Gold implanted germanium photoswitch for cavity dumping of a free-electron laser
Rana, R.; Klopf, J. M.; Ciano, C.; Singh, A.; Winnerl, S.; Schneider, H.; Helm, M.; Pashkin, O.
Abstract
We present a plasma switch based on gold implanted germanium (Ge:Au) as a potential candidate for efficient cavity dumping of a free-electron laser (FEL). Ge:Au has a sub-nanosecond carrier lifetime – much shorter than the FEL pulsing period of 77 ns – and demonstrates a high photoinduced reflectivity in a broad range of infrared wavelengths from 6 to 90 µm. The Ge:Au plasma switch exhibits negligible absorption of the FEL radiation in the ʻoff ʼ state and requires only moderate thermoelectric cooling for incident FEL power of several Watts. A reflectivity level of more than 50 % in the ‘on’ state is achieved over the entire spectral range of this study. The corresponding optical pump fluence exhibits a linear relationship with the FEL frequency. This scaling is corroborated by our simulations highlighting the role of a finite sub-µm thickness of the photoinduced reflecting plasma layer. The demonstrated device is promising for the realization of the FEL cavity dumping for experiments that simultaneously require higher pulse energy and lower average power.

Data for: Fusion of Dual Spatial Information for Hyperspectral Image Classification
Duan, P.; Ghamisi, P.; Kang, X.; Rasti, B.; Li, S.; Gloaguen, R.
Abstract
The inclusion of spatial information into spectral classifiers for fine-resolution hyperspectral imagery has led to significant improvements in terms of classification performance. The task of spectral-spatial hyperspectral image classification has remained challenging because of high intraclass spectrum variability and low interclass spectral variability. This fact has made the extraction of spatial information highly active. In this work, a novel hyperspectral image classification framework using the fusion of dual spatial information is proposed, in which the dual spatial information is built by both exploiting pre-processing feature extraction and post-processing spatial optimization. In the feature extraction stage, an adaptive texture smoothing method is proposed to construct the structural profile (SP), which makes it possible to precisely extract discriminative features from hyperspectral images. The SP extraction method is used here for the first time in the remote sensing community. Then, the extracted SP is fed into a spectral classifier. In the spatial optimization stage, a pixel-level classifier is used to obtain the class probability followed by an extended random walker-based spatial optimization technique. Finally, a decision fusion rule is utilized to fuse the class probabilities obtained by the two different stages. Experiments performed on three data sets from different scenes illustrate that the proposed method can outperform other state-of-the-art classification techniques. In addition, the proposed feature extraction method, i.e., SP, can effectively improve the discrimination between different land covers.

Data for: Remote Sensing Image Classification Using Subspace Sensor Fusion
Abstract
The amount of remote sensing and ancillary datasets captured by diverse airborne and spaceborne sensors has been tremendously increased, which opens up the possibility of utilizing multimodal datasets to improve the performance of processing approaches with respect to the application at hand. However, developing a generic framework with high generalization capability that can effectively fuse diverse datasets is a challenging task since the current approaches are usually only applicable to two specific sensors for data fusion. In this paper, we propose an accurate fusion-based technique called SubFus with capability to integrate diverse remote sensing data for land cover classification. Here, we assume that a high dimensional multisensor dataset can be represented fused features that live in a lower-dimensional space. The proposed classification methodology includes three main stages. First, spatial information is extracted by using spatial filters (i.e., morphology filters). Then, a novel low- rank minimization problem is proposed to represent the multisensor datasets in subspaces using fused features. The fused features in the lower-dimensional subspace are estimated using a novel iterative algorithm based on the alternative direction method of multipliers. Third, the final classification map is produced by applying a supervised spectral classifier (i.e., random forest) on the fused features. In the experiments, the proposed method is applied to a three-sensor (RGB, multispectral LiDAR, and hyperspectral images) dataset captured over the area of the University of Houston, the USA, and a two-sensor (hyperspectral and LiDAR) dataset captured over the city of Trento, Italy. The land-cover maps generated using SubFus are evaluated based on classification accuracies. Experimental results obtained by SubFus confirm considerable improvements in terms of classification accuracies compared with the other methods used in the experiments. The proposed fusion approach obtains 85.32% and 99.25% in terms of overall classification accuracy on the Houston (the training portion of the dataset distributed for the data fusion contest of 2018) and trento datasets, respectively.

The Road to Exascale
Abstract
Exascale is the next big step in the field of high-performance computing. However, the hardware configurations of supercomputers around the world are becoming increasingly heterogeneous. Programmers have to take into account varying processor architectures (x86, ARM, RISC-V, ...) as well as different accelerator types (multicore CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, ...) and the accompanying tools. Our goal is a portable stack of C++ libraries and tools. Together they shall form an ecosystem which abstracts away the differences between hardware configurations without sacrificing performance.

Four-Frequency Solution in a Magnetohydrodynamic Couette Flow as a Consequence of Azimuthal Symmetry Breaking
Garcia Gonzalez, F.; Seilmayer, M.; Giesecke, A.; Stefani, F.
Abstract
The occurrence of magnetohydrodynamic quasiperiodic flows with four fundamental frequencies in differentially rotating spherical geometry is understood in terms of a sequence of bifurcations breaking the azimuthal symmetry of the flow as the applied magnetic field strength is varied. These flows originate from unstable periodic and quasiperiodic states with broken equatorial symmetry, but having fourfold azimuthal symmetry. A posterior bifurcation gives rise to twofold symmetric quasiperiodic states, with three fundamental frequencies, and a further bifurcation to a four-frequency quasiperiodic state which has lost all the spatial symmetries. This bifurcation scenario may be favored when differential rotation is increased and periodic flows with m-fold azimuthal symmetry, m being a product of several prime numbers, emerge at sufficiently large magnetic field.

Abstract
This paper provides an up-to-date review of the problems related to the generation, detection and mitigation of strong electromagnetic pulses created in the interaction of high-power, high-energy laser pulses with different types of solid targets. It includes new experimental data obtained independently at several international laboratories. The mechanisms of electromagnetic field generation are analyzed and considered as a function of the intensity and the spectral range of emissions they produce. The major emphasis is put on the GHz frequency domain, which is the most damaging for electronics and may have important applications. The physics of electromagnetic emissions in other spectral domains, in particular THz and MHz, is also discussed. The theoretical models and numerical simulations are compared with the results of experimental measurements, with special attention to the methodology of measurements and complementary diagnostics. Understanding the underlying physical processes is the basis for developing techniques to mitigate the electromagnetic threat and to harness electromagnetic emissions, which may have promising applications.

Deep model simulation of polar vortices in gas giant atmospheres
Garcia, F.; Chambers, F. R. N.; Watts, A. L.
Abstract
The Cassini and Juno probes have revealed large coherent cyclonic vortices in the polar regions of Saturn and Jupiter, a dramatic contrast from the east–west banded jet structure seen at lower latitudes. Debate has centred on whether the jets are shallow, or extend to greater depths in the planetary envelope. Recent experiments and observations have demonstrated the relevance of deep convection models to a successful explanation of jet structure, and cyclonic coherent vortices away from the polar regions have been simulated recently including an additional stratified shallow layer. Here we present new convective models able to produce long-lived polar vortices. Using simulation parameters relevant for giant planet atmospheres we find flow regimes of geostrophic turbulence (GT) in agreement with rotating convection theory. The formation of large-scale coherent structures occurs via 3D upscale energy transfers. Our simulations generate polar characteristics qualitatively similar to those seen by Juno and Cassini: They match the structure of cyclonic vortices seen on Jupiter; or can account for the existence of a strong polar vortex extending downwards to lower latitudes with a marked spiral morphology, and the hexagonal pattern seen on Saturn. Our findings indicate that these vortices can be generated deep in the planetary interior. A transition differentiating these two polar flows regimes is described, interpreted in terms of force balances and compared with shallow atmospheric models characterizing polar vortex dynamics in giant planets. In addition, heat transport properties are investigated, confirming recent scaling laws obtained with reduced models of GT.

Bremsstrahlung emission and plasma characterization driven by moderately relativistic laser-plasma interactions
Singh, S. K.; Armstrong, C.; Kang, N.; Ren, L.; Liu, H.; Hua, N.; Rusby, D. R.; Klimo, O.; Versaci, R.; Zhang, Y.; Sun, M.; Zhu, B.; Lei, A.; Ouyang, X.; Lancia, L.; Laso Garcia, A.; Wagner, A.; Cowan, T. E.; Schlegel, T.; Weber, S.; McKenna, P.; Neely, D.; Tikhonchuk, V. T.; Kumar, D.; Zhu, J.
Abstract
Relativistic electrons generated by the interaction of petawatt-class short laser pulses with solid targets can be used to generate bright X-rays via bremsstrahlung. The efficiency of laser energy transfer into these electrons depends on multiple parameters including focused intensity and pre-plasma level. This paper describes the experimental results from the interaction of a high intensity petawatt-class glass laser with solid targets at a maximum intensity of 10^19 W/cm^2. In-situ measurements of specularly reflected light were used to provide an upper bound of laser absorption and to characterize focused laser intensity, the pre-plasma level and the generation mechanism of second harmonic light. The measured spectrum of electrons and bremsstrahlung radiation provide information about the efficiency of laser energy transfer.

Biohydrometallurgy
Abstract
Biohydrometallurgy is one of many different processes for metal recovery. As a highly interdisciplinary field, biohydrometallurgy combines microorganisms and their metabolites (-bio) in a mainly aquatic environment (-hydro) and the treatment of metal containing materials or solutions (-metallurgy) for metal production and treatment. It is applied to many different metal-rich materials from primary mineral sources, secondary mining products and numerous manufactured resources (Watling, 2015). Biohydrometallurgy is using biological tools for the processing of primary ores for many years – especially in case of bioleaching. Besides that, special biological tools can enhance the metal recovery from manufactured resources such as technical waste products, processing wastes, industrial waste waters and other secondary sources (Pollmann et al. 2018). In nature multiple processes exist that influence biogeochemical cycles of elements. These microorganism driven processes contribute to bioaccumulation, bio weathering, biomineralization and precipitation or microbial reduction. Using these bio-inspired processes promotes biological recycling strategies as well as several clean industrial processes, bio-based materials and bioremediation. Modern bio-based approaches that are currently being developed for the recycling of value elements found in technical products contributing to a “green” circular economy. Main processes in biohydrometallurgy are bioleaching, biosorption, bioflotation and bioreduction.

