These mixed magnetic textures will inevitably lead to the blockage of skyrmion transport and even the distortion of data information. Therefore, the design of an efficient skyrmion filter is of great significance for the development of skyrmion-based spintronic devices. In this work, a skyrmion filter scheme is proposed, and the high-efficiency filtering function is demonstrated by micromagnetic simulations. The results show that the filtering effect of the scheme depends on the structure geometry and the spin current density that drives the skyrmion. Based on this scheme, the polarity of the filtered skyrmion can be controlled by switching the magnetization state at the output end, and the “cloning” of the skyrmion can be realized by geometric optimization of the structure. We believe that in the near future, the skyrmion filter will become one of the important components of skyrmion-based spintronic devices in the future.","PeriodicalId":504421,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Physics B","volume":" 28","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141827834","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}

This hysteresis can be induced by applying either a large DC or AC current at temperatures (T) well below the superconducting transition temperature (T\u0000 c). As T approaches T\u0000 c, similar weak hysteresis is also detected by applying a small current.

Although mixed-phase-induced strain relaxation in multiphase BFO thin films is well known, it is unclear whether a single-crystalline BFO thin film can accommodate misfit strain without the involvement of its polymorphs. Thus, understanding the strain relaxation behavior is key to elucidating the lattice strain–property relationship. In this study, a correlative strain analysis based on dark-field inline electron holography (DIH) and quantitative scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) was performed to reveal the structural mechanism for strain accommodation of a single-crystalline BFO thin film. The nanoscale DIH strain analysis results indicated a random combination of multiple strain states that acted as a primary strain relief, forming irregularly strained nanodomains. The STEM-based bond length measurement of the corresponding strained nanodomains revealed a unique strain accommodation behavior achieved by a statistical combination of multiple modes of distorted structures on the unit-cell scale. The globally integrated strain for each nanodomain was estimated to be close to -1.5%, irrespective of the nanoscale strain states, which was consistent with the fully strained BFO film on the SrTiO3 substrate. Density functional theory calculations suggested that strain accommodation by the combination of metastable phases was energetically favored in relation to single-phase-mediated relaxation. This discovery allows a comprehensive understanding of strain accommodation behavior in ferroelectric oxide films, such as BFO, with various low-symmetry polymorphs.","PeriodicalId":504421,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Physics B","volume":"24 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141649308","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}

Due to the proportional relationship between image resolution and measurement times, when the image pixels are large, the measurement times also increase, making it difficult to achieve real-time imaging. Therefore, a high-quality ghost imaging method based on undersampling natural order Hadamard is proposed. This method utilizes the characteristics of the Hadamard matrix under undersampling conditions where image information can be fully obtained but overlaps, and utilizes deep learning to extract the aliasing information from the overlapping results to obtain the true original image information. We conducted numerical simulations and experimental tests on binary and grayscale objects under undersampling conditions, demonstrating the effectiveness and scalability of this method.

We propose and verify that the generation of stacking faults (SFs) induced by the recombination of massive electron-hole pairs during irradiation is the cause of reverse leakage current degradation based on experiments results. The irradiation experiment was carried out based on Ta ions with high linear energy transfer (LET) of 90.5 MeV/(mg/cm2). It is observed that the leakage current of the diode undergoes the permanent increase during irradiation when biased at 20% of the rated reverse voltage. Micro-PL spectroscopy and PL micro-imaging were utilized to detect the presence of SFs in the irradiated SiC JBS diodes. We combined the degraded performance of irradiated samples with SFs introduced by heavy ion irradiation. Finally, 3D TCAD simulation was employed to evaluate the excessive electron-hole pairs (EHPs) concentration excited by heavy ion irradiation. It was observed that the excessive hole concentration under irradiation exceeded significantly the threshold hole concentration necessary for the expansion of SFs in the substrate. The proposed mechanism suggests that the process and material characteristics of the silicon carbide should be considered in order to reinforcing against the single event effect of SiC power devices.","PeriodicalId":504421,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Physics B","volume":"36 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141653974","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}
