Luminescence properties of ZnSe single crystals co-doped with Fe and Cr by K. Lamonova, A. Prokhorov, M. Schmidbauer, A. Kwasniewski, Yu Kazarinov, M. Konuhova, A. Platonenko, Z. Remeš, K. Ridzoňová, M. Buryi

“…Analysis of the VIS and near-IR photoluminescence spectra, based on the modified crystal field theory and DFT calculations has shown that Fe and Cr exist in two charge states (+2/+3) and can be located in both tetrahedral and octahedral positions. In the blue light region, quantum dots (QDs) appear. These represent clusters of three Cr-containing octahedral complexes accompanied by Zn vacancies, anticipating the formation of spinel ZnCr2Se4 inclusions in the host chalcogenide ZnSe matrix.…”

Evaluation of the Single-component Thermal Dust Emission Model in Cosmic Microwave Background Experiments by Hao Liu, Jia-Rui Li, Yi-Fu Cai

“…It is well known that multiple Galactic thermal dust emission components may exist along the line of sight, but a single-component approximation is still widely used, since a full multicomponent estimation requires a large number of frequency bands that are only available with future experiments. In light of this, we present a reliable, quantitative, and sensitive criterion to test the goodness of all kinds of dust emission estimations. …”

The Middle to Late Triassic of Central Saudi Arabia with emphasis on the Jilh Formation. Part II: sequence stratigraphy, depositional and structural history, correlations and paleo... by Le Nindre, Yves-Michel, Davies, Roger Brett, Issautier, Benoit, Krystyn, Leopold, Vaslet, Denis, Vrielynck, Bruno, Memesh, Abdullah

“…The ages of subsurface lithostratigraphic units identified elsewhere across the Arabian Plate, notably the “Jilh, Sefidar and Marker Dolomites”, “Jilh Evaporite” (sometimes “Carnian Salinity Crisis”) and the incertae sedis Baluti Formation, and their equivalence in the Saudi Arabian outcrops, are assessed in the light of these results. The presence of significant siliciclastics at the base of the Carnian stratigraphy (“Julian Clastic Event”) is also discussed.Ladinian conodont faunas belonging to the Sephardic Province (Iberia, North Africa) and associated vertebrate faunas confirm transgression from the north. …”

An Efficient Frequency Encoding Scheme for Optical Convolution Accelerator by Gongyu Xia, Jiacheng Liu, Qilin Hong, Pingyu Zhu, Ping Xu, Zhihong Zhu

“…For one-dimensional optical convolution accelerators, existing methods can fully utilize the working bandwidth of electro-optic modulators and the frequency resources of light sources. However, most convolution computations currently require the execution of two-dimensional matrix convolutions, and existing encoding schemes suffer a drop in terms of effective computations per second when performing two-dimensional matrix convolutions. …”