Chaotic wave dynamics in weakly magnetized spherical Couette flows
Garcia Gonzalez, F.; Seilmayer, M.; Giesecke, A.; Stefani, F.
Abstract
Direct numerical simulations of a liquid metal filling the gap between two concentric spheres are presented. The flow is governed by the interplay between the rotation of the inner sphere (measured by the Reynolds number Re) and a weak externally applied axial magnetic field (measured by the Hartmann number Ha). By varying the latter, a rich variety of flow features, both in terms of spatial symmetry and temporal dependence, is obtained. Flows with two or three independent frequencies describing their time evolution are found as a result of Hopf bifurcations. They are stable on a sufficiently large interval of Hartmann numbers where regions of multistability of two, three, and even four types of these different flows are detected. The temporal character of the solutions is analyzed by means of an accurate frequency analysis and Poincaré sections. An unstable branch of flows undergoing a period doubling cascade and frequency locking of three-frequency solutions is described as well.

Printable anisotropic magnetoresistance sensors for highly compliant electronics
Oliveros Mata, E. S.; Canon Bermudez, G. S.; Ha, M.; Kosub, T.; Zabila, Y.; Faßbender, J.; Makarov, D.
Abstract
Printed electronics are attractive due to their low-cost and large-area processing features, which have been successfully extended to magnetoresistive sensors and devices. Here, we introduce and characterize a new kind of magnetoresistive paste based on the anisotropic magnetoresistive (AMR) effect. The paste is a composite of 100-nm-thick permalloy/tantalum flakes embedded in an elastomer matrix, which promotes the formation of appropriately conductive percolation networks. Sensors printed with this paste showed stable magnetoresistive properties upon mechanical bending. The AMR value of this sensor is 0.34% in the field of 400 mT. Still, the response is stable and allows to resolve sub-mT field steps. When printed on ultra-thin 2.5-μm-thick Mylar foil, the sensor can be completely folded without losing magnetoresistive performance and mechanically withstand 20 μm bending radius. The developed compliant printed AMR sensor would be attractive to implement on curved and/or dynamic bendable surfaces for on-skin applications and interactive printed electronics.

Untersuchungen zur Optimierung der Selektivität bei der Extraktion von Indium durch gezielte Komplexbildung
Göthel, J.
Abstract
Indium kann sekundärmetallurgisch aus der Prozessierung von Schlacken, Flugstäuben und metallischen Zwischenprodukten aus der Zinkdarstellung gewonnen werden. Eine weitere Möglichkeit der Indiumgewinnung stellt sich in der Aufbereitung von Rückständen des Bergbaus durch Biolaugungsprozesse dar. Höhere Konzentrationen an Eisen und Zink sind in den gewinnbaren Laugen im Vergleich zu sehr niedrigen Indiumkonzentrationen häufig präsent. Ein Trenn- und Aufbereitungsverfahren für die Verarbeitung von hydro-metallurgischen Prozesslösungen und die Gewinnung von Einsatzstoffen aus diesen wird durch Ionenaustauscherharze realisiert. Sowohl kationische als auch anionische feste Ionenaustauscherharze zeigen für Indium in sauren wässrigen Lösungen eine Affinität für die Indiumadsorption. Hinsichtlich der selektiven Adsorption von Indium gegenüber Eisen und Zink mittels festen Anionenaustauschern wurde der Einfluss der selektiven Komplexbildung von Indium durch die Zugabe von Iod in der Form von Kaliumiodid auf die Adsorption untersucht. Als Referenzsystem wurde die Indiumadsorption an festen Kationen-austauscherharzen gewählt. Die selektive Adsorption für Indium wurde aus einer vereinfachten Modelllösung der Biolaugungslösung des „ReMining“-Projektes hinsichtlich der Faktorgrößen des pH-Wertes, der Kaliumiodid- und Indiumadsorption im kleineren Maßstab im Becherglas untersucht. Die bestimmten Optima wurden auf die Prozessierung der realen Biolaugungslösung in Ionenaustauschersäulen angewandt. Indium kann in vergleichbaren quantitativen Mengen sowohl als anionischer Komplex ([InI4]-) von den getesteten Anionenaustauscherharzen A 111 und A 500 als auch von dem Kationenaustauscherharz MTS 9300 als Kation In3+ durch Adsorption aus der Modell- und Biolaugungslösung extrahiert werden. Beide Ionenaustauscher zeigen höchste Selektivitäten gegenüber Eisen, Arsen und Aluminium. Der Vergleich der Konzentrationsverhältnisse von Feed und dem Eluat zeigt, dass Eisen zu ~ 700 Mal mehr wie Indium (Fe/In = ~ 700) im Feed vorhanden ist und nach dem Ionenaustausch ~ 0,7 Mal so viel wie Indium (Fe/In = ~ 0,7) im Eluat verbleibt. Kupfer und Cadmium konnten von dem Anionenaustauscherharz A 111 nicht mit destilliertem Wasser und 0,1 M Schwefelsäure eluiert werden. In der Gesamtbetrachtung der selektiven Adsorption und Eluation von Indium aus der realen Biolaugungslösung ist das Kationenaustauscherharz MTS 9300 dem Anionenaustauscherharz A 111 vorzuziehen.

A bimodal soft electronic skin for tactile and touchless interaction in real time
Ge, J.; Wang, X.; Drack, M.; Volkov, O.; Liang, M.; Canon Bermudez, G. S.; Wang, C.; Zhou, S.; Faßbender, J.; Kaltenbrunner, M.; Makarov, D.
Abstract
The transformative emergence of smart electronics, human-friendly robotics and supplemented or virtual reality will revolutionize the interplay with our surrounding. The complexity that is involved in the manipulation of objects in these emerging technologies is dramatically increased, which calls for electronic skins (e-skin) that can conduct tactile and touchless sensing events in a simultaneous and unambiguous way. Integrating multiple functions in a single sensing unit offers the most promising path towards simple, scalable and intuitive-to-use e-skin architectures. However, by now, this path has always been hindered by the confusing overlap of signals from different stimuli.
Here, we put forward the field of soft, flexible electronics by developing a compliant magnetic microelectromechanical platform (m-MEMS), which is able to transduce both tactile (via mechanical pressure) and touchless (via magnetic field) stimulations simultaneously and discriminate them in real time [1]. For the first time, the electric signals from tactile and touchless interactions are intrinsically separated into two different regions, allowing the m-MEMS, a single sensor unit, to unambiguously distinguish the two modes without knowing the signal history.
Owing to its intrinsic magnetic functionality, our complaint m-MEMS platform is able to discriminate magnetic vs. non-magnetic objects already upon touchless interaction. With this intrinsic selectivity, we address the long-standing problem in the field of touchless interaction – namely, the issue of interference with objects, which are irrelevant or even disturbing the interaction process. In addition, the interaction process is programmable. The sensitivity of the two interaction modes could be tuned by adjusting the magnetic field of the objects able to meet the requirements of different interaction tasks.
By using tactile and touchless sensing functions simultaneously, our m-MEMS e-skins enable complex interactions with a magnetically functionalized physical object that is supplemented with content data appearing in the virtual reality. We demonstrated data selection and manipulation with our m-MEMS e-skins leading to the realization of a multi-choice for augmented reality through three dimensional (3D) touch. Beyond the field of augmented reality, our m-MEMS will bring great benefits for healthcare, e.g. to ease surgery operations and manipulation of medical equipment, as well as for humanoid robots to overcome the challenging task of grasping.

Flexible highly compliant magnetoelectronics
Canon Bermudez, G. S.; Ge, J.; Faßbender, J.; Kaltenbrunner, M.; Makarov, D.
Abstract
Mechanical flexibility and even stretchability of functional elements is a key enabler of numerous applications including wearable electronics, healthcare and medical appliances. The magnetism community developed the family of high-performance shapeable magnetoelectronics [1], which contain flexible [2-4], printable [5-7], stretchable [8-11] and even mechanically imperceptible [12-16] magnetic field sensorics. The technology relies on a smart combination of thin inorganic functional elements prepared directly on flexible or elastomeric supports. The concept of shapeable magnetoelectronics is explored for various applications ranging from automotive [17] through consumer electronics and point of care [2,18] to virtual and augmented reality [14-16] applications.
Here, we will focus on the use of compliant magnetosensitive skins [14-16] for augmented reality systems. We demonstrate that e-skin compasses [14] allow humans to orient with respect to earth’s magnetic field ubiquitously. The biomagnetic orientation enables the realization of a touchless control of virtual units in a game engine using omnidirectional magnetosensitive skins (Fig. 1).
This concept was further extended by demonstrating a compliant magnetic microelectromechanical platform (m-MEMS), which is able to transduce both tactile (via mechanical pressure) and touchless (via magnetic field) stimulations simultaneously and discriminate them in real time [16] (Fig. 2). We demonstrate data selection and manipulation with our m-MEMS e-skins leading to the realization of a multi-choice menu for augmented reality through three dimensional (3D) touch. Beyond the field of augmented reality, our m-MEMS will bring great benefits for healthcare, e.g. to ease surgery operations and manipulation of medical equipment, as well as for humanoid robots to overcome the challenging task of grasping.

Druckbare Hochleistungs-Magnetoelektronik
Abstract
Gedruckte Elektronik wird das Gebiet der konventionellen Elektronik revolutionieren und eine kostengünstige, großflächige Produktion mit hohem Durchsatz ermöglichen. Durch Hinzufügen eines Magnetfeldsensors zur Familie der druckbaren Elektronik [1] wollen wir energieeffiziente kontaktlose Schalter für intelligente Verpackungen oder Postkarten sowie intelligente und schützende Kleidung (z. B. für Feuerwehrleute, Sportler) realisieren mit einem In- Stoff integrierte Navigations- und Positionsverfolgungsmodule. Für dieses Konzept wurden hochleistungsfähige druckbare Magnetfeldsensoren realisiert, die auf dem Riesenmagnetowiderstandseffekt (GMR) beruhen [2]. Diese Sensoren werden aus einer Paste gedruckt, die GMR-Flocken enthält, welche mittels Dünnschichttechnologien hergestellt wurden. Solche GMR-Sensoren können auch auf flexiblen Substraten siebgedruckt werden und bleiben in einem Temperaturbereich von -10°C bis +95°C [3] gemäß den Anforderungen an die Unterhaltungselektronik voll funktionsfähig.
In dieser Präsentation werden wir die aktuelle Technologie zur Realisierung von druckbaren Hochleistungs-Magnetfeldsensoren überprüfen. Wir werden zeigen, dass GMR-Sensoren auf ultradünne Polymerfolien mit einer Foliendicke von bis zu 6 µm gedruckt werden können. Die Verwendung eines geeigneten Polymerbindemittels für die GMR-Paste gewährleistet hervorragende Perkolationskontakte zwischen GMR-Mikroflocken und ermöglicht eine hohe Sensorempfindlichkeit von 3 T-1 bei einem niedrigen Magnetfeld von etwa 1 mT. Die Haftung zwischen dem gedruckten Sensor und der Polymerfolie ist ausreichend stark, um einer Biegung des Sensors auf einen Krümmungsradius von 16 µm standzuhalten, ohne die mechanische Integrität der Vorrichtung zu beeinträchtigen. Mit dieser Leistung können unsere gedruckten GMR-Sensoren für interaktive Elektronik auf der Haut verwendet werden, die wir mit einer berührungslosen Steuerung virtueller Objekte für die praktische Anwendung in tragbaren Geräten, künstlicher Prothetik, Robotik und im Internet der Dinge präsentieren.

