Periodic Behavior and Vortex Patterns in Non-circular Quantum Dots
نویسندگان
چکیده
We use the spin-density-functional theory to study the effects of an external magnetic field on two-dimensional quantum dots with a non-circular hard-wall confining potential [1]. The increasing magnetic field leads to spin-polarization and formation of a highly inhomogeneous maximum-density droplet (MDD). The onset of the MDD can be predicted from the number of flux quanta which only depends on the area of the dot and is thus independent of the geometry.

Thermal Field Around a Circular Cylinder with Periodic Vortex Shedding
A numerical study is carried out to investigate the laminar forced convection heat transfer from a circular cylinder. The fluid is assumed to be incompressible, the Reynolds number ranged from 0.1 to 1000, and the Prandtl number was equal to 0.7. The range of study includes heat transfer in creeping flow (Re40). The equations were discretized by a control-volume-based finite difference techniqu...
متن کاملInvestigation of vortex-induced vibration phenomenon in verticallong circular slender structure with non-uniform flows
Analyzing the vortex-induced vibration of a slender marine structure withlength to diameter ratio up to 200 is the objective of this study. This slender is free to move in both in-line and cross flow directions and immersed completely in water. Three different types of shear currents pass on it and cause to vibrate slender in different forms. Nowadays, these vibrations are very important for de...

In this article, the temperature behavior of output power of superluminescent light-emitting diode (SLED) by considering the effect of non-radiative recombination coefficient, non-radiative spontaneous emission coefficient and Auger recombination coefficients has been investigated. For this aim, GaN pyramidal quantum dots were used as the active region. The numerical method has been used to sol...
متن کاملPeriodic vortex pinning with magnetic and nonmagnetic dots: The influence of size
Periodic pinning arrays can give rise to commensurability effects for the vortex pinning in superconductors. We studied the influence of size and separation of the individual pinning centers made out of magnetic and nonmagnetic dots. While there is some dependence on the dot size, the periodic pinning changes its character drastically, as soon as the separation between dots becomes comparable t...
متن کاملFlux pinning by regular nanostructures in Nb thin films: Magnetic vs. structural effects
– Periodic pinning effects in indented Nb films and Nb films with rectangular arrays of submicrometric Ni dots were studied. The indented samples consisted of Nb film deposited on top of Si substrates patterned with rectangular arrays of nanoholes. Pinning effects can be observed in the evolution of resistivity and critical current with the applied magnetic field, showing the same qualitative b...
