We show in this work an oblique layered system that is capable of manipulating two dimensional subwavelength images. Through properly designed planar layered system, we demonstrate analytically that lateral image shift could be achieved with subwavelength resolution, due to the asymmetry of the dispersion curve of con…

The titanium tantalum oxide, TiTaO, was fully characterized in situ in an integrated metal–insulator–metal (MIM) configuration on a wide frequency band, from 1 mHz to 30 GHz. First, XPS and XRD analysis show that TiTaO dielectric is amorphous and presents Ti-O, Ta-O, and Ti-Ta bounds. Next, by using dedicated MIM test…

Lead-free (Na0.5K0.5)NbO3 (NKN) ceramics doped with 1 mol% CuNb2O6 (01CN) ceramics were prepared using the conventional mixed oxide method at a sintering temperature of 1075 °C. NKN + 1 mol% CuTa2O6 (NKN-01CN) ceramics sintered at 1075 °C exhibit excellent “hard” piezoelectric properties of kp = 40%, kt = 45%, and k33…

The plasmon energy of the solid and liquid phases of pure Al, and an Al-Si alloy, was recorded as a function of temperature. For the case of pure Al, the trend in the solid and liquid phases followed the expected behavior based on a free (specific) volume change. Quantitatively, the slope of Ep versus T was −0.5 meV/K…