Nanomagnetism of Magnetoelectric Granular Thin-Film Antiferromagnets
Abstract
Thin film magnetoelectric antiferromagnets (AF) have potential to revolutionize spintronics due to their inherently magnetic-field stable magnetic order and high-frequency operation. To explore their application potential, it is necessary to understand modifications of the magnetic properties of AF thin films with respect to their bulk counterparts. We will outline our developments of zero-offset anomalous Hall magnetometry [1] applied to study the physics of insulating magnetoelectric Cr2O3 antiferromagnets. The analysis of the transport data is backed up by the real space imaging of AF domain patterns using NV microscopy [2,3]. Considering grainy morphology of thin films, we address questions regarding the change of the intergranular exchange [3], criticality behavior and switching of the order parameter [1] and physics of the readout signal in α-Cr2O3 interfaced with Pt [4]. The possibility to read-out the antiferromagnetic order parameter all-electrically enabled a new recording concept of antiferromagnetic magnetoelectric random access memory (AF-MERAM) [2].

Advances in compliant magnetic field sensorics
Abstract
The recent rapid advance and eagerness of portable consumer electronics stimulate the development of functional elements towards being lightweight, flexible, and wearable. Next generation flexible appliances aim to become fully autonomous and will require ultra-thin and flexible navigation modules, body tracking and relative position monitoring systems. Key building blocks of navigation and position tracking devices are magnetic field sensors.
Although there is a remarkable progress in the field of shapeable magnetoelectronics [1], until recently there was no technology available that can enable sensitivities to geomagnetic fields of 50 µT and, ultimately, magnetic fields of smaller than 1 µT in a mechanically compliant form factor. If available, these devices would contribute greatly to the realization of high-performance on-skin interactive electronics [2,3] and point of care applications [4,5].
Here, we will present technological platforms allowing to realize not only mechanically imperceptible electronic skins, which enable perception of the geomagnetic field (e-skin compasses) [6], but also enable sensitivities down to ultra-small fields of sub-50 nT [7]. We demonstrate that e-skin compasses allow humans to orient with respect to earth’s magnetic field ubiquitously. Furthermore, biomagnetic orientation enables novel interactive devices for virtual and augmented reality applications. We showcase this by realizing touchless control of virtual units in a game engine using omnidirectional magnetosensitive skins (fig. 1). This concept was further extended by demonstrating a compliant magnetic microelectromechanical platform (m-MEMS), which is able to transduce both tactile (via mechanical pressure) and touchless (via magnetic field) stimulations simultaneously and discriminate them in real time [8]. Those devices are crucial for interactive electronics, human-machine interfaces, but also for the realization of smart soft robotics with highly compliant integrated feedback system as well as in medicine for physicians and surgeons.

Flexible Electronics: From Interactive Smart Skins to In vivo Applications
Abstract
The portable consumer electronics necessitates functional elements to be lightweight, flexible, and wearable [1-4]. The unique possibility to adjust the shape of the devices offered by this alternative formulation of the electronics provides vast advantages over the conventional rigid devices particularly in medicine and consumer electronics. There is already a remarkable number of available flexible devices starting from interconnects, sensing elements towards complex platforms consisting of communication and diagnostic components.
We developed shapeable magnetoelectronics [5] – namely, flexible [6-8], printable [9,10], stretchable [11,12] and even imperceptible [13] magnetosensitive large area elements, which were completely missing in the family of flexible electronics. The unique mechanical properties open up new application potentials for smart skins, allowing to equip the recipient with a “sixth sense” providing new experiences in sensing and manipulating the objects of the surrounding us physical as well as digital world [7,13]. On the other hand, we realized self-assembled compact tubular microchannels based on strain engineering [14] with integrated passive sensory elements [15-17] and communication antenna devices [18] for on-chip and bio-medical applications, e.g. smart implants [19,20].
Combining these two research directions carried out at different length scales into a single truly interdisciplinary topic opens up the novel field of smart biomimetics [20]. In this respect, we demonstrated mechanically and electrically active compact biomimetic microelectronics, which can serve as a base for realization of novel regenerative neuronal cuff implants with unmatched functionalities. The biomimetic microelectronics can mechanically adapt to and impact the environment possessing the possibility to assess, adopt and communicate the environmental changes and even stimulate the environment electrically.
In my talk, these recent developments will be covered.

Curvilinear magnetism: geometrically curved ferro- and antiferromagnets
Abstract
The main origin of the chiral symmetry breaking in magnetic materials is associated with the intrinsic Dzaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI). At present, tailoring of DMI is done rather conventionally by optimizing materials, either doping a bulk single crystal or adjusting interface properties of thin films and multilayers. A viable alternative to the conventional material screening approach can be the exploration of the interplay between geometry and topology. The research field in magnetism, which is dealing with the study of the impact of geometrical curvature on magnetic responses of curved 1D wires and 2D shells is known as curvilinear magnetism [1]. The perspective of the development of curvilinear magnetism is outlined in the 2017 and 2020 Magnetism Roadmaps [2,3]. In this presentation, we will discuss on the recent achievements in the field and address the following topics:
A fully 3D approach to treat curvilinear effects in ferromagnetic nanowires and thin shells of arbitrary shape is established by Gaididei et al. back in 2014 [4] and was recently extended by Sheka et al. [5] to properly account for effects of non-locality due to the presence of long-range magnetostatic interaction. Volkov et al. has proven that the exchange-driven chiral effects in curvilinear ferromagnets are experimental observables [6] and can be used to realize nanostructures with tunable magnetochiral properties from standard magnetic materials.
In contrast to the intrinsic DMI, a concept of mesoscale Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction was put forth, which is a result of the interplay between the intrinsic (spin-orbit-driven) and extrinsic (curvature-driven) DMI terms [7]. The mesoscale DMI governs the magnetochiral properties of any curvilinear ferromagnetic nanosystem and depends both on the material and geometrical parameters. Its strength and orientation can be tailored by properly choosing the geometry, which allows stabilizing distinct magnetic chiral textures including skyrmion and skyrmionium states as well as skyrmion lattices [8-10]. Interestingly, skyrmion states can be formed in a material even without an intrinsic DMI [8,10].
Sheka et al. [5] discovered a novel non-local chiral symmetry breaking effect, which does not exist in planar magnets: it is essentially non-local and manifests itself even in static spin textures living in curvilinear magnetic nanoshells. To identify this new interaction, a generalized micromagnetic theory of curvilinear ferromagnets was constructed accounting for local and nonlocal effects. The curvature leads to the emergence of the new magnetostatic charge, the geometrical charge, determined by the local characteristics of the surface. This newcomer is responsible for the appearance of novel fundamental chiral symmetry breaking effect.
The field of curvilinear magnetism was recently extended towards curvilinear antiferromagnets. Pylypovskyi et al. [11] demonstrated that intrinsically achiral one-dimensional curvilinear antiferromagnet behaves as a chiral helimagnet with geometrically tunable DMI, orientation of the Neel vector and the helimagnetic phase transition. This positions curvilinear antiferromagnets as a novel platform for the realization of geometrically tunable chiral antiferromagnets for antiferromagnetic spinorbitronics.

Mechanically shapeable magnetic field sensor technologies
Abstract
Extending 2D structures into 3D space has become a general trend in multiple disciplines, including electronics, photonics, plasmonics and magnetics. This approach provides means to modify conventional or to launch novel functionalities by tailoring curvature and 3D shape. We study fundamentals of 3D curved magnetic thin films [1] and explore their application potential for flexible electronics, eMobility and health. For these applications, we developed a technology platform known as shapeable magnetoelectronics [2], which relies on a smart combination of ultrathin polymeric foils and metallic thin films featuring magnetoresistive and Hall effects. The mechanically compliant magnetic field sensors are designed and fabricated to address the specific needs of different applications including automotive (monitoring and control of electrical machines and drives) [3-5], biosensing technologies (flexible microfluidic devices) [6,7], consumer electronics (interactive printed electronics) [8,9], orientation in space [10] as well as virtual and augmented reality devices (motion tracking and touchless human-machine interaction) [10-13].
In this presentation, we will review the approaches to fabricate mechanically shapeable magnetic field sensors as well as their magnetoresistive and mechanical performance. On the application side, we will focus on the demonstration of the shapeable sensor devices for the emerging technological fields of smart skins, soft robotics and human-machine interfaces.

Curvilinear magnetism: From curvature induced magnetochirality to shapeable magnetoelectronics
Abstract
Non-collinear magnetic textures like spin spirals, chiral domain walls or skyrmions are typically stabilized by the intrinsic spin-orbit induced Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) [1]. Curvature effects emerged as a novel mean to design chiral magnetic responses relying on extrinsic parameters, i.e. geometrical curvature of thin films [2-4]. The lack of an inversion symmetry and the emergence of a curvature induced effective anisotropy and DMI are characteristic of curved surfaces, leading to curvature-driven magnetochiral effects and topologically induced magnetization patterning [5-7]. Vast majority of activities are dedicated to curved ferromagnets, where recent achievements include the development of the theory of curvilinear micromagnetism [3] and the first experimental confirmation of curvature-driven chiral effects stemming from the exchange interaction [4]. Only very recently, the focus was put also on curvilinear antiferromagnets. Pylypovskyi et al. [8] demonstrated that intrinsically achiral one-dimensional curvilinear antiferromagnets behave as a chiral helimagnet with geometrically tunable DMI and orientation of the Neel vector.
The application potential of 3D-shaped magnetic thin films is currently being explored as mechanically shapeable magnetic field sensors [9] for automotive applications, magnetoelectrics for memory devices, spin-wave filters, high-speed racetrack memory devices as well as on-skin interactive electronics [10-12].
The fundamentals as well as application relevant aspects of curvilinear ferro- and antiferromagnets will be covered in this presentation.

