We experimentally investigated terahertz photomixing operation at room temperature in an InGaP/InGaAs/ GaAs two-dimensional plasmon-resonant photomixer incorporating grating-bicoupled dual-gate structure. Photoelectrons drifting into a high-density plasmon cavity grating from an adjacent low-density one extensively excite the plasmon resonance, resulting in emission of terahertz radiation. A ve...

We consider simple mathematical models for the early population dynamics of the human immunodefficiency type 1 virus (HIV-1). Although these systems of differential equations may be solved by numerical methods, few general theoretical results are available due to nonlinearities. We analyze a model whose components are plasma densities of uninfected CD4+ T-cells and infected cells (assumed in th...

This paper presents a laser model for describing the effects of nonequilibrium carrier distributions. The approach is based on the coupled Maxwell-semiconductor-Bloch equations, with carrier–carrier and carrier–phonon collisions treated in the relaxation rate approximation. Using examples involving relaxation oscillation, current modulation, and optical injection, we demonstrate how the model c...

We investigate the effects of amplitude modulation (AM) discharge method on growth nanoparticles and relation between plasma generation in tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS)/O2/Ar plasma. The laser-light scattering (LLS) intensity, which is proportional to density sixth power size Rayleigh regime, decreases by 18% at an AM level 10% 60% 50%. On other hand, ArI emission roughly density, higher than ...

We report room temperature demonstration of slow light propagation via coherent population oscillation (CPO) in a GaAs quantum well waveguide. Measurements of the group delay of an amplitude modulated signal resonant with the heavy-hole exciton transition reveal delays as long as 830 ps. The measured bandwidth, which approaches 100 MHz, is related to the lifetime of the photoexcited electron-ho...

An interpretation of high-frequency (20–2400 Hz) fast quasiperiodic oscillations of magnetars in terms of an equivalent electric circuit is given. Observed periods and the very high quality of quasi-periodic oscillations are explained. The oscillation source is represented as a hot electron-positron plasma in a ‘trapped fireball’, a system of current-carrying magnetic loops of various sizes. Th...

We propose a new model for quasi-periodic modulation of solar and stellar flaring emission. Fast magnetoacoustic oscillations of a non-flaring loop can interact with a nearby flaring active region. This interaction occurs when part of the oscillation situated outside the loop reaches the regions of steep gradients in magnetic field within an active region and produces periodic variations of ele...

Chaos has revolutionized the field of nonlinear science and stimulated foundational studies from neural networks, extreme event statistics, to physics of electron transport. Recent studies in cavity optomechanics provide a new platform to uncover quintessential architectures of chaos generation and the underlying physics. Here, we report the generation of dynamical chaos in silicon-based monoli...

Frequency splitting coefficients from Global Oscillation Network Group (GONG) and Michelson Doppler Imager (MDI) observations covering the period 1995–2001 are used to study temporal variations in the solar rotation rate at high latitudes. The torsional oscillation pattern in the Sun is known to penetrate to a depth of about 0.1R⊙ with alternate bands of faster and slower rotating plasma. At lo...

We report the first spectroscopic detection of a kink MHD oscillation of a solar coronal structure by the Extreme-Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrometer (EIS) on the Japanese Hinode satellite. The detected oscillation has an amplitude of 1 km s−1 in the Doppler shift of the FeXII 195 Å spectral line (1.3 MK), and a period of 296 s. The unique combination of EIS’s spectroscopic and imaging abilities e...
