    Optimization of tangential interior brushless DC motor rotor for hybrid vehicles

    Hybrid vehicle oil pump motors commonly employ permanent magnet brushless DC motors. Due to the presence of rotor permanent magnets, it inevitably generates cogging torque, which seriously affects the low-speed performance of the motor19….

    Quantum reservoir probing of quantum phase transitions

    Framework of the QRP

    Before going to the QRP, we provide an overview of a brain-inspired machine-learning framework called reservoir computing36,37,38. In this paradigm, information is nonlinearly processed by networks of artificial neurons,…

  • Active Polymers Tie Themselves in Knots

    • Physics 18, s55

    Simulations show that polymers that include inert and self-propelled components are more likely to form and retain knots, with possible applications in materials engineering.

    Long molecules can become…

  • Ultra-weak infrared light detection based on steep-slope phototransistors

    Ultra-weak infrared light detection based on steep-slope phototransistors

    To examine our argument, we begin by analyzing the working mechanism for a semiconductor phototransistor/diode. This kind of device is the most commonly used photodetector, It mainly contains a semiconductor (e.g., p-n or p-i-n) junction7 (It…

    Exchange anisotropies in microwave-driven singlet-triplet qubits

    The schematics of the device used in the experiment is shown in Fig. 1a. Electrostatic gates deplete the two-dimensional hole gas beneath, creating a double quantum dot (DQD) on the bottom part of the device to be operated as a qubit. A single…