Implantable Highly Compliant Devices for Heating of Internal Organs
Abstract
Recent advances in the field of flexible electronics have opened the door for this technology to deeply impact the health care sector. The development of sensors and actuators which are lightweight and mechanically compliant enables them to be used for continuous health monitoring, on-site therapies or soft chirurgical ads. The key feature of these novel gadgets is their ability to provide targeted treatment and diagnosis without constraining the natural motion of the body or its internal organs.
Though many of these flexible diagnostic or therapeutic devices have been successfully demonstrated already, cancer treatment remains relatively unexplored in this field. In particular, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC, liver cancer) is one of the leading causes of cancer related mortalities worldwide with a constantly growing incidence. Numerous efforts have been devoted to the development of targeted cancer treatments which selectively destroy cancer cells and spare the healthy tissue.
We propose and develop an implantable, multifunctional and highly compliant device for targeted thermal treatment of cancerous tissues [1]. The device is fabricated on a 6-µm-thick polymeric foil, which seamlessly conforms to the soft liver tissue and allows for precisely controlled joule heating without on-site rigid parts. Its high mechanical compliance provides stable readings even upon severe mechanical deformations, enabling temperature accuracies of 0.1°C at bending radii of 2.5 mm, characteristic for mouse liver tissues. This heating device can treat tissue over the whole range of temperatures leading to fever, hyperthermia and ablation, while using a driving current as low as 10 mA. We demonstrate the electro-thermal and mechanical characterization of the devices and study various heat impact scenarios on normal and cancerous tissue using autochthonous murine HCC models.
Due to their high mechanical compliance, stability and thermal treatment versatility, the here developed devices can become a complement or alternative solution to radio frequency ablation (RFA) techniques for cancer treatment.

Extending 2D structures into 3D space has become a general trend in multiple disciplines including electronics, photonics, and magnetics. This approach provides means to enrich conventional or to launch novel functionalities by tailoring curvature and 3D shape. We study 3D curved magnetic thin films and nanowires where new fundamental effects emerge from the interplay of the geometry of an object and topology of a magnetic sub-system [1-3]. On the other hand, we explore the application potential of 3D magnetic architectures for the realization of mechanically shapeable magnetoelectronics [4] for automotive but also virtual and augmented reality appliances [5-7]. In this respect, we will present technological platforms allowing to realize not only mechanically imperceptible electronic skins, which enable perception of the geomagnetic field (e-skin compasses) [6], but also enable sensitivities down to ultra-small fields of sub-200 nT [8]. We demonstrate that e-skin compasses allow humans to orient with respect to earth’s magnetic field ubiquitously. Furthermore, biomagnetic orientation enables novel interactive devices for virtual and augmented reality applications. We showcase this by realizing touchless control of virtual units in a game engine using omnidirectional magnetosensitive skins. This concept was further extended by demonstrating a compliant magnetic microelectromechanical platform (m-MEMS), which is able to transduce both tactile (via mechanical pressure) and touchless (via magnetic field) stimulations simultaneously and discriminate them in real time [7]. Those devices are crucial for interactive electronics, human-machine interfaces, but also for the realization of smart soft robotics with highly compliant integrated feedback system as well as in medicine for physicians and surgeons. In this talk, recent fundamental and technological advancements in this novel research field will be reviewed.

Curvilinear Magnetism: Fundamentals and Applications
Abstract
There is one aspect, which is in common to the majority of fundamentally appealing and technologically relevant novel magnetic materials, namely their non-collinear magnetic textures like spin spirals, chiral domain walls or skyrmions [1]. These textures are typically driven by the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI). Recently, curvature effects emerged as a novel mean to design chiral magnetic properties by relying on extrinsic parameters, e.g. geometry of thin films [2]. In particular, novel effects occur when the magnetization is modulated by curvature leading to new magnetization configurations and is implications on the spin dynamics due to topological constraints. Advances in this novel field solely rely on the understanding of the fundamentals behind the modifications of magnetic responses of 3D-curved magnetic thin films [3-5] and nanowires [6,7]. The lack of an inversion symmetry and the emergence of a curvature induced effective anisotropy and DMI are characteristic of curved surfaces, leading to curvature-driven magnetochiral effects and topologically induced magnetization patterning [8,9]. The application potential of 3D-shaped objects is currently being explored as mechanically reshapeable magnetic field sensorics [10] for flexible interactive electronics [11-13], magnetic field sensors [14-18], curvilinear magnetoelectrics for memory devices [19], spin-wave filters and high-speed racetrack memory devices [20]. To advance in this research field, novel theoretical methods and fabrication/characterization techniques [21-24]. The fundamentals as well as application relevant aspects of curvilinear nanomagnets will be covered in this presentation.

Electronic materials with nanoscale curved geometries
Gentile, P.; Cuoco, M.; Ying, Z.; Volkov, O.; Vera-Marun, I. J.; Makarov, D.; Ortix, C.
Abstract
As the dimensions of a material shrink from an extended bulk solid to a nanoscale structure, size and quantum confinement effects become dominant, altering the properties of the material. Materials with nanoscale curved geometries, such as rolled-up nanomembranes and zigzag-shaped nanowires, have recently been found to exhibit a number of intriguing electronic and magnetic properties due to shape-driven modifications of charge motion or confinement effects. Local strain generated by curvature can also lead to changes in material properties due to electromechanical coupling. Here we review the development of electronic materials with nanoscale curved geometries. We examine the origin of shape-, confinement- and strain-induced effects and explore how to exploit these in electronic, spintronic and superconducting devices. We also consider the methods required to synthesize and characterize curvilinear nanostructures, and highlight key areas for the future development of curved electronics.

Magnetosensitive e-skins for interactive devices
Canon Bermudez, G. S.; Makarov, D.
Abstract
The growth of electronics and computer science in the last years has brought humans and machines closer than ever before. As this trend continues, new kinds of human-machine interactions are needed in a hyperconnected world. A key element for these interactions is flexible electronics, which attempts to seamlessly link living and artificial entities using electronic skins (e-skins). E-skins merge the functionality of standard electronics with the soft, stretchable, and biocompatible qualities of human skin or tissue. So far, the focus has been to reproduce the traditional functions associated with human skin, such as, temperature, pressure, and chemical detection. New developments have also introduced nonstandard sensing capabilities like magnetic field detection, to give birth to the field of magnetosensitive e-skins. Adding a supplementary information channel—an electronic sixth sense—could trigger new applications in the fields of cognitive psychology and human-machine interactions. Here, we review recent advances in magnetosensitive e-skins, which utilize the full interaction potential of the magnetic field vector to detect position, orientation, and mechanical stimuli. These magnetosensitive e-skins open exciting possibilities for touchless and gestural control in virtual and augmented reality, sensory substitution, and multimodal sensing; beyond the limitations of optics-based systems.

Local and nonlocal spin Seebeck effect in lateral Pt-Cr2O3-Pt devices at low temperatures
Muduli, P.; Schlitz, R.; Kosub, T.; Hübner, R.; Erbe, A.; Makarov, D.; Goennenwein, S. T. B.
Abstract
We have studied thermally driven magnon spin transport (spin Seebeck e_ect, SSE) in heterostructures of antiferromagnetic Cr2O3 and Pt at low temperatures. Monitoring the amplitude of the local and nonlocal SSE signals as a function of temperature, we found that both decrease with increasing temperature and disappear above 100 K and 20 K, respectively. Additionally, both SSE signals show a tendency to saturate at low temperatures. The nonlocal SSE signal decays exponentially for intermediate injector-detector separation, consistent with magnon spin current transport in the relaxation regime. We estimate the magnon relaxation length of our Cr2O3 films to be around 500 nm at 3 K. This short magnon relaxation length along with the strong temperature dependence of the SSE signal indicates that temperature-dependent inelastic magnon scattering processes play an important role in the intermediate range magnon transport. Our observation is relevant to low-dissipation antiferromagnetic magnon memory and logic devices involving thermal magnon generation and transport.

Evidence of the anomalous fluctuating magnetic state by pressure driven 4f valence change in EuNiGe3
Chen, K.; Luo, C.; Baudelet, F.; Maurya, A.; Thamizhavel, A.; Rößler, U. K.; Makarov, D.; Radu, F.
Abstract
In rare-earth compounds with valence fluctuation, the proximity of the 4f level to the Fermi energy leads to instabilities of the charge configuration and the magnetic moment. For Eubased valence fluctuation materials, the intra-atomic interactions, may play an important role to affect the magnetic ground state since the multielectron configurations 4f6 (Eu3+, L=3, S=3 and J=0) and 4f7 (Eu2+, L=0, S=7/2 and J=7/2) which are dominantly defining the macroscopic magnetic properties. Here, we provide direct experimental evidence for an induced magnetic polarization of the Eu3+ atomic shell with J=0, due to intra-atomic exchange and spin-orbital coupling interactions with Eu2+ atomic shell. By applying external pressure, a transition from antiferromagnetic to a fluctuating behavior in a EuNiGe3 single crystals is probed by element- and orbital-specific x-ray absorption spectroscopy and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism at Eu L2-edge. The enhanced mixing of Eu 4f and 5d electronic orbitals under pressure leads to a monotonic increase of the mean valence of Eu ions, with the onset of a thermally fluctuating state at 30 GPa. Magnetic polarization is observed for both valence states of Eu2+ and Eu3+ across the entire pressure range, with a clear occurrence of an electronic phase transition revealed by a linewidth change of the Eu3+ resonance at 30 GPa. The anomalous magnetic order is discussed in terms of a homogeneous intermediate valence state where frustrated Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya couplings are enhanced by the onset of spin-orbital interaction and engender a chiral spin-liquid-like precursor.

Micro-Bio-Chemo-Mechanical-Systems: Micromotors, Microfluidics and Nanozymes for Biomedical Applications

Abstract
Tetherless nano/-micromotors powered by chemical reactions and/or external fields generate motive forces and perform biomedical tasks, such as delivery of cargo payloads, minimally-invasive surgery, deactivation of pathogens and isolation of cancer cells. Micromotors can significantly expand short-range dynamic responses of passive biomedical micro-carriers, however, several major challenges, including biocompatibility, biodegradability, biochemical reactions as a fuel, deep tissue imaging methods must be addressed before micromotors can be translated into clinical uses. Nanozymes are nanomaterials that display enzyme-like characteristics (e.g., catalase, oxidase, peroxidase, superoxide dismutase) and represent a potentially revolutionary way to interconnect catalytic reactions, micromotors and biological systems. Today, a convergence of nanozymes and micromotors with microfluidics can lead to a paradigm shift in the fabrication of micro/-emulsions, drops, capsules and bubbles in reasonable quantities, encapsulation of sub-systems and shell-core engineering with desired tuneable biological, physical, chemical and mechanical properties. Additional functionalization methods, such as Layer-by-Layer assembly, can be used as a basis for multimodality of micro/-bubbles and capsules with a combination of ultrasound, optoacoustic, fluorescent, magnetic resonance imaging modalities, and desired surface properties. This review aims are to discuss recent achievements, challenges, and opportunities of micromotors, nanozymes, and microfluidics, which originated as separate disciplines and currently can be combined towards development of advanced Micro-Bio-Chemo-Mechanical-Systems for diverse bio-applications.

