Simulations of Phase Slippage in an Aperture Array
نویسندگان
چکیده
To understand the origins of synchronous and asynchronous phase slippages observed in an array of apertures connecting two reservoirs of superfluid 4He, we have investigated the role of thermal fluctuations in the critical velocity and the possible effects of having an array rather than a single aperture through several model simulations. The results are compared with recent experiments carried out near the superfluid transition temperature with an array of apertures as well as those carried out at low temperatures with a single aperture.

Transition from synchronous to asynchronous superfluid phase slippage in an aperture array
We have investigated the dynamics of superfluid phase slippage in an array of apertures. The magnitude of the dissipative phase slips shows that they occur simultaneously in all the apertures when the temperature is near T!−T#10 mK and subsequently lose their simultaneity as the temperature is lowered. We describe three experiments to probe the mechanisms underlying the synchronous behavior. Th...
متن کاملNovel Element For Bnadwidth Improvement Of The Reflectarray Antenna
In this paper novel reflectarray antenna elements are proposed using aperture-coupled dielectric resonator antenna structures. Using these new structures, wide phase range and wide frequency bandwidth (up to 28.5%) with parallel and linear phase curves are obtained. In each case, an array consisting of 289 elements was simulated using the finite integration technique (FIT). The arrays exhibit 3...
متن کاملPhase Only Synthesis of Antenna Patterns Using Iterative Restoration Methods
In this work, the method of iterative Fourier transform phase reconstruction, conventionally used in holography and optical image reconstruction, is applied to phase only synthesis of antenna patterns. The method is applied to two types of pattern synthesis problems: "main lobe beam shaping" and "side-lobe-level reduction". The proposed method is most useful in the efficient employment of attai...
متن کاملFabricating nanoscale aperture arrays for superfluid helium-4 weak link experiments
Arrays of nanoscale apertures have been found to exhibit fascinating quantum phenomena such as the Josephson effect and collective quantized phase-slippage. To be in the Josephson regime, the aperture size must be comparable to the healing length of the He order parameter. For 50nm apertures this regime is attained ∼mK below Tλ. Collective phase slippage occurs at considerably lower temperature...
