Abstract In quantum optics, it is common to assume that atoms can be approximated as point-like compared to the wavelength of the light they interact with. However, recent advances in experiments with artificial atoms built from superconducting circuits have shown that this assumption can be violated. Instead, these artificial atoms can couple to an electromagnetic field at multiple points, which are spaced wavelength distances apart. In this chapter, we present a survey of such systems, which we call giant atoms. The main novelty of giant atoms is that the multiple coupling points give rise to interference effects that are not present in quantum optics with ordinary, small atoms. We discuss both theoretical and experimental results for single and multiple giant atoms, and show how the interference effects can be used for interesting applications. We also give an outlook for this emerging field of quantum optics.

AbstractVarious recommender systems (RSs) have been developed over recent years, and many of them have concentrated on English content. Thus, the majority of RSs from the literature were compared on English content. However, the research investigations about RSs when using contents in other languages such as Arabic are minimal. The researchers still neglect the field of Arabic RSs. Therefore, we aim through this study to fill this research gap by leveraging the benefit of recent advances in the English RSs field. Our main goal is to investigate recent RSs in an Arabic context. For that, we firstly selected five state-of-the-art RSs devoted originally to English content, and then we empirically evaluated their performance on Arabic content. As a result of this work, we first build four publicly available large-scale Arabic datasets for recommendation purposes. Second, various text preprocessing techniques have been provided for preparing the constructed datasets. Third, our investigation derived well-argued conclusions about the usage of modern RSs in the Arabic context. The experimental results proved that these systems ensure high performance when applied to Arabic content.

The classical method of solving electromagnetic field problems involving boundary perturbations is reformulated in a way that is both more general and simpler. The new formulation makes it easier to apply the theory to the class of boundaries amenable to the classical formulation, and shows that it can also be applied to other boundary shapes. As an example, the perfectly conducting sphere with surface perturbations has been treated, using the methods appropriate only for boundaries in the classical class and also using those applicable to the larger class. Some experimental results which appear to support the theory are reported.

Electric vehicles (EVs) with wireless power transfer (WPT) systems are convenient, but WPT technology will produce a strong stray electromagnetic field (EMF) in the surrounding space when the system works with high power. Shielding coils can reduce stray EMF efficiently without additional control, and they have advantages of being simple, light, and cheap. In this paper, the series-opposing structure is compared systematically with the inductive structure based on circuit theory and electromagnetic field theory. Simplified circuit models are proposed to give an intuitive and comprehensive analysis of transfer efficiency. Electric field analysis and finite element analysis (FEA) is used to explain the functional principles of shielding coils and to compare the EMF distribution excited by two structures. The simulation results show that both structures decrease the mutual inductance and perform better than the system without shielding coils when they have the same transfer efficiency. Further, the inductive structure system performs best. The most important between two structures is that the shielding effects is independent of turns of shielding coils for inductive structure, while it can be adjusted by changing turns of shielding coils for the series-opposing structure. The experimental results show that the EMF is reduced by 65% for the inductive structure and 40% for the series-opposing structure. The theoretical analysis is confirmed by experimental results.

With the purpose to compare the physical features of the electromagnetic field, we describe the synthesis of optical singularities propagating in the free space and on a metal surface. In both cases the electromagnetic field has a slit-shaped curve as a boundary condition, and the singularities correspond to a shock wave that is a consequence of the curvature of the slit curve. As prototypes, we generate singularities that correspond to fold and cusped regions. We show that singularities in free space may generate bifurcation effects while plasmon fields do not generate these kinds of effects. Experimental results for free-space propagation are presented and for surface plasmon fields, computer simulations are shown.

The crosstalk fault in VLSI circuits is one of the interference effects being caused by parasitic capacitance and inductance coupling, it can lead to functional errors of circuits. It is necessary to detect the crosstalk faults in order to insure the functions of circuits. A new test method for crosstalk faults in VLSI circuits based on multiple-valued decision diagrams is presented in this paper, the test vectors of crosstalk faults are generated by building a multiple-valued decision diagram that is a difference operation of the two multiple-valued decision diagrams corresponding to the normal circuit and faulty circuit, respectively. One advantage of the test method is that it can get all test vectors of a given crosstalk fault, therefore for a digital circuit, the test set with minimal number of test vectors can be obtained. Experimental results on a lot of digital circuits demonstrate the feasibility of the method proposed in this paper.