3D Rotation-Trackable and Differentiable Micromachines with Dimer-Type Structures for Dynamic Bioanalysis
Lin, G.; Liu, Y.; Huang, G.; Chen, Y.; Makarov, D.; Lin, J.; Quan, Z.; Jin, D.
Abstract
Utilizing the magnetic interactions between microparticle building blocks allows creating long‐range ordered structures and constructing smart multifunctional systems at different scales. The elaborate control over the inter‐particle magnetic coupling interaction is entailed to unlock new magnetoactuation functionalities. Herein, dimer‐type microstructures consisting of a pair of magnetic emulsions with tailorable dimension and magnetic coupling strength are fabricated using a microfluidic emulsion‐templated assembly approach. The magnetite nanoparticles dispersed in vinylbenzene monomers are partitioned into a pair of emulsions with conserved volume, which are wrapped by an aqueous hydrogel shell and finally polymerized to form discrete structures. Tunable synchronous–asynchronous rotation over 60 dB is unlocked in magnetic dimers, which is shown to be dependent on the magnetic moments induced. This leads to a new class of magnetic actuators for the parallelized assay of distinctive virus DNAs and the dynamic optical evaluation of 3D cell cultures. The work suggests a new perspective to design smart multifunctional microstructures and devices by exploring their natural variance in magnetic coupling.

Coding and decoding stray magnetic fields for multiplexing kinetic bioassay platform
Liu, Y.; Lin, G.; Chen, Y.; Mönch, J. I.; Makarov, D.; Walsh, B. J.; Jin, D.
Abstract
Polymer microspheres can be fluorescently-coded for multiplexing molecular analysis, but their usage has been limited by the fluorescent quenching and bleaching and crowded spectral domain with issues of cross-talks and background interference. Each bioassay step of mixing and separation of analytes and reagents require off-line particle handling procedures. Here, we report stray magnetic fields can code and decode a collection of hierarchically-assembled beads. By the microfluidic assembling of mesoscopic superparamagnetic cores, diverse and non-volatile stray magnetic field response can be built in the series of microscopic spheres, dumbbells, pears, chains and triangles. Remarkably, the set of stray magnetic field fingerprints are readily discerned by a compact giant magnetoresistance sensor for parallelised screening of multiple distinctive pathogenic DNAs. This opens up the magneto-multiplexing opportunity and could enable streamlined assays to incorporate magneto-mixing, washing, enrichment and separation of analytes.
This strategy therefore suggests a potential point-of-care testing solution for efficient kinetic assay.

L10 Ordered Thin Films for Spintronic and Permanent Magnet Applications
Hafarov, A.; Prokopenko, O.; Sidorenko, S.; Makarov, D.; Vladymyrskyi, I.
Abstract
Materials with strong perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) are fundamentally appealing and also relevant for numerous applications especially reconsidering their practical relevance for the enhancement of the energy product for thin film based permanent magnets and realization of energy efficient and miniaturized spintronic devices. In contrast to materials exhibiting PMA due to surface anisotropy, these applications would benefit from thin films where PMA stems from a strong uniaxial magnetocrystalline anisotropy (Ku). In this regard, magnetic thin films with chemically ordered L10 structure, representing alternation of A and B atomic planes along the c direction, are considered as most promising due to the high Ku values and finely tunable magnetic properties. Typical representatives of L10 structures are ordered binary phases, e.g. FePt, FePd, MnAl, MnGa, or NiFe, etc. phases. In the case when the c axes of the L10 structure is normal to the film plane, remarkably strong PMA could can be achieved. Another important property of L10 structures is their thermodynamic stability providing resistance of corresponding devices against thermal processing. Here, we will review the application prospects of L10 ordered magnetic thin films for spintronic and permanent magnet technologies.

Influence of a low-Z thin substrate on a microwire hard x-ray source driven by a picosecond laser pulse for point-projection x-ray radiography
Meng-Ting, L.; Guang-Yue, H.; Huang, L.; Jian, Z.
Abstract
In the point-projection hard x-ray radiography of dense matter, for example, an inertial confinement fusion implosion capsule at stagnation time, a picosecond laser driven gold microwire is used to produce a short pulse point, bremsstrahlung hard x-ray source. The microwire was held by a low-Z CH thin substrate commonly used to promote experimental performance. We explored the influence of the low-Z thin substrate on the microwire bremsstrahlung hard x-ray source via particle-in-cell and Monte Carlo simulations. It was shown that both of the microwires, with or without the low-Z thin substrate, could emit more intense hard x-ray radiation than the radiator buried in the equal-density substrate, which benefited from efficient electron recirculation. The freestanding microwire exhibited further enhanced electron recirculation compared to that with the low-Z thin substrate, while the increased hot electrons were only present for the energetic electrons of >1 MeV. Thus, the freestanding microwire could produce significantly more intense MeV gamma x-ray emission with respect to that with the substrate, but an ignorable increment was exhibited at the softer x-ray emission of 10–200 keV. These results provided valuable insights into the design of backlighter targets in point-projection x-ray radiography, such as a freestanding microwire being preferred in MeV gamma-ray radiography, while the microwire with the CH thin substrate could be used in the 10–200 keV hard x-ray Compton radiography of an implosion capsule.

Lessons Learned Developing Frameworks with SYCL
Abstract
alpaka is a header-only C++ library for developing portable high-performance programs. Much like SYCL, it aims to abstract away the differences between accelerator types and vendors. In 2019 an experimental SYCL backend was developed in order to target FPGAs. In my talk I will focus on the challenges I faced during the SYCL backend development as well as conceptual differences between SYCL and other heterogeneous programming platforms.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of a novel 18F-labeled radiotracer for PET imaging of the adenosine A2A receptor
Lai, T. H.; Toussaint, M.; Teodoro, R.; Dukic-Stefanovic, S.; Kranz, M.; Deuther-Conrad, W.; Moldovan, R.-P.; Brust, P.
Abstract
The adenosine A2A receptor (A2AR) has emerged as a potential non-dopaminergic target for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease and thus, the non-invasive imaging with positron emission tomography (PET) is of utmost importance to monitor the receptor expression and occupancy during an A2AR-tailored therapy. Aiming at the development of a PET radiotracer, we herein report the design of a series of novel fluorinated analogs based on the structure of the A2AR antagonist tozadenant, and the preclinical evaluation of [18F]TOZ1. Autoradiography proved A2AR-specific in vitro binding of [18F]TOZ1 to striatum of mouse and pig brain. Investigations of the metabolic stability in mice revealed parent fractions of more than 76% and 92% of total activity in plasma and brain samples, respectively. Dynamic PET/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies in mice revealed a brain uptake but no A2AR-specific in vivo binding.

Development of 18F-labeled radiotracers for PET imaging of the adenosine A2A receptor: Synthesis, radiolabeling and preliminary biological evaluation
Lai, T. H.; Schröder, S.; Toussaint, M.; Dukic-Stefanovic, S.; Kranz, M.; Ludwig, F.-A.; Fischer, S.; Steinbach, J.; Deuther-Conrad, W.; Brust, P.; Moldovan, R.-P.
Abstract
The adenosine A2A receptor (A2AR) represents a potential therapeutic target for neurodegenerative diseases. Aiming at the development of a positron emission tomography (PET) radiotracer to monitor changes of receptor density and/or occupancy during the A2AR-tailored therapy, we designed a library of fluorinated analogs based on a recently published lead compound. Among those, the highly affine 4-fluorobenzyl derivate (PPY1; Ki(hA2AR) = 5.3 nM) and the 2-fluorobenzyl derivate (PPY2; Ki(hA2AR) = 2.1 nM) were chosen for 18F-labeling via an alcohol-enhanced copper-mediated procedure starting from the corresponding boronic acid pinacol ester precursors. Investigations of the metabolic stability of [18F]PPY1 and [18F]PPY2 in CD-1 mice by radio-HPLC analysis revealed parent fractions of more than 76% of total activity in the brain. Specific binding of [18F]PPY2 on mice brain slices was demonstrated by in vitro autoradiography. In vivo PET/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies in CD-1 mice revealed a reasonable high initial brain uptake for both radiotracers, followed by a fast clearance.

Improved in vivo PET imaging of the adenosine A2A receptor in the brain using [18F]FLUDA, a deuterated radiotracer with high metabolic stability
Lai, T. H.; Toussaint, M.; Teodoro, R.; Dukic-Stefanovic, S.; Gündel, D.; Ludwig, F.-A.; Wenzel, B.; Schröder, S.; Sattler, B.; Moldovan, R.-P.; Falkenburger, B. H.; Sabri, O.; Deuther-Conrad, W.; Brust, P.
Abstract
Purpose: The adenosine A2A receptor has emerged as a therapeutic target for multiple diseases, and thus the non-invasive imaging of the expression or occupancy of the A2A receptor has potential to contribute to diagnosis and drug development. We aimed at the development of a metabolically stable A2A receptor radiotracer and report herein the preclinical evaluation of [18F]FLUDA, a deuterated isotopologue of [18F]FESCH.
Methods: [18F]FLUDA was synthesized by a two-step one-pot approach and evaluated in vitro by autoradiographic studies as well as in vivo by metabolism and dynamic PET/MRI studies in mice and piglets under baseline and blocking conditions. A single-dose toxicity study was performed in rats.
Results: [18F]FLUDA was obtained with a radiochemical yield of 19% and molar activities of 72 180 GBq/µmol. Autoradiography proved A2A receptor-specific accumulation of [18F]FLUDA in the striatum of mouse and pig brain. In vivo evaluation in mice revealed improved stability of [18F]FLUDA compared to [18F]FESCH, resulting in the absence of brain-penetrant radiometabolites. Furthermore, the radiometabolites detected in piglets are expected to have a low tendency for brain penetration. PET/MRI studies confirmed high specific binding of [18F]FLUDA towards striatal A2A receptor with a maximum specific-to-non-specific binding ratio in mice of 8.3. The toxicity study revealed no adverse effects of FLUDA up to 30 µg/kg, ~ 4000-fold the dose applied in human PET studies using [18F]FLUDA.
Conclusions: The new radiotracer [18F]FLUDA is suitable to detect the availability of the A2A receptor in the brain with high target specificity. It is regarded ready for human application.

Mirror twin boundaries in MoSe₂ monolayers as one dimensional nanotemplates for selective water adsorption
Li, J.; Joseph, T.; Ghorbani Asl, M.; Kolekar, S.; Krasheninnikov, A.; Batzill, M.
Abstract
Water adsorption on transition metal dichalcogenides and other 2D materials is generally governed by weak van der Waals interactions. This results in a hydrophobic character of the basal planes, and defects may play a significant role in water adsorption and water cluster nucleation. However, there is a lack of detailed experimental investigations on water adsorption on defective 2D materials. Here, by combining low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) experiments and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we study in that context the well-defined mirror twin boundary (MTB) networks separating mirror-grains in 2D MoSe2. These MTBs are dangling bond-free extended crystal modifications with metallic electronic states embedded in the 2D semiconducting matrix of MoSe2. Our DFT calculations indicate that molecular water also interacts similarly weak with these MTBs as with the defect-free basal plane of MoSe2. However, in low temperature STM experiments, nanoscopic water structures are observed that selectively decorate the MTB network. This localized adsorption of water is facilitated by functionalization of the MTBs by hydroxyls formed by dissociated water. Hydroxyls may form by dissociating of water at undercoordinated defects or adsorbing of radicals from the gas phase in the UHV chamber. Our DFT analysis indicates that the metallic MTBs adsorb these radicals much stronger than on the basal plane due to charge transfer from the metallic states into the molecular orbitals of the OH groups. Once the MTBs are functionalized with hydroxyls, molecular water can attach to them, forming water channels along the MTBs. This study demonstrates the role metallic defect states play in the adsorption of water even in the absence of unsaturated bonds that have been so far considered to be crucial for adsorption of hydroxyls or water.

