Hybrid Technique for the EM Scattering Analysis with the Use of Ring Domain Decomposition
PublicationA hybrid technique combining finite-element and mode-matching methods for the analysis of scattering problems in open space is presented here. The main idea is based on impedance matrix descriptions of the boundary surrounding the discrete computational domain and combine it with external field described analytically. The discrete analysis, which is the most time- and memory-consuming, is limited here only to the close proximity...

First, we concentrate on a hermitian unitary noise model U for a two-access bi-unitary channel and show that in this case a decoherence-free code exists if the space of Schmidt matrices of an eigensubspace of U exhibits certain properties of decomposability. Then, we show that our technique is also applicable for generic random unitary...

Effect of shallow traps on admittance spectra of the system carrying SCLC and on values of charge carrier mobility extracted from susceptance
PublicationThe work concerns small-signal spectra of space-charge-limited current below threshold frequency (ft) of shallow traps.
