In Josephson parametric converters, the strong localized nonlinearity of the Josephson junction limits the amplification and squeezing, as well as the dynamic range, in current devices. In contrast, a weak distributed nonlinearity can provide higher gain and dynamic range, when implemented as a kinetic inductance (KI) nanowire of a dirty superconductor, and has additional benefits such as resilience to magnetic field, higher-temperature operation, and simplified fabrication. Here, we propose, demonstrate, and analyze the performance of a KI parametric converter that relies on the weak distributed nonlinearity of a Nb-Ti-N KI nanowire. The device utilizes three-wave mixing induced by a dc current bias. We demonstrate its operation as a nondegenerate parametric amplifier with high phase-sensitive gain, reaching two-mode amplification and deamplification of approximately 30 dB for two resonances separated by 0.8 GHz, in excellent agreement with our theory of the device. We observe a dynamic range of <math display=\"inline\" overflow=\"scroll\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\"><mo>−</mo><mn>108</mn></math> dBm at 30 dB gain.

Performing signal-processing operations at low temperatures could be a solution. Nanocryotrons, superconducting nanowire three-terminal devices, are good candidates for integrating sensing and electronics on the same technological platform as SNSPDs in photon-counting applications. In this work, we demonstrate that it is possible to read out, process, encode, and store the output of SNSPDs using exclusively superconducting nanowires patterned on niobium nitride thin films. In particular, we present the design and development of a nanocryotron ripple counter that detects input voltage spikes and converts the number of pulses to an <math display=\"inline\" overflow=\"scroll\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\"><mi>N</mi></math>-digit value. The counting base can be tuned from 2 to higher values, enabling higher maximum counts without enlarging the circuit. As a proof of principle, we first experimentally demonstrate the building block of the counter, an integer-<math display=\"inline\" overflow=\"scroll\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\"><mi>N</mi></math> frequency divider with <math display=\"inline\" overflow=\"scroll\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\"><mi>N</mi></math> ranging from 2 to 5. Then, we demonstrate photon-counting operations at 405 nm and 1550 nm by coupling an SNSPD with a two-digit nanocryotron counter partially integrated on chip.

The main reason for this dismal prognosis is the thick stroma which both protects tumor cells from drug penetration and supports tumor development. Ultrasound inertial cavitation is a promising treatment with potential for stromal disruption, enhancing tumor cells’ sensitivity to chemical agents and biomodulators. Our goal was to develop a dedicated microelastography setup allowing us to measure the elasticity of <i>in vitro</i> tumor models called spheroids. In a second step, the impact of cavitation treatment on their mechanical properties was assessed. A transcranial magnetic stimulation clinical device was used to induce shear waves in the spheroids containing magnetic nanoparticles. Using an inverted optical microscope, particle imaging velocimetry, and noise correlation algorithms, the shear wave velocity, indicative of the medium’s elasticity, could be measured. Shear waves generated by the magnetic pulse inside the spheroids were detected and their velocity was measured using noise correlation elastography. This allowed the estimation of the spheroids’ elasticity. Cavitation treatment softened them significantly, and the impact of the exposure conditions and the spheroids’ composition have been studied. In the future, such a method could be used to monitor cavitation treatments. In addition, since it is now well established that mechanical constraints and elasticity play an important role in tumor growth, it is of great interest to measure the elasticity of tumor models to better understand the mechanisms of tumor growth.","PeriodicalId":20109,"journal":{"name":"Physical Review Applied","volume":"74 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141949312","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"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}

This mechanism has previously been harnessed for unconventional quantum spin control, spin decoherence protection, and quantum sensing. Bulk-mode acoustic wave devices are also important in the microelectronics industry as microwave filters. A key challenge in both applications is a lack of appropriate operando microscopy tools for quantifying and visualizing gigahertz-frequency dynamic strain. In this work, we directly image acoustic strain within N-<i>V</i> center-coupled diamond thin-film bulk acoustic wave resonators using stroboscopic scanning hard x-ray diffraction microscopy at the Advanced Photon Source. The far-field scattering patterns of the nanofocused x-ray diffraction encode strain information entirely through the illuminated thickness of the resonator. These patterns have a real-space spatial variation that is consistent with the bulk strain’s expected modal distribution and a momentum-space angular variation from which the strain amplitude can be quantitatively deduced. We also perform optical measurements of strain-driven Rabi precession of of the N-<i>V</i> center spin ensemble, providing an additional quantitative measurement of the strain amplitude. As a result, we directly measure one of the six N-<i>V</i> spin-stress coupling parameters, <math display=\"inline\" overflow=\"scroll\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\"><mi>b</mi><mo>=</mo><mn>2.73</mn><mo stretchy=\"false\">(</mo><mn>2</mn><mo stretchy=\"false\">)</mo></math> MHz/GPa, by correlating these measurements at the same spatial position and applied microwave power.

Definitive targets for the further improvement of devices are deduced: fullerenes deliver fast electron extraction, but suffer from a large rate constant for cross-interface recombination or hole extraction. Conversely, Spiro-OMeTAD exhibits slow hole extraction but does not increase the perovskite’s surface recombination rate, likely contributing to its success in solar cell devices.","PeriodicalId":20109,"journal":{"name":"Physical Review Applied","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-08-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141949375","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"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}
