm→294Mc, and by the cold fusion reactions 78As+208Pb→286Mc, 76Ge+209Bi→285Mc have been systematically investigated using the phenomenological model for production cross section. We have predicted the most effective projectile-target combinations for synthesizing Mc isotopes among these reactions. Our result shows that the 3n- channel cross section is larger for the reaction 48Ca+243Am→291Mc, and the 4n- channel cross section is larger for the reaction 46K+248Cm→294Mc. This study also examines the effect of the use of mass values and shell corrections by the Möller and Warsaw groups. Using our predicted combinations and the cross section values at a range of excitation energies, we hope these isotopes of Mc can be synthesized in near-future experiments.

Fossil fuels’ supply peaks, decreases, and shortages are determined by their proven reserves, research, and consumption rates. With a large upfront cost, renewable and alternative energy sources are essential to solving the twin issues of energy and climate change. Solar absorbers are an excellent way to use renewable energy from the environment. This paper suggested an MXene-based semi-circle with a thin wire-shaped resonator (MSCWTWSR) solar absorber where the resonator layer consists of MXene material and Fe is used as substrate layer and the resonator has semi-circle and thin wire geometry which effectively absorbs the sun radiation with wideband. This proposed MSCWTWSR solar absorber works at 200–3000 (nm) wavelength and has more than 93% average absorption. The first band bandwidth of this MSCWTWSR solar absorber is 400 (nm), the second band is 530 (nm), and the third band is 470 (nm). This structure got more than 93% absorption in the AM 1.5 solar irradiation configuration. The structure gives in the Transverse electric (TE) field and Transverse magnetic (TM) field and the structure has polarization for insensitive. Furthermore, there is also investigated different incidence angles. A suggested article includes sections on testing for electric and magnetic intensities with a comparison table. The suggested solar absorber is employed in a distinct thermal heating application since MXene has a low thermal resistance and good thermal stability.

One of the most promising semiconductor materials for the development of sustainable thin-film solar cell technology is antimony selenide (Sb2Se3). Its excellent optical and electrical properties have drawn attention lately for potential application in thin-film solar cells. In this study, Sb2Se3 films deposited using the direct current (DC) magnetron sputtering technique have been subjected to a post-annealing process without an extra selenium supply at temperatures between 150 and 450 °C. Without an extra selenium supply, the impact of post-annealing temperature on the surface composition as well as the physical properties of the fabricated films was investigated. The overall evaluations revealed that the post-annealing temperature is highly efficient in altering the physical properties of the Sb2Se3 absorber thin films. We further observed that the post-annealing process improved the crystallization and the heat treatment temperature quite affected preferential orientation. The surface morphology of films exhibited structural deformation at high post-annealing temperatures (> 350 °C). According to optical and electrical characterizations, respectively, the optical energy gap and the resistivity of Sb2Se3 films reduced with an increment in the post-annealing temperature. Based on the XPS result, the variation in temperature of post-annealing led to a change in the surface composition of the films. The findings on the growth of Sb2Se3 thin films indicate the existence of an intermediate growth temperature that permits the growth of Sb2Se3 films to be optimized. The study’s conclusions can serve as a guide to the growth of Sb2Se3 thin films with the desired crystallinity, surface morphology, and composition for thin film solar cell applications.

Its excellent optical and electrical properties have drawn attention lately for potential application in thin-film solar cells. In this study, Sb2Se3 films deposited using the direct current (DC) magnetron sputtering technique have been subjected to a post-annealing process without an extra selenium supply at temperatures between 150 and 450 °C. Without an extra selenium supply, the impact of post-annealing temperature on the surface composition as well as the physical properties of the fabricated films was investigated. The overall evaluations revealed that the post-annealing temperature is highly efficient in altering the physical properties of the Sb2Se3 absorber thin films. We further observed that the post-annealing process improved the crystallization and the heat treatment temperature quite affected preferential orientation. The surface morphology of films exhibited structural deformation at high post-annealing temperatures (> 350 °C). According to optical and electrical characterizations, respectively, the optical energy gap and the resistivity of Sb2Se3 films reduced with an increment in the post-annealing temperature. Based on the XPS result, the variation in temperature of post-annealing led to a change in the surface composition of the films. The findings on the growth of Sb2Se3 thin films indicate the existence of an intermediate growth temperature that permits the growth of Sb2Se3 films to be optimized. The study’s conclusions can serve as a guide to the growth of Sb2Se3 thin films with the desired crystallinity, surface morphology, and composition for thin film solar cell applications.","PeriodicalId":20067,"journal":{"name":"Physica Scripta","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142257481","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study of magnetic structures, particularly those with curved geometries such as spherical shells, has obtained significant interest due to their potential applications in data storage, spintronics, and other advanced technologies. However, the effects of material parameters, geometric dimensions, and magnetic fields on the equilibrium and induced behaviors of skyrmions remain largely unresolved. Here, based on micromagnetic simulations, we firstly investigate the influence of spherical shell dimensions, magnetic anisotropy, exchange interaction, and Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction on the magnetic states of spherical shells. We find that curvature effects become more pronounced with increasing thickness and decreasing radius, providing evidence for the role of curvature-induced DMI-like interactions in skyrmion formation. Additionally, we observe that applying a magnetic field to the spherical shell induces behaviors similar to those in disks, including the topological transition between skyrmionium and skyrmion states, the annihilation of skyrmions, and polarity reversal. Our study aims to advance the understanding of magnetic phenomena in curved geometries and contribute to the development of novel magnetic devices.
