Our results provide insights of the mechanism of irradiation resistance in the high entropy alloy and could be useful in material design for irradiation tolerance and accident tolerance materials in nuclear energy.Ferroelectric random-access memories based on conventional perovskite materials are non-volatile but suffer from lack of CMOS compatibility, scalability limitation, and a destructive reading scheme. On the other hand, Ferroelectric Tunnel Junctions (FTJs) based on CMOS compatible hafnium oxide are a promising candidate for future non-volatile memory technology due to their simple structure, scalability, low power consumption, high operation speed, and non-destructive read-out operation. Herein, we report an efficient strategy based on the interface-engineering approach to improve upon the tunneling electroresistance effect and data retention by depositing bilayer oxide heterostructure (Al2O3/Hf0.5Zr0.5O2) using atomic layer deposition (ALD) on Ge substrate which is treated in-situ ALD chamber with H2-plasma before film deposition. Integrating a thin ferroelectric layer i.e. Hf0.5Zr0.5O2 (8.4 nm) with a thin interface layer i.e. Al2O3 (1 nm) allowed us to reduce the operation (read and write) voltage to 1.4 V, and 4.3 V, respectively, while maintaining a good tunneling electroresistance or ON/OFF ratio above 10. Furthermore, an extrapolation to 1000 years at room temperature gives a residual ON/OFF ratio of 4.In this work we describe a proposal for a graphene-based nanostructure that modulates electric current even in the absence of a gap in the band structure. The device consists of a graphene p-n junction that acts as a Veselago lens that focuses ballistic electrons on the output lead. Applying external (electric and magnetic) fields changes the position of the output focus, reducing the transmission. Such device can be applied to low power field effect transistors, which can benefit from graphene's high electronic mobility.Some novel magnetic behaviours in double perovskite Eu2CoMnO6 (ECMO) have been reported. The x-ray photoemission spectroscopy study shows the presence of mixed valence states of transition metal ions. The UV-visible absorption spectroscopic study suggests that the ECMO has a direct wide band gap. A second-order magnetic phase transition as a sudden jump in the magnetization curve has been observed around 124.5 K. The large bifurcation between the zero field cooling and field cooling, suggests existence of strong spin frustration in the system. The inverse DC susceptibility confirms the presence of the Griffiths like phase. Sharp steps in magnetization have been observed in the M-H curve at 2 K, which vanishes on increasing temperature. The AC susceptibility study demonstrates the Hopkinson like effect as well as the presence of volume spin-glass-like behaviour. The temperature dependent Raman spectrum shows the presence of spin-phonon coupling.Postmortem analysis of the brain from a blind human subject that had a cortical visual prosthesis implanted for 36 years (Dobelle, 2000) provides insight into the optimal design characteristics of a successful human cortical visual prosthesis, by revealing, (a) unexpected rotation of the electrode array about 40 degrees away from the midsagittal plan, thought to be due to the torque of the connecting cable, (b) degeneration of the platinum electrodes, and (c) only partial coverage of the primary visual cortex by the rectangular array. The electrode array only overlapped with the anterior 45% of primary visual cortex (identified by the line of Gennari), largely missing the posterior foveal representation of visual cortex. Histology did not reveal appreciable loss of neurons in cortex that surrounded the migrated array, perhaps due to the very slow rotation of this implant. The proportion of stimulated electrodes that elicited phosphenes was higher over extrastriate cortex, compared to striate cortex (p less then .05). This pioneering effort to develop a cortical visual prosthesis suggests that to maximize efficacy, the long-term effects of implanted alien materials on nervous tissue, and vice versa, need to be considered in detail, and that electrode array design considerations need to optimally match the electrodes to the patient's cortical anatomy. Trastuzumab deruxtecan Modern pre-implant imaging can help optimize future implants by identifying the location and extent of bridging veins with MRI and even map the location of the V1/V2 border in vivo with PET.With the advent of a new generation of neutrino experiments which leverage high-intensity neutrino beams for precision neutrino oscillation parameter and for CP violation phase measurements, it is timely to explore physics topics beyond the standard neutrino-related physics. Given that beyond the standard model (BSM) physics phenomena have been mostly sought at high-energy regimes, such as the LHC at CERN, the exploration of BSM physics in neutrino experiments will enable complementary measurements at the energy regimes that balance that of the LHC. This is in concert with new ideas for high-intensity beams for fixed target and beam-dump experiments world-wide. The combination of the high intensity beam facilities and large mass detectors with highly precise track and energy measurements, excellent timing resolution, and low energy thresholds will help make BSM physics reachable even in low energy regimes in accelerator-based experiments and searches for BSM phenomena from cosmogenic origin. Therefore, it is conceivable that BSM topics could be the dominant physics topics in the foreseeable future. In this spirit, this paper provides a review of the current theory landscape theory in neutrino experiments in two selected areas of the BSM topics - dark matter and neutrino related BSM - and summarizes the current results from existing neutrino experiments for benchmark. This paper then provides a review of upcoming neutrino experiments and their capabilities to set the foundation for potential reach in BSM physics in the two themes. One of the most important outcomes of this paper is to ensure theoretical and simulation tools exist to perform studies of these new areas of physics from the first day of the experiments, such as DUNE and Hyper-K. Tasks to accomplish this goal, and the time line for them to be completed and tested to become reliable tools in a timely fashion are also discussed.
