Influence of layer-to-layer electric and magnetic interactions on a magnetoelectric coefficient at high frequencies

We analyze the influence of electric and magnetic interconnection between the components of a magnetoelectric on its magnetoelectric coefficient at high frequency of the external electric and magnetic field. We interpret the obtained results on the basis of the existence in such structures of probing electromagnetic fields. It is shown that allowing for electric and magnetic field capture through the mechanical subsystem leads to a decrease in the magnetoelectric coefficient.     

Thermally tunable narrow-bandpass filter based on a linearly chirped fiber Bragg grating

We propose a new method for the development of a tunable optical bandpass filter (TOBF) based on a linearly chirped fiber Bragg grating (LCFBG). A NiCr wire heater is used to heat the LCFBG at a small point to introduce a narrow passband within the stop band of the LCFBG. The central wavelength of the passband is tuned by scanning the wire heater along the LCFBG. As an example demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed method, we demonstrate a TOBF with a very small 3-dB bandwidth of approximately 7 pm, a tuning range of 16.4 nm, and a rejection ratio of more than 25 dB. Compared with previously reported tunable-fiber-based bandpass filters, this method provides the advantages of a large tuning range, continuous tunability, a switchable passband, a simple tuning mechanism, low cost, and narrow bandwidth.

Cascaded fiber Sagnac loop-based microwave photonic multiband bandpass filter with a selectable passband frequency

A passband frequency-electable microwave photonic multiband bandpass filter based on a cascaded fiber Sagnac loop is presented and experimentally demonstrated.A broadband light is sliced by the cascaded fiber Sagnac loop,which serves as a spectrum slicer.After broadband light passes through the spectrum slicer,the sliced broadband light will have the varied periodical spectral characteristics that will cause a transmitted spectral distribution with uniform or multiple periods,then will be modulated by an optical phase modulator and delayed by a dispersive medium.Therefore,a frequency-band-selectable microwave photonic multiband bandpass filter with a suppressed baseband is achieved that can be switched between the single-passband,dual-passband,and triple-passband state.The presented filter exhibits a maximal out-of-band rejection ratio of about 30 d B.     

Impurity effects in graphene

Polarization-independent and omnidirectional tunable bandpass filters have been proposed and demonstrated. It is seen that a bilayer period structure composed of single-negative materials can act as a tunable filter, which can be changed from a filter with two symmetrical passband to one with a single pass bandpass, or from one with a wide to one with a narrow pass band. Moreover, the proposed filter is insensitive to the incident angle and polarization of light, which is an omnidirectional, polarization-independent filter for incidence angles between 0° to 90°.     

Tunable double-channel filter based on defect mode splitting of one-dimensional magnetic photonic crystal

Based on a one-dimensional magnetic photonic crystal made of magneto-optic material, a tunable double-channel filter is presented. The tunability of such a filter can be achieved by defect mode splitting in the presence of external magnetic fields. Using the 4×4 transfer matrix method, the influences of the structural and compositional parameters are also analyzed, such as the magneto-optical effect, number of layers and angle of incidence.     

Electrically tunable quantum anomalous Hall effect in graphene decorated by 5d transition-metal adatoms

Based on first-principles calculations, we predict that 5d transition metals on graphene present a unique class of hybrid systems exhibiting topological transport effects that can be manipulated effectively by external electric fields. The origin of this phenomenon lies in the exceptional magnetic properties and the large spin-orbit interaction of the 5d metals leading to significant magnetic moments accompanied with colossal magnetocrystalline anisotropy energies. A strong magnetoelectric response is predicted that offers the possibility to switch the spontaneous magnetization direction by moderate electric fields, enabling an electrically tunable quantum anomalous Hall effect.     

Large tunable FMR frequency shift by magnetoelectric coupling in oblique-sputtered Fe_(52.5)Co_(22.5)B_(25.0)/PZN-PT multiferroic heterostructure

In this study, we observe a strong inverse magnetoelectric coupling in Fe_(52.5)Co_(22.5)B_(25.0)/PZN-PT multiferroic heterostructure, which produces large electric field(E-field) tunability of microwave magnetic properties. With the increase of the E-field from 0 to 8 kV/cm, the magnetic anisotropy field Heffis dramatically enhanced from 169 to 600 Oe, which further leads to a significant enhancement of ferromagnetic resonance frequency from 4.57 to 8.73 GHz under zero bias magnetic field, and a simultaneous decrease of the damping constant α from 0.021 to 0.0186. These features demonstrate that this multiferroic composite is a promising candidate for fabricating E-field tunable microwave components.     

Influence of external electric and magnetic fields on magnetoelectric interaction in ferromagnets

A gap in the spectrum of spin and ferroelectric waves is investigated versus magnetic and electric fields. It is demonstrated that the magnetoelectric interaction is amplified with increasing external magnetic field and is weakened with increasing external electric field. This allows the interaction between the spin and ferroelectric subsystems to be controlled by external fields.

Solid solutions of bismuth-based Aurivillius oxides: structural and dielectric characterization

Bismuth layered perovskite structures show interesting physical properties varying as a function of external parameters (temperature, frequency, electric and magnetic fields). When a magnetic ion is incorporated in some of these materials, some of the structures show simultaneous ferroelectricity and ferro/antiferromagnetism. Thus, they exhibit magnetoelectric properties under the influence of an external magnetic field. This paper compares the structural (XRD and SEM) and electrical properties of two eight-layered Aurivillius oxides.     

Dynamically tunable terahertz passband filter based on metamaterials integrated with a graphene middle layer

The dynamic tunability of a terahertz(THz) passband filter was realized by changing the Fermi energy(E_F) of graphene based on the sandwiched structure of metal-graphene-metal metamaterials(MGMs). By using plane wave simulation, we demonstrated that the central frequency( f_0) of the proposed filter can shift from 5.04 THz to 5.71 THz; this shift is accompanied by a 3 dB bandwidth(? f) decrease from 1.82 THz to 0.01 THz as the EFincreases from 0 to 0.75 eV.Additionally, in order to select a suitable control equation for the proposed filter, the curves of ? f and f_0 under different graphene EFwere fitted using five different mathematical models. The fitting results demonstrate that the Dose Resp model offers accurate predictions of the change in the 3 dB bandwidth, and the Quartic model can successfully describe the variation in the center frequency of the proposed filter. Moreover, the electric field and current density analyses show that the dynamic tuning property of the proposed filter is mainly caused by the competition of two coupling effects at different graphene EF, i.e., graphene-polyimide coupling and graphene-metal coupling. This study shows that the proposed structures are promising for realizing dynamically tunable filters in innovative THz communication systems.     

Dynamic magnetoelectric effect in terbium molybdate

The electric polarization induced in ferroelectric terbium molybdate by a magnetic field linearly varying with time is measured. The measurements are performed in fields up to 19 T at different specified rates of change in the magnetic field at temperatures of 273 and 219 K. The results obtained indicate that there are magnetoelectric effects of two types. One of them is a conventional magnetoelectric effect, which is appropriately referred to as the static magnetoelectric effect. The other effect is characterized by the fact that the electric polarization increases with an increase in the rate of change in the magnetic field and relaxes with time to zero at a fixed nonzero field. This phenomenon is termed the dynamic magnetoelectric effect.
