In this work, transient resonant motions excited in linearised scattering interactions are approximated using a simple damped harmonic oscillator model. The scattering interactions considered involve the diffraction of an incident wave-train with a dominant regular timeharmonic component by structures which enclose a portion of the free surface. Provided a single resonant mode only is excited s...

AbstractThis letter represent a symmetrically notch loaded stacked circular half disk patch antenna. It is found that the bandwidth of the antenna depends directly on the notch dimensions. Bandwidth of the notch loaded stacked circular half disk patch is found to be 44.56 %. This antenna can be applicable for Wireless Local Area Network and ISM Band. Two parallel notches are incorporated to per...

We report the coexistence of low threshold lasing and strong coupling in a high-quality semiconductor microcavity under near-resonant optical pumping. A sharp laser mode splits from the lower-polariton branch and approaches the bare cavity mode frequency as the pump power increases. The lasing is produced by low density localized exciton states, which are weakly coupled to the cavity mode. The ...

Dissipation in the clock tree and state elements of ASIC designs is often a significant fraction of total energy consumption. We propose a methodology for recovering most of this energy by using a novel energy recovering flip-flop and a novel single-phase resonant clock generator. As our state element has near-zero energy consumption when the input data is not switching, it provides the savings...

A universal integral equation has been derived and solved for the nonlinear evolution of collective modes driven by kinetic wave particle resonances just above the threshold for instability. The dominant nonlinearity stems from the dynamics of resonant particles which can be treated perturbatively near the marginal state of the system. With a resonant particle source and classical relaxation pr...

We examine the nature of ac electrowetting (EW)-driven axisymmetric oscillations of a sessile water drop on a dielectric substrate. In ac EW, small-amplitude oscillations of a drop differ from the Rayleigh linear modes of freely oscillating drops. In this paper, we demonstrate that changes in the time-averaged contact angle of the sessile drop attributed to the presence of an electric field and...

The use of resonant structures to control scattering strength and directionality is of importance in various electromagnetic systems. Here we propose and demonstrate sub-wavelength unidirectional scattering by two nearby spoof localized surface plasmon resonators for microwave. The principle is that metal surfaces corrugated by grooves can support magnetic dipolar modes, as well as electric dip...

Much is known about the nonlinear resonant response of mechanical systems, but methods for the systematic design of structures that optimize aspects of these responses have received little attention. Progress in this area is particularly important in the area of micro-systems, where nonlinear resonant behaviour is being used for a variety of applications in sensing and signal conditioning. In t...

In order to investigate the origin of the phase transition observed in NaV2O5, as well as its electronic structure, we have measured Raman intensities as a function of the laser wavelength above and below the phase transition temperature. In the polarized Raman spectra at room temperature we observe resonant enhancement of the 969 cm phonon mode when the laser energy approaches 2.7 eV, presumab...

In this paper, we propose a novel mechanism for suppression of higher-order modes (HOMs), namely multiple resonant coupling, in all-solid photonic bandgap fibers (PBGFs) with effectively large core diameters. In an analogy to the well-known tight-binding theory in solid-state physics, multiple anti-resonant reflecting optical waveguide (ARROW) modes bound in designedly arranged defects in the c...
