In nanophotonics, resonances often result from the interaction of several optical elements. Controlling these resonances is an excellent opportunity to provide light with properties on demand for applications ranging from sensing to quantum technologies. The inverse design of large, distributed resonators, however, is typically challenged by high computational costs when discretizing the entire system in space. Here, this limitation is overcome by harnessing prior knowledge about the individual scatterers that form the resonator and their interaction. In particular, a transition matrix multi‐scattering framework is coupled with the state‐of‐the‐art adaptive Antoulas–Anderson (AAA) algorithm to identify complex poles of the optical response function. A sample refinement strategy suitable for accurately locating a large number of poles is introduced. The AAA algorithm is tied into an automatic differentiation framework to efficiently differentiate multi‐scattering resonance calculations. The resulting resonance solver allows for efficient gradient‐based optimization, demonstrated here by the inverse design of an integrated exciton‐polariton cavity. This contribution serves as an important step towards efficient resonance calculations in a variety of multi‐scattering scenarios, such as inclusions in stratified media, periodic lattices, and scatterers with arbitrary shapes.","PeriodicalId":7219,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Theory and Simulations","volume":"47 45 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142597479","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It streamlines the realization of ANN models characterized by diverse complexities and layer structures. The proposed method is demonstrated by developing nonlinear models for GaN HEMT on two distinct substrates. GaN‐on‐Si and GaN‐on‐SiC with respective and gate widths are characterized by S‐parameters at a grid of gate and drain bias conditions. The intrinsic gate capacitance and conductances are extracted from the de‐embedded S‐parameters, which are then integrated to find the gate charges and currents. The drain current with the inherent self‐heating and trapping effects is modeled based on the pulsed IV measurement at well‐defined quiescent voltages. Subsequently, the related ANN models of these nonlinear elements are interconnected to form the intrinsic part of the large‐signal model. This intrinsic part with all ANN sub‐models is then completely implemented using a Verilog‐A‐based code. The whole ANN large‐signal model is then validated by single‐ and two‐tone radio frequency large‐signal measurements, which shows a perfect fitting with a high convergence rate. The overall simulation time is five times reduced when the developed Verilog‐A‐based ANN is used instead of the table‐based model. Overall, the large‐signal Verilog‐A‐based ANN model exhibits an improved performance enhancement compared to the conventional table‐based models. This indicates the practical viability of the Verilog‐A integration technique in modeling the nonlinear GaN HEMTs.","PeriodicalId":7219,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Theory and Simulations","volume":"22 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142597480","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These calculations reveal that all these materials possess a cubic lattice structure and are both dynamically and mechanically stable. Interestingly, they all exhibit indirect bandgaps, except displays a metallic character. The bandgap values for these compounds fall within the range of 3.63 to 5.14 eV. Additionally, the results of the BSE indicate that they exhibit exceptional absorption capabilities across the near‐UV to mid‐UV light region. Furthermore, studies on transport and excitonic properties suggest that they exhibit lower effective electron masses compared to holes, with exciton binding energies spanning between 0.16 and 0.98 eV. A significant observation is the prevalent hole‐phonon coupling compared to electron‐phonon coupling in these compounds.

However, the translation of most reported metamaterials into a clinical accessory is still limited and challenging due to their low sensitivity, sub‐optimal performance, and bulky footprints for integration inside MRI scanners. Herein, a metamaterial‐inspired structure is developed using coupled octa‐spiral resonators to boost magnetic field localization inside the scanned region. In addition, the high‐Q resonance of the metamaterial‐inspired structure improves impedance matching and enhances the transmit/receive efficiency of MRI coils. Theoretical analysis of electromagnetic responses and full‐wave simulations show a homogeneous boost in SNR by over times throughout a human‐properties mimicking phantom using the resonator with a maximum SNR enhancement factor (EF) of . The spatial distribution of SNR EF inside the phantom is also validated by preliminary laboratory experiments.

The proposed model is applied to Algeria by estimating its parameters using recent health data (from 2000). The results revealed that the disease-free equilibrium is stable only when the basic reproduction number is less than one, indicating that controlling the spread of malaria and possibly eradicating it can be achieved by implementing appropriate preventive measures. Simulations also demonstrated a direct correlation between the rate of infection transmission and an increase in the number of infected individuals, highlighting the need for swift action when signs of an outbreak emerge. Based on these findings, a set of preventive measures is recommended, including insecticide spraying programs, widespread distribution of insecticide-treated bed nets, and implementation of effective treatment protocols for infected individuals. This study also emphasizes the importance of continuous monitoring of health data and updating model parameters to ensure the effectiveness and sustainability of preventive measures.","PeriodicalId":7219,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Theory and Simulations","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142589063","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