Microwave-assisted spectroscopy of vacancy-related spin centers in hexagonal SiC
Shang, Z.; Berencen, Y.; Hollenbach, M.; Zhou, S.; Kraus, H.; Ohshima, T.; Astakhov, G.
Abstract
Optically active spin centers associated with atomic-scale defects in SiC are promising candidates for quantum technology owing to their outstanding optical and spin properties. Photoluminescence as a mature optical investigating tool is widely used for the identification of spin defects and exploration of their properties. However, in the case of spectrally overlapped contributions from different types of defects, the traditional photoluminescence measurement cannot be used to separately obtain their optical and vibrational properties, such as the local phonon energy and the Debye-Waller factor. Here, we apply spin resonant microwave-assisted spectroscopy to investigate the optical and vibrational properties of silicon vacancies in 6H-SiC and divacancies in 4H- and 6H-SiC. We isolate contributions from each type of defect, investigate their local vibrational modes and obtain the Debye-Waller factor. This work proves that microwave-assisted spectroscopy is a suitable tool for the investigation of optical and vibrational properties of a large variety of spin defects.

Crystallization of optically thick films of CoxFe80−xB20: Evolution of optical, magneto-optical, and structural properties
Sharma, A.; Hoffmann, M. A.; Matthes, P.; Hellwig, O.; Kowol, C.; Schulz, S. E.; Zahn, D. R. T.; Salvan, G.
Abstract
CoFeB alloys are highly relevant materials for spintronic applications. In this work, the crystallization of CoFeB alloys triggered by thermal annealing was investigated by x-ray diffraction techniques and scanningelectron microscopy, as well as spectroscopic ellipsometry and magneto-optical Kerr effect spectroscopy forannealing temperatures ranging from 300 to 600◦C. The transformation of∼100-nm-thick CoxFe(80−x)B20filmsfrom amorphous to polycrystalline was revealed by the sharpening of spectral features observed in optical andmagneto-optical dielectric functions spectra. The influence of B on the dielectric function was assessed bothexperimentally and by optical modeling. By analyzing the Drude component of the optical dielectric function,a consistent trend between the charge-carrier scattering time/resistivity and the annealing temperature wasobserved, in agreement with the electrical investigations by means of the four-point-probe method.

Manipulating the Energy Balance of Perpendicular-Anisotropy Synthetic Antiferromagnets by He+-Ion Irradiation
Koch, L.; Samad, F.; Lenz, M.; Hellwig, O.
Abstract
He+-ion irradiation enables controlled postdeposition modification of layered magnetic thin-film sys-tems. The degree of modification and its depth profile can be tuned by the irradiation dose and energy.Here, we use magnetometry and magnetic force microscopy to explore the impact of gentle He+-ion irra-diation on synthetic antiferromagnets, consisting of ferromagnetic Co/Pt multilayers with perpendicularmagnetic anisotropy, which are antiferromagnetically (AF) coupled via Ru interlayers. This system showsa rich variety of magnetic domain patterns due to the strong competition between different magnetic ener-gies. We show that AF interlayer exchange and perpendicular interface anisotropy energy are graduallyreduced by the ion irradiation while the demagnetization energy is mainly preserved, which thus results inmultiple successive magnetic-phase transitions.

Edge localization of spin waves in antidot multilayers with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy
Pan, S.; Mondal, S.; Zelent, M.; Szwierz, R.; Pal, S.; Hellwig, O.; Krawczyk, M.; Barman, A.
Abstract
We study the spin-wave dynamics in nanoscale antidot lattices based on Co/Pd multilayers with perpendicularmagnetic anisotropy. Using time-resolved magneto-optical Kerr effect measurements we demonstrate that thevariation of the antidot shape introduces significant change in the spin-wave spectra, especially in the lowerfrequency range. By employing micromagnetic simulations we show that additional peaks observed in themeasured spectra are related to narrow shell regions around the antidots, where in-plane domain structures areformed. This is because the magnetic anisotropy in these regions is reduced due to the Ga(+)ion irradiation duringthe focused ion beam milling process of the antidot fabrication. The results point at possibilities for exploitationof localized spin waves in out-of-plane magnetized thin films, which are easily tunable and suitable for magnonicapplications.

Modelling of Peripheral Components and Evaluation of a Heat-Integration Concept for a Power-to-Methanol System based on p-SOECs
Naidu Tanga, V.
Abstract
Due to the constantly growing utilization of wind and solar energy, the demand for technologies for temporal and spatial decoupling of energy provision and consumption is steadily increasing. The application of proton-conducting high temperature solid oxide electrolysis cells (p-SOECs) has been a main concern in recent research activities since they offer an environmentally friendly and efficient technique for the single step conversion of excess energy from renewables into pure hydrogen. As renewables occur intermittently, SOEC designs and all employed materials have to be capable of withstanding large electrical transients and therefore harsh operating conditions. Tubular SOEC designs are characterized by inherent advantages: They offer rapid start-up capabilities, a high resistance to thermal stresses and are usable for high-pressure application. Combined with suitable downstream syntheses units (e.g. methanol synthesis), innovative power-to-X systems can be provided for the production of valuable liquid or gaseous chemicals from H2 and anthropogenic CO2 as a chemical storage of excess energy. This work aims to modify the existing dynamic system model and extend it with regard to specific peripheral system components (compressors, evaporators, heat exchangers, pre-heaters, super-heaters and condensers). These peripheral components are ought to be modelled as simplified dynamic 0D black-box models and basic design specifications (dimensions, power demands, etc.) are to be determined with the given system parameters for the conditioning of all employed reactant, intermediate and product gas streams. Furthermore, the extended system model should be used to evaluate a given heat integration concept, which is fully utilizing all waste, intermediate and product gas streams of the power-to-methanol system. The overall system efficiency is to be determined for different load cases during intermittent operation.

UAS-based hyperspectral and magnetic mineral exploration targeting Ni-PGE mineralization on Northern Disko Island, West Greenland
Jackisch, R.; Zimmermann, R.; Heincke, B.; Karinen, A.; Salmirinne, H.; Pirtijärvi, M.; Lorenz, S.; Madriz Diaz, Y. C.; Gloaguen, R.
Abstract
Geologic mapping in arctic regions faces demanding challenges, from accessibility to weather, light and infrastructure conditions. Field expeditions need to cover substantial area, and mostly are supported by satellite and airborne data. While named methods offer large-scaled insights, they often lack the required resolution for precise ground investigations. The rise of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) as new state-of-the-art platform in geoscience provides the means needed to close that scale gap.
Fieldwork within the frame of the EIT project MULSEDRO focused on the Paleocene flood basalt province of Disko Island (West Greenland). On the example of the Qullissat area, we demonstrate how UAS can bring new insights into strategies for magmatic Ni-PGE exploration in the area. Mineralization is associated to basalt sills of the Asuk Member, emplaced locally in coal-bearing cretaceous sandstones. We conducted photogrammetric outcrop modelling, interpretation of orthoimagery, multi- and hyperspectral based lithological classification and analysis of magnetic data. While magnetics give the location, orientation and subsurface extension of the basaltic sills, spectral imaging, in particular with focus on the iron absorption feature, reveals mineral proxies due to sulphide weathering. A total of 216 line-km for magnetics and 18.5 km2 of multi- and hyperspectral data was covered.
First results show that integration of drone-borne spectroscopic and magnetic data highlights potential local mineralization. Based on our results, possible indications for mineralization are linear features in the first vertical derivative of the magnetic data and specific iron absorptions in the spectral data. Resulting maps are validated using handheld spectroscopy, ground magnetics, susceptibility measurements, combined with geochemistry and mineralogy of rock samples examined in the laboratory. Conclusively, the study solidifies UAS as highly valuable tool for exploration.

Science Blog: Game of drones – unmanned aerial vehicles in mineral exploration and geological mapping
Salmirinne, H.; Heincke, B.; Jackisch, R.; Saartenoja, A.
Abstract
Over the last ten years, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), commonly called drones, and related systems have rapidly developed. Everyman’s drones are available on store shelves to take photos and videos of holidays, one’s own house and garden, and for many other private reasons. With the general advances in robotics and digitalization, drones have also been increasingly utilized for various commercial applications. This trend can additionally be seen in geosciences. A key question arising for many geoscience applications is whether drones could be used as platforms to carry out more demanding surveys with remote sensing and geophysical sensors that have traditionally been mounted on aircraft or have been carried by workers on the ground. The answer is yes, drones can be used, although the integration of such sensors on drones is not straightforward. The methods themselves are typically well developed, but drones as an aspiring platform pose challenges for operating sensors and performing measurement procedures in proper ways. In particular, the need for small and lightweight sensors with a low power consumption for UAV platforms plays an important role, because they allow flexible low-cost measurements to be performed without a long preparation phase. Another aspect is that legislation, which varies from country to country, affects drone operations. Therefore, it is often difficult in practice for drone-operating companies to provide international services, and it is generally easier to obtain permission for small drones flying at low altitude only. To find a remedy for this, a common EU-wide regulation is currently in preparation. EU drone regulation (EU) 2019/947 defines the rules and procedures for different types of drone operations and is intended to be applied according to the transition period of the regulation on 31 December 2020.
In recent years, many groups all over the world – both in academia and industry – have worked on the integration of various sensor types on drones that are relevant for geological mapping and mineral exploration. Drone-borne survey systems are considered to be especially appropriate for small to medium-sized surveys that are smaller than those carried out with traditional aircraft, but larger than ground-based surveys. The goal of many companies is to offer drone-based services for this market niche.

