A novel omnidirectional circularly polarized (CP) slot array antenna with high gain is proposed, which is based on the coaxial cylinder structure, and the orthogonal slots radi‐ ated the circular polarization wave around the cylinder. Further, the improved dual cir‐ cularly polarized (CP) omnidirectional antenna based on slot array in coaxial cylinder structure is presented too, and two ports a...

Angle-resolved photoelectron spectra of argon atoms by XUV attosecond pulses in the presence of a circularly polarized laser field are calculated to examine their dependence on the duration and the chirp of the attosecond pulses. From the calculated electron spectra, we show how to retrieve the duration and the chirp of the attosecond pulse using genetic algorithm. The method is expected to be ...

We investigate the electronic states of BiTeI after the optical pumping with circularly polarized photons. Our data show that photoexcited electrons reach an internal thermalization within 300 fs of the arrival of the pump pulse. Instead, the dichroic contrast generated by the circularly polarized light relaxes on a time scale shorter than 80 fs. This result implies that orbital and spin polari...

We experimentally demonstrate that the magnetization can be reversed in a reproducible manner by a single 40 femtosecond circularly polarized laser pulse, without any applied magnetic field. This optically induced ultrafast magnetization reversal previously believed impossible is the combined result of femtosecond laser heating of the magnetic system to just below the Curie point and circularly...

Non-Symmetrical Plastic Collapse Modes of a Symmetrically Loaded Circular Cylinder. P18stic collapse modes of a thick-walled homogeneous cylinder under circularly-symmetrical loading (internal and external normal pressures) are analyzed. Ideal plasticity, I-IUBEIt-~ISES-HENC]~Y yield condition, incompressibility and plane strain conditions are assumed. The possibility of existence of non-syrm~e...

Phospholipase C produces two second messengers--diacylglycerol (DAG), which remains in the membrane, and inositol triphosphate (IP(3)), which triggers the release of calcium ions (Ca(2+)) from intracellular stores. Genetically encoded sensors based on a single circularly permuted fluorescent protein (FP) are robust tools for studying intracellular Ca(2+) dynamics. We have developed a robust sen...

Helically chiral N,N,O,O-boron chelated dipyrromethenes showed solution-phase circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) in the red region of the visible spectrum (λem (max) from 621 to 663 nm). The parent dipyrromethene is desymmetrised through O chelation of boron by the 3,5-ortho-phenolic substituents, inducing a helical chirality in the fluorophore. The combination of high luminescence dissymm...

A dual-band circularly polarized antenna is presented in this paper. A rectangular patch antenna with gap-feeding structure is firstly designed, and 3-dB axial-ratio bandwidth from 2.35 to 2.48GHz is obtained. A parasitic square ring is placed on the rear of the rectangular patch as a band-notch unit operating around 2.4 GHz. Then an original wide circularly polarized band is split into two ban...

We give the n! permutations of [n] = {1,2, . . . , n} a cyclic order inspired by the children’s game of Hot Potato. Our order is a transposition Gray code, meaning that consecutive permutations differ by a single transposition. Furthermore, each transposition is restricted in two ways: (1) It must transpose value n (the “hot potato”); (2) It must transpose positions that are circularly adjacent...

Abstract—A novel circularly polarized cavity-backed antenna (CBA) excited by crossed bowtie dipoles is presented in this paper. It is fed by a transition from a microstrip line to doubleslot lines. The crossed dipoles consist of a top-loaded triangular and a filleted rhombic to achieve the required input impedance relations for circularly polarized radiation. After optimization, a simulated 3-d...
