There existed several such methods but theyare either insecure or face with information leakage problem. Recently, Ye textit{et al.} [Quantum Inf.

However, thismethod is not so feasible as it has specific limitations, namely, itrequires availability of quantum memory and high classical communicationcost. We propose in this paper a new method to overcome the above-saidlimitations. Our method is also efficient because we also use single photonsin two degrees of freedom. However, the encoding operation in our method ismodified so that no quantum memory is demanded at all and the execution ofour method is simpler compared to the method of Ye textit{et al.}.Moreover, the cost of classical communication in our method is 50% cheaperthan that in the method of Ye textit{et al.} Therefore, our method provesto be feasible, simple and economical that could be realized by means ofcurrent technologies.","PeriodicalId":10571,"journal":{"name":"Communications in Physics","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86767524","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The energy parameter in the Gō-like model is obtained individually for each protein by matching the model’s melting temperature to the experimental meltingtemperature in the absence of crowders. It is shown that both the melting temperature and the folding stability of protein increase in the presence of the crowders. Specifically, as the crowders’ volume fraction φc increases from 0 to 0.4 the melting temperature increases by more than 20 Kelvins, whereas the folding stability is enhanced by up to ∼3.6 kcal/mol depending on the protein and the temperature. At room temperature (300 K), the stability enhancement is 1.2–1.4 kcal/mol, which is close to prior experimental data. It is also shown that the dependence of the folding free energy change on φc can be fitted well to the scaled particle theory by assuming a linear dependence of the effective size of the unfolded state on φc .","PeriodicalId":10571,"journal":{"name":"Communications in Physics","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85241617","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The wedge-shaped interface shows an excellent capacity in the tight lightwave confinement at deep-subwavelength propagation mode size. Several types of metals have also been investigated for guiding plasmon waves. Among them, the Ag metal shows a plasmon wave guiding ability superior to other metals, however, it is sensitive to the operating medium and is easily oxidized. To overcome these drawbacks, the Ag wedge covered by a protective thin oxide layer is proposed. Numerically investigated results show that the propagation length of the Ag wedge covered by a protective thin silicon dioxide layer can be enhanced by a factor of 7.5 while its figure of merit is at least 1.7 times larger than that of the Au wedge waveguide. The advantage of the proposed interface is potential for developing plasmonic waveguide components.","PeriodicalId":10571,"journal":{"name":"Communications in Physics","volume":"137 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77222267","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The device was designed with interdigitated electrode configuration and then manufactured by combining lithography and chemical vapor deposition techniques in clean room. Graphene oxide material (prepared by Hummer method) was chemically reduced using a strong reducing agent hydrazine, and then drop-casted onto the channel region. The results have demonstrated a successful reduction of graphene oxide with clearly shifting of 02 characteristic peaks comparing with graphene oxide. Consequently, the transfer curve of as-prepared reduced graphene oxide based transistor exhibits ambipolar characteristics with a V-shape. Acetylcholinesterase was immobilized on top of reduced graphene oxide film with the aid of glutaraldehyde trapping agent. It was found that the release of proton from enzymatic hydrolysis of acetylthiocholine has caused significant variation in charge concentration and mobility in the channel, thus generated a significant blue shift in position of Dirac point on ambipolar curve.

The reflection spectra and the electric field distributions of MIM-SPR structures can be tuned by modifying the geometrical properties and have been numerically investigated by using Lumerical’s finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) solutions. The square lattice configuration of 1200 nm to 1400 nm pitch of gold micro-disks of thickness from 80 nm to 120 nm have been conducted. The size of these considered gold patterns, i.e., the diameter of the micro-disks is in the range of 900 nm to 1000 nm.

Doping graphene with other elements is an effective way to modify its CO2 storage ability. The literature has shown that the N and B doping could change the adsorption strength of CO2 on the graphene substrate. However, there is no research available to elucidate the adsorption sites and the physical properties underlying the interaction of CO2 with the N and B doped systems. Therefore, this paper is devoted to clarifying the current topic using the self-consistent van der Waals density functional theory calculations. The results showed that the N and B doping increases and decreases the adsorption energy of CO2, respectively. The reason is that there are more peaks of the electronic density of states of CO2 participating in the interaction with the N p orbital than with the B p orbital.","PeriodicalId":10571,"journal":{"name":"Communications in Physics","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88724870","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The SERS effect is available mainly due to the SERS substrate - a noble metal surface that is rough at the nano level or a set of noble metal nanoparticles in a certain arrangement. Such a SERS substrate acts as an analyte Raman signal amplifier and can provide amplification up to millions of times and even more. The amplification coefficient of the SERS substrate is determined mainly by the number of ‘hot spots’ it contains as well as the ‘hotness’ of these spots. In turn, a ‘hot spot’ is a certain space around the tips or a nanogap between particles, where the local electromagnetic field is intensely enhanced, while the ‘hotness’ is determined by the sharpness of the tips (the sharper the hotter) and tightness of the gaps (the narrower the hotter). This report presents an overview of the research results of fabricating a type of SERS substrate with a high enhancement factor, which is the SERS substrate made from silver nanostructures coated on the silicon surface. With the aim of increasing the number of ‘hot spots’ and their quality, as well as ensuring uniformity and reproducibility of the SERS substrate, silver nanostructures have been fabricated in various forms, such as nanoparticles, nanodendrites and nanoflowers.

Crystallizing in fluorite structure, SrF(_{2}) is a magnetism-free indirect gap insulator with band gap of 11.61 eV as determined by the reliable mBJK functional. Mn substitution induces the magnetic insulator behavior as both spin configurations exhibit large band gaps with a strong spin-polarization. Specifically, spin-up energy gaps of 8.554, 7.605, 6.902, and 6.154 eV are obtained for Sr(_{0.75})Mn(_{0.25})F(_{2}), Sr(_{0.5})Mn(_{0.5})F(_{2}), Sr(_{0.25})Mn(_{0.75})F(_{2}), and MnF(_{2}), respectively. Whereas, the spin-down state shows larger values of 8.569, 8.864, 9.307, and 9.837 eV, respectively. Consequently, significant magnetization is induced and an integer total spin magnetic moment of 5 (mu_{B}) is obtained, being produced mainly by the spin-up Mn-3d state. Finally, the formation enthalpy and cohesive energy are determined, which indicate good thermodynamic and structural stability of the studied materials. Results suggest that Mn substitution at the Sr-sites of SrF(_{2}) compound may be an efficient approach to create new magnetic materials to be used in the spintronic devices.","PeriodicalId":10571,"journal":{"name":"Communications in Physics","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88594193","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