Component Decomposition-Based Hyperspectral Resolution Enhancement for Mineral Mapping
Duan, P.; Lai, J.; Ghamisi, P.; Kang, X.; Jackisch, R.; Kang, J.; Gloaguen, R.
Abstract
Combining both spectral and spatial information with enhanced resolution provides not only elaborated qualitative information on surfacing mineralogy but also mineral interactions of abundance, mixture, and structure. This enhancement in the resolutions helps geomineralogic features such as small intrusions and mineralization become detectable. In this paper, we investigate the potential of the resolution enhancement of hyperspectral images (HSIs) with the guidance of RGB images for mineral mapping. In more detail, a novel resolution enhancement method is proposed based on component decomposition. Inspired by the principle of the intrinsic image decomposition (IID) model, the HSI is viewed as the combination of a reflectance component and an illumination component. Based on this idea, the proposed method is comprised of several steps. First, the RGB image is transformed into the luminance component, blue-difference and red-difference chroma components (YCbCr), and the luminance channel is considered as the illumination component of the HSI with an ideal high spatial resolution. Then, the reflectance component of the ideal HSI is estimated with the downsampled HSI image and the downsampled luminance channel. Finally, the HSI with high resolution can be reconstructed by utilizing the obtained illumination and the reflectance components. Experimental results verify that the fused results can successfully achieve mineral mapping, producing better results qualitatively and quantitatively over single sensor data.

Thermal treatment of materials on short time scales
Rebohle, L.; Prucnal, S.; Cherkouk, C.; Berencen, Y.; Skorupa, W.
Abstract
Important technological developments of our time such as the energy transition or digitalization require new materials and more efficient manufacturing processes. The processes of ultra-short time annealing such as flash lamp annealing (FLA) and laser annealing have the potential to make an important contribution. During such processes high temperatures are applied for very short times (nano- to milliseconds), so that only near surface regions of the material are exposed to the maximum temperature. Compared to conventional thermal treatments, ultra-short time annealing enables energy and process time savings, the use of temperature-sensitive substrates, and the synthesis of new materials in thermal non-equilibrium.
The talk is divided into two parts. After an introduction, the first part discusses the main features of FLA in comparison with other short time annealing techniques, namely rapid thermal annealing and laser annealing. Special focus is set on temperature and its determination, as this is a complex and challenging issue on short time scales. The second part deals with various examples of applying FLA to materials, ranging from semiconductor applications over printed electronics to energy materials for batteries.

Functionalized silicon substrates with stripe-patterned surface-near electrostatic forces for the self-organized, stable immobilization of biomolecules
Blaschke, D.; Pahlow, S.; Fremberg, T.; Weber, K.; Müller, A. D.; Kurz, S.; Spohn, J.; Dhandapani, V.; Rebohle, L.; Skorupa, I.; Schmidt, H.
Abstract
Silicon substrates with stripe-patterned surface-near electrostatic forces (SNEF) were prepared by local implantation of boron ions into n-type silicon wafers and of phosphorus ions into p-type silicon wafers in a stripe pattern of 12 µm periodicity. The dependence of SNEF on the concentration of implanted ions, post-annealing conditions, and generation of charge carriers under illumination was investigated by measuring the 1st and 2nd harmonics of the SNEF in the dark and under illumination using Kelvin probe force microscopy. The self-organized immobilization of biomolecules on silicon regions with positive charges occupying the interface states between the silicon and the native SiO2 has been demonstrated for the negatively charged single stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) proteins.

Data for: The structure in warm dense carbon
Vorberger, J.; Plageman, K.-U.; Redmer, R.
Abstract
The structure of the fluid carbon phase in the pressure region of the graphite, diamond, and BC8 solid phases is investigated. We find increasing coordination numbers with an increase in density. From zero to 30 GPa, the liquid shows a decrease of packing efficiency with increasing temperature. However, for higher pressures, the coordination number increases with increasing temperature. Up to 1.5 eV and independent of the pressure up to 1500 GPa, a double-peak structure in the ion structure factors exists, indicating persisting covalent bonds. Over the whole pressure range from zero to 3000 GPa, the fluid structure and properties are strongly determined by such covalent bonds.

Nanosensor-Based Real-Time Monitoring of Stress Biomarkers in Human Saliva Using a Portable Measurement System
Klinghammer, S.; Voitsekhivska, T.; Licciardello, N.; Kim, K.; Baek, C.-K.; Cho, H.; Wolter, K.-J.; Kirschbaum, C.; Baraban, L.; Cuniberti, G.
Abstract
Small molecules with no or little charge are considered to have minimal impact on signals measured by field effect transistor (FET) sensors. This fact typically excludes steroids from the family of analytes, detected by FETs. We present a portable multiplexed platform based on an array of nanowire sensors for label-free monitoring of daytime levels of the stress hormone cortisol in saliva samples, obtained from multiple donors. To achieve an effective quantification of the cortisol with FETs, we rely on the specific DNA aptamer sequences as receptors, bringing the complex “target-receptor” closer to the nanowire surface. Upon binding, cortisol induces conformational changes of negatively charged aptamers, wrapping it into a close proximity to the silicon nanowires, to efficiently modulate their surface potential. Thus, the sensors allow for a real-time assessment of the steroid biomarkers at low nanomolar concentration. The measurement platform is designed in a building-block concept, consisting of a modular measuring unit and a customizable biochip board, and operates using a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor-integrated multiplexer. The platform is capable of continuous and simultaneous measurement of samples from multiple patients. Cortisol levels detected with the presented platform agreed well with the results obtained with a commercial high-sensitivity immunoassay

Laser-driven ion accelerators for applications in radiobiology
Abstract
Laser-driven plasmas – generated in the interaction of a focused high power laser pulse with a solid surface – can sustain electrical field strengths of ~TV/m, allowing for compact and efficient particle acceleration of proton pulses with up to 100 MeV kinetic energies on ~µm spatial scales. The particle pulses feature a picosecond pulse duration at the source and extremely high pulse currents and dose, making them an ideal tool for laboratory-scale high dose-rate radiobiology research.
At the Draco Petawatt laser source, we have established and now successfully operate a source-to-sample just meter-scale setup for high dose-rate in vivo radiobiological studies based on a laser-driven proton source and a compact, versatile pulsed high-field magnetic beamline.
The setup development and preliminary experimental results will be presented, also intending to foster collaborations within HZDR for a wide range of high dose-rate applications.
Keywords: laser-driven proton acceleration; high dose-rate radiobiology

Deep point embedding for urban classification using ALS point clouds: A new perspective from local to global
Huang, R.; Xu, Y.; Hong, D.; Yao, W.; Ghamisi, P.; Stilla, U.
Abstract
Semantic interpretation of the 3D scene is one of the most challenging problems in point cloud processing, which also deems as an essential task in a wide variety of point cloud applications. The core task of semantic interpretation is semantic labeling, namely, obtaining a unique semantic label for each point in the point cloud. Despite several reported approaches, semantic labeling continues to be a challenge owing to the complexity of scenes, objects of various scales, and the non-homogeneity of unevenly distributed points. In this paper, we propose a novel method for obtaining semantic labels of airborne laser scanning (ALS) point clouds involving the embedding of local context information for each point with multi-scale deep learning, nonlinear manifold learning for feature dimension reduction, and global graph-based optimization for refining the classification results. Specifically, we address the tasks of learning discriminative features and global labeling smoothing. The key contribution of our study is threefold. First, a hierarchical data augmentation strategy is applied to enhance the learning of deep features based on the PointNet++ network and simultaneously eliminate the artifacts caused by division and sampling while dealing with large-scale datasets. Subsequently, the learned hierarchical deep features are globally optimized and embedded into a low-dimensional space with a nonlinear manifold-based joint learning method with the removal of redundant and disturbing information. Finally, a graph-structured optimization based on the Markov random fields algorithm is performed to achieve global optimization of the initial classification results that are obtained using the embedded deep features by constructing a weighted indirect graph and solving the optimization problem with graph-cuts. We conducted thorough experiments on ALS point cloud datasets to assess the performance of our framework. Results indicate that compared to other commonly used advanced classification methods, our method can achieve high classification accuracy. The overall accuracy (OA) of our approach on the ISPRS benchmark dataset can scale up to 83.2% for classifying nine semantic classes, thereby outperforming other compared point-based strategies. Additionally, we evaluated our framework on a selected portion of the AHN3 dataset, which provided OA up to 91.2%.

Texture-Aware Total Variation-Based Sun Glint Removal of Hyperspectral Images
Duan, P.; Lai, J.; Kang, J.; Kang, X.; Ghamisi, P.; Li, S.
Abstract
Sun glint in hyperspectral images (HSIs) leads to undesirable spectral interference, which severely affects subsequent image interpretation, such as environmental monitoring of coastal areas. Sun glint removal methods aim to recover a high quality image without sun glint from the original image. Most methods depend on an assumption that the near infrared band is strongly absorbed by water. However, this assumption is not always reliable because the infrared radiation in shallow or turbid water can be reflected back by the seabed or sediment, rather than being fully absorbed. Therefore, the reflected infrared radiation still contains sun glint and these methods cannot sufficiently remove sun glint from HSIs. To address this problem, a texture-aware total variation (TATV)-based method is proposed to remove sun glint from HSIs. The original HSI first is formulated as a desired clean image and a sun glint image. Then, in order to remove the sun glint, we propose a variational model where the different spectral characteristics of sun glint and other surrounding materials are considered. Specifically, we propose a texture-aware total variation regularized method to heavily penalize the variation of the sun glint areas. Experiments performed on simulated and real data sets demonstrate that our method can greatly outperform other state-of-the-art methods in removing sun glint.

Machine learning information fusion in Earth observation: A comprehensive review of methods, applications and data sources
Salcedo-Sanz, S.; Ghamisi, P.; Piles, M.; Werner, M.; Cuadra, L.; Moreno-Martínez, A.; Izquierdo-Verdiguier, E.; Muñoz-Marí, J.; Amirhosein, M.; Camps-Valls, G.
Abstract
This paper reviews the most important information fusion data-driven algorithms based on Machine Learning (ML) techniques for problems in Earth observation. Nowadays we observe and model the Earth with a wealth of observations, from a plethora of different sensors, measuring states, fluxes, processes and variables, at unprecedented spatial and temporal resolutions. Earth observation is well equipped with remote sensing systems, mounted on satellites and airborne platforms, but it also involves in-situ observations, numerical models and social media data streams, among other data sources. Data-driven approaches, and ML techniques in particular, are the natural choice to extract significant information from this data deluge. This paper produces a thorough review of the latest work on information fusion for Earth observation, with a practical intention, not only focusing on describing the most relevant previous works in the field, but also the most important Earth observation applications where ML information fusion has obtained significant results. We also review some of the most currently used data sets, models and sources for Earth observation problems, describing their importance and how to obtain the data when needed. Finally, we illustrate the application of ML data fusion with a representative set of case studies, as well as we discuss and outlook the near future of the field.

