چکیده

Mechanical deformations in $\ensuremath{\alpha}\ensuremath{-}{\mathcal{T}}_{3}$ lattices induce local pseudomagnetic fields of opposite directionality for different valleys. When this strain is equipped with a dynamical drive, it generates complementary valley-asymmetric pseudoelectric field, which expected to accelerate electrons. We propose that by combining these effects time-dependent nonuniform strain, tunable valley filtering devices can be engineered extend beyond the static capabilities. demonstrate implementing an oscillating Gaussian bump centered four-terminal Hall bar setup and calculating induced pseudoelectromagnetic analytically. Within recursive Floquet Green-function scheme, we determine time-averaged transmission polarization, as well spatial distributions density states current density. As result periodic detect novel energy regimes highly valley-polarized transmission, depending on $\ensuremath{\alpha}$. Analyzing profiles relate setup. By means driving frequency, manipulate states, might advantageous future device applications.

Spin-valley filtering in strained graphene structures with artificially induced carrier mass and spin-orbit coupling.

The interplay of massive electrons with spin-orbit coupling in bulk graphene results in a spin-valley dependent gap. Thus, a barrier with such properties can act as a filter, transmitting only opposite spins from opposite valleys. In this Letter we show that a strain induced pseudomagnetic field in such a barrier will enforce opposite cyclotron trajectories for the filtered valleys, leading to ...

Landau Levels in Strained Optical Lattices.

We propose a hexagonal optical lattice system with spatial variations in the hopping matrix elements. Just like in the valley Hall effect in strained graphene, for atoms near the Dirac points the variations in the hopping matrix elements can be described by a pseudomagnetic field and result in the formation of Landau levels. We show that the pseudomagnetic field leads to measurable experimental...

A Dynamically Tunable Memory Hierarchy

The widespread use of repeaters in long wires creates the possibility of dynamically sizing regular on-chip structures. We present a tunable cache and translation lookaside buffer (TLB) hierarchy that leverages repeater insertion to dynamically trade off size for speed and power consumption on a per-application phase basis using a novel configuration management algorithm. In comparison to a con...

Dual-band, Dynamically Tunable Plasmonic Metamaterial Absorbers Based on Graphene for Terahertz Frequencies

In this paper, a compact plasmonic metamaterial absorber for terahertz frequencies is proposed and simulated. The absorber is based on metamaterial graphene structures, and benefits from dynamically controllable properties of graphene. Through patterning graphene layers, plasmonic resonances are tailored to provide a dual band as well as an improved bandwidth absorption. Unit cell of the design...
