Structure and Electron Transport at Metal Atomic Junctions Doped with Dichloroethylene

We have investigated the structure and electron transport at dichloroethylene-doped metal atomic junctions at low temperatures (20 K) in ultra-high vacuum, using Fe, Ni, Pd, Cu, Ag, and Au. The metal atomic junctions were fabricated using the mechanically controllable break junction technique. After introducing the dichloroethylene (DCE), the conductance behavior of Fe, Ni, and Pd junctions was considerably changed, whereas little change was observed for Cu, Ag, and Au. For the Pd and Cu junctions, a clear peak was observed in their conductance histograms, showing that the single-molecule junction was selectively formed. To investigate the structure of the metal atomic junctions further, their plateau lengths were analyzed. The length analysis revealed that the Au atomic wire was elongated, and the metal atomic wires were formed for the other transition metals: those that do not normally form metal atomic wires without DCE doping, as DCE adsorption stabilized the metal atomic states. There is a strong interaction between DCE and the metals, where DCE supports the formation of the metal atomic wire for Fe, Ni, and Pd.     

Heat-pulse rectification in graphene Y junctions: A molecular dynamics simulations

By using molecular-dynamics simulations, we demonstrate the existence of heat-pulse rectification in graphene Y junctions. Our results show that the heat pulse will separate into two parts when it flows from stem to branches. However, when it flows from branches to stem, substantial part of the heat pulse is reflected back into the branches with no separation. Moreover, we discuss rectification in different type of junctions and find that the preferred heat pulse transport direction depends on the structure of the junctions, which enable us to delicately control the heat rectification in graphene based structures.     

A Novel Approach to Monitoring of the Diffusion Junction Potential in Speciation Studies by Polarography Under very Acidic Conditions. Part I: The Reversible Cd(II)‐Picolinic Acid System

A new polarographic procedure has been developed for the study of metal‐ligand equilibria at pH<2 by applying an in situ monitoring of the diffusion junction potential by introducing a noncomplexing witness metal ion, Tl(I). As a case study, this procedure was applied to the Cd(II)‐picolinic acid (pyridine‐2‐carboxylic acid) system; DC_TAST polarography was employed at 25 °C and ionic strength of 0.25–0.5 M (H,Na)NO₃. Log β values of 4.26±0.03, 7.86±0.11 and 10.47±0.12 were obtained for the ML, ML₂ and ML₃ complexes, respectively, and compare well to literature values. The first log β (6.27±0.07) value for the MLH species was successfully determined, for which a crystal structure has been reported recently.     

Generation of macroscopic entangled coherent states with large Josephson junctions

We propose a simple and experimental architecture to generate macroscopic entanglement in a solid system which consists of two large Josephson junctions and a flux qubit. Through quantum measuring of flux qubit, entangled coherent states of two large Josephson junctions are obtained. The concurrence of entangled coherent states can be accommodated by adjusted systematic parameters. We also give a brief discussion on the experimental feasibility of this proposal.     

Macroscopic quantum tunneling in differently loaded Josephson junctions

In relation to the problem of quantum measurement, macroscopic quantum tunneling (MQT) in Josephson junctions is one of the most investigated topics. Although many theoretical studies have been devoted to this argument, the agreement on a single theoretical model has not yet been reached. The purpose of the present work is to analyze the load “seen” by the junction, in order to evaluate the contribution of the dissipation that modifies the decay-rate of the metastable state of the junction. The present work reports some theoretical results in relation to different kinds of loading systems, namely, the cases of capacitive, inductive and purely resistive load. The resistive load is considered also in relation to an experimental test.

Stadium型介观器件腔中粒子逃逸率的研究

本文研究了粒子在二维弱开口的Bunimovich Stadium型介观混沌器件中的逃逸规律.利用经典统计的方法,通过改变器件端口宽度、圆弧半径及器件腔长等参数,首次发现随器件各项参数变化的分形维数与粒子逃逸率趋势符合,并揭示了混沌体系的逃逸指数受器件形状的影响.统计并拟合了粒子逃逸率与粒子波数大小的关系,数值结果表明,粒子逃逸率与波数为二次函数关系,但逃逸率与能量大小不是严格的线性关系.进一步分析了在器件入口处粒子的衍射效应对粒子逃逸的影响,结果表明,衍射效应使粒子逃逸率增加,且粒子数的演化在时间较短时不再满足指数关系,长时间的演化再次满足指数衰减规律.
