We present nonlinear optical four-wave mixing in a silicon nanodisk dimer metasurface. Under the oblique incident plane waves, designed metasurface exhibits multiresonant feature with simultaneous excitations of three quasi-bound states continuum (BIC). Through employing these quasi-BICs maximizing electric field energy at input bump wavelengths, significant enhancement third-order processes in...

Visible matter is characterised by a single mass scale; namely, the proton mass. The proton’s existence and structure are supposed to be described quantum chromodynamics (QCD); yet, absent Higgs boson couplings, scale-invariant. Thus, if Standard Model truly part of theory Nature, then an emergent feature QCD; hadron (EHM) must provide basic link between observation. Nonperturbative tools neces...

As part of an initiative to reduce the size, weight, and complexity of radio astronomy receivers and to place the conversion from analog to digital signals as close to the telescope feed as possible, a prototype single-conversion, sideband-separating mixer receiver with a tunable local oscillator (LO) between 5 and 9 GHz has been built and tested. After straightforward gain and phase calibratio...

In this work we present a Schottky diode grid mixer suitable for mixing or detecting quasi-optical signals. The mixer is a planar bow-tie grid structure periodically loaded with diodes. A simple transmission line model is used to predict the reflection coefficient of the grid to a normally incident plane wave. The grid mixer power handling and dynamic range scales as the number of devices in th...

This paper presents a design of an UWB downconversion integrated CMOS resistive ring mixer with Linear Voltage Regulator (LVR), to supply required biasing voltages for the mixer section. The designed mixer circuit has been optimized for using in heart rate extraction system with microwave Doppler radar at 2.4GHz frequency. This mixer needs 2 DC bias voltages equal to 0.5 and 1 volts for its bes...

This paper describes a CMOS mixer core, operating at 1GHz, where the RF signal is input via the bulk. The advantages of a bulk driven mixer are low power supply voltages and low power consumption. Simulations have confirmed that a power supply as low as 1V can be used to power the mixer core, which drains approximately 1.6mA. Although the mixer core consumes very low power, it still provides re...

The original Mixer corpus was designed to satisfy developing commercial and forensic needs. The resulting Mixer corpora, Phases 1 through 5, have evolved to support and increasing variety of research tasks, including multilingual and cross-channel recognition. The Mixer Phases 4 and 5 corpora feature a wider variety of channels and greater variation in the situations under which the speech is r...

Let C be a binary linear self-dual doubly-even code of length n and minimal weight d. Such codes exist only if 12 = 0 (mod 8). We put II = 24r + 8s, s = 0, 1, 2. It follows from the work of Gleason [2] and of Mallows and Sloane [6] that d s 4r + 4. C is called extremal if d = 4r + 4. In the following, an extremal code means a binary linear self-dual doubly-even extremal code. We use the set-the...

Intermodulation distortion (IMD) suppression is a critical issue in modern military and commercial RF/microwave systems. Pressed by the demands imposed by distortion-sensitive digital modulation formats, modern systems routinely specify linearity requirements that are impossible to attain using conventional approaches. To meet these new challenges, Marki Microwave has introduced the Two-Tone-Te...

This mixer is based on a passive FET resistive frequency converter cell described by first described in the literature by Steven Maas [ ] and explored by Wes Hayward and others [ ]. One difficulty with a DFET passive mixer is obtaining negative gate bias. This has been achieved using gate conduction as in the TriQuint 5M31 [Campbell, Criss], a LO frequency driven negative voltage converter as i...
