New Absolute Stability Conditions of Lur’e Systems with Time-Varying Delay by Wei Wang, Hong-Bing Zeng

“…By considering the relationship between the time-varying delay and its varying interval, improved delay-dependent absolute stability conditions in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) are obtained. Moreover, the derived conditions are extended to systems with time-varying structured uncertainties. …”

Anharmonic effects control interaction of carbyne confined in carbon nanotubes shaping their vibrational properties by Emil Parth, Andrea Corradini, Weili Cui, Davide Romanin, Christin Schuster, Clara Freytag, Lei Shi, Kazuhiro Yanagi, Matteo Calandra, Thomas Pichler

“…The resonant Raman fingerprint of confined carbyne comes concomitant with several new features which can neither be assigned to the hosting tube, nor to the linear carbon chain. This identifies the tube-chain system as a true hybrid structure in which the spectrum is usually driven by modifications in the electronic excitations via charge transfer. …”

Machine Learning Approach to Characterize Ferromagnetic La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 Thin Films via Featurization of Surface Morphology by Sanghyeok Ryou, Jihyun Lim, Minwoo Jang, Kitae Eom, Sunwoo Lee, Hyungwoo Lee

“…These properties are known to arise from Mn‐O‐Mn double‐exchange interactions, which are directly related to microscopic lattice structures. However, since the microscopic structure in LSMO is highly sensitive to various material parameters, such as thickness, lattice strain, oxygen deficiency, and cation stoichiometry, understanding the intricate relationship between the microscopic structures and the resulting physical properties of LSMO remains challenging. …”