Deep Metric Learning Based on Scalable Neighborhood Components for Remote Sensing Scene Characterization
Kang, J.; Fernandez-Beltran, R.; Ye, Z.; Tong, X.; Ghamisi, P.; Plaza, A.
Abstract
With the development of convolutional neural networks (CNNs), the semantic understanding of remote sensing (RS) scenes has been significantly improved based on their prominent feature encoding capabilities. While many existing deep-learning models focus on designing different architectures, only a few works in the RS field have focused on investigating the performance of the learned feature embeddings and the associated metric space. In particular, two main loss functions have been exploited: the contrastive and the triplet loss. However, the straightforward application of these techniques to RS images may not be optimal in order to capture their neighborhood structures in the metric space due to the insufficient sampling of image pairs or triplets during the training stage and to the inherent semantic complexity of remotely sensed data. To solve these problems, we propose a new deep metric learning approach, which overcomes the limitation on the class discrimination by means of two different components: 1) scalable neighborhood component analysis (SNCA) that aims at discovering the neighborhood structure in the metric space and 2) the cross-entropy loss that aims at preserving the class discrimination capability based on the learned class prototypes. Moreover, in order to preserve feature consistency among all the minibatches during training, a novel optimization mechanism based on momentum update is introduced for minimizing the proposed loss. An extensive experimental comparison (using several state-of-the-art models and two different benchmark data sets) has been conducted to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method from different perspectives, including: 1) classification; 2) clustering; and 3) image retrieval. The related codes of this article will be made publicly available for reproducible research by the community.

An Efficient Deep Unsupervised Superresolution Model for Remote Sensing Images
Sheikholeslami, M. M.; Nadi, S.; Naeini, A. A.; Ghamisi, P.
Abstract
Superresolution (SR) has provided an effective solution to the increasing need for high-resolution images in remote sensing applications. Among various SR methods, deep learning-based SR (DLSR) has made a significant breakthrough. However, supervised DLSR methods require a considerable amount of training data, which is hardly available in the remote sensing field. To address this issue, some research works have recently proposed and revealed the capability of deep learning in unsupervised SR. This article presents an efficient unsupervised SR (EUSR) deep learning model using dense skip connections, which boosts the reconstruction performance in parallel with the reduction of computational burden. To do this, several blocks containing densely connected convolutional layers are implemented to increase the depth of the model. Some skip connections also concatenate feature maps of different blocks to enable better SR performance. Moreover, a bottle-neck block abstracts the feature maps in fewer feature maps to remarkably reduce the computational burden. According to our experiments, the proposed EUSR leads to better results than the state-of-the-art DLSR method in terms of reconstruction quality with less computational burden. Furthermore, results indicate that the EUSR is more robust than its rival in dealing with images of different classes and larger sizes.

COVID-19 Outbreak Prediction with Machine Learning
Ardabili, S. F.; Mosavi, A.; Ghamisi, P.; Ferdinand, F.; Varkonyi-Koczy, A. R.; Reuter, U.; Rabczuk, T.; Atkinson, P. M.
Abstract
Several outbreak prediction models for COVID-19 are being used by officials around the world to make informed decisions and enforce relevant control measures. Among the standard models for COVID-19 global pandemic prediction, simple epidemiological and statistical models have received more attention by authorities, and these models are popular in the media. Due to a high level of uncertainty and lack of essential data, standard models have shown low accuracy for long-term prediction. Although the literature includes several attempts to address this issue, the essential generalization and robustness abilities of existing models need to be improved. This paper presents a comparative analysis of machine learning and soft computing models to predict the COVID-19 outbreak as an alternative to susceptible–infected–recovered (SIR) and susceptible-exposed-infectious-removed (SEIR) models. Among a wide range of machine learning models investigated, two models showed promising results (i.e., multi-layered perceptron, MLP; and adaptive network-based fuzzy inference system, ANFIS). Based on the results reported here, and due to the highly complex nature of the COVID-19 outbreak and variation in its behavior across nations, this study suggests machine learning as an effective tool to model the outbreak. This paper provides an initial benchmarking to demonstrate the potential of machine learning for future research. This paper further suggests that a genuine novelty in outbreak prediction can be realized by integrating machine learning and SEIR models.

COVID-19 Pandemic Prediction for Hungary; A Hybrid Machine Learning Approach
Pinter, G.; Felde, I.; Mosavi, A.; Ghamisi, P.; Gloaguen, R.
Abstract
Several epidemiological models are being used around the world to project the number of infected individuals and the mortality rates of the COVID-19 outbreak. Advancing accurate prediction models is of utmost importance to take proper actions. Due to the lack of essential data and uncertainty, the epidemiological models have been challenged regarding the delivery of higher accuracy for long-term prediction. As an alternative to the susceptible-infected-resistant (SIR)-based models, this study proposes a hybrid machine learning approach to predict the COVID-19, and we exemplify its potential using data from Hungary. The hybrid machine learning methods of adaptive network-based fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) and multi-layered perceptron-imperialist competitive algorithm (MLP-ICA) are proposed to predict time series of infected individuals and mortality rate. The models predict that by late May, the outbreak and the total morality will drop substantially. The validation is performed for 9 days with promising results, which confirms the model accuracy. It is expected that the model maintains its accuracy as long as no significant interruption occurs. This paper provides an initial benchmarking to demonstrate the potential of machine learning for future research.

Remote Sensing Image Classification Using Subspace Sensor Fusion
Abstract
The amount of remote sensing and ancillary datasets captured by diverse airborne and spaceborne sensors has been tremendously increased, which opens up the possibility of utilizing multimodal datasets to improve the performance of processing approaches with respect to the application at hand. However, developing a generic framework with high generalization capability that can effectively fuse diverse datasets is a challenging task since the current approaches are usually only applicable to two specific sensors for data fusion. In this paper, we propose an accurate fusion-based technique called SubFus with capability to integrate diverse remote sensing data for land cover classification. Here, we assume that a high dimensional multisensor dataset can be represented fused features that live in a lower-dimensional space. The proposed classification methodology includes three main stages. First, spatial information is extracted by using spatial filters (i.e., morphology filters). Then, a novel low- rank minimization problem is proposed to represent the multisensor datasets in subspaces using fused features. The fused features in the lower-dimensional subspace are estimated using a novel iterative algorithm based on the alternative direction method of multipliers. Third, the final classification map is produced by applying a supervised spectral classifier (i.e., random forest) on the fused features. In the experiments, the proposed method is applied to a three-sensor (RGB, multispectral LiDAR, and hyperspectral images) dataset captured over the area of the University of Houston, the USA, and a two-sensor (hyperspectral and LiDAR) dataset captured over the city of Trento, Italy. The land-cover maps generated using SubFus are evaluated based on classification accuracies. Experimental results obtained by SubFus confirm considerable improvements in terms of classification accuracies compared with the other methods used in the experiments. The proposed fusion approach obtains 85.32% and 99.25% in terms of overall classification accuracy on the Houston (the training portion of the dataset distributed for the data fusion contest of 2018) and trento datasets, respectively.

Support Vector Machine Versus Random Forest for Remote Sensing Image Classification: A Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review
Sheykhmousa, M.; Mahdianpari, M.; Ghanbari, H.; Mohammadimanesh, F.; Ghamisi, P.; Homayouni, S.
Abstract
Several machine-learning algorithms have been proposed for remote sensing image classification during the past two decades. Among these machine learning algorithms, Random Forest (RF) and Support Vector Machines (SVM) have drawn attention to image classification in several remote sensing applications. This article reviews RF and SVM concepts relevant to remote sensing image classification and applies a meta-analysis of 251 peer-reviewed journal papers. A database with more than 40 quantitative and qualitative fields was constructed from these reviewed papers. The meta-analysis mainly focuses on 1) the analysis regarding the general characteristics of the studies, such as geographical distribution, frequency of the papers considering time, journals, application domains, and remote sensing software packages used in the case studies, and 2) a comparative analysis regarding the performances of RF and SVM classification against various parameters, such as data type, RS applications, spatial resolution, and the number of extracted features in the feature engineering step. The challenges, recommendations, and potential directions for future research are also discussed in detail. Moreover, a summary of the results is provided to aid researchers to customize their efforts in order to achieve the most accurate results based on their thematic applications.

Multiscale Densely-Connected Fusion Networks for Hyperspectral Images Classification
Xie, J.; He, N.; Fang, L.; Ghamisi, P.
Abstract
Convolutional neural network (CNN) has demonstrated to be a powerful tool for hyperspectral images (HSIs) classification. Previous CNN-based HSI classification methods only adopt the fixed-size patches to train the CNN model, and such single scale patches may not reflect the complex spatial structural information in the HSIs. In addition, although different layers of CNN can extract features of multiple scales, the traditional CNN model can only utilize features from the highest level for the classification task. These features, however, do not fully consider the strong complementary yet correlated information among different layers. To address these issues, in this paper, a multiscale densely-connected convolutional network (MS-DenseNet) framework is proposed to sufficiently exploit multiple scales information for the HSIs classification. Specifically, for each pixel, the MS-DenseNet, first, extracts its surrounding patches of multiple scales. These patches can separately constitute multiple scale training and testing samples. Within each specific scale sample, instead of using the forward convolutional layers, the MS-DenseNet adopts the dense blocks, which can connect each layer to other layers in a feed-forward fashion and thus can exploit the information among different layers for training and testing. Furthermore, since high correlations exist in patches of different scales, the MS-DenseNet introduces several dense blocks to fuse the multiscale information among different layers for the final HSI classification. Experimental results on several real HSIs demonstrate the superiority of the proposed MS-DenseNet over single scale-based CNN classification model and several well-known classification methods.

Fusion of Dual Spatial Information for Hyperspectral Image Classification
Duan, P.; Ghamisi, P.; Kang, X.; Rasti, B.; Li, S.; Gloaguen, R.
Abstract
The inclusion of spatial information into spectral classifiers for fine-resolution hyperspectral imagery has led to significant improvements in terms of classification performance. The task of spectral-spatial hyperspectral image classification has remained challenging because of high intraclass spectrum variability and low interclass spectral variability. This fact has made the extraction of spatial information highly active. In this work, a novel hyperspectral image classification framework using the fusion of dual spatial information is proposed, in which the dual spatial information is built by both exploiting pre-processing feature extraction and post-processing spatial optimization. In the feature extraction stage, an adaptive texture smoothing method is proposed to construct the structural profile (SP), which makes it possible to precisely extract discriminative features from hyperspectral images. The SP extraction method is used here for the first time in the remote sensing community. Then, the extracted SP is fed into a spectral classifier. In the spatial optimization stage, a pixel-level classifier is used to obtain the class probability followed by an extended random walker-based spatial optimization technique. Finally, a decision fusion rule is utilized to fuse the class probabilities obtained by the two different stages. Experiments performed on three data sets from different scenes illustrate that the proposed method can outperform other state-of-the-art classification techniques. In addition, the proposed feature extraction method, i.e., SP, can effectively improve the discrimination between different land covers.

Spatial Analysis of Seasonal Precipitation over Iran: Co-Variation with Climate Indices
Dehghani, M.; Salehi, S.; Mosavi, A.; Nabipour, N.; Shamshirband, S.; Ghamisi, P.
Abstract
Temporary changes in precipitation may lead to sustained and severe drought or massive floods in different parts of the world. Knowing the variation in precipitation can effectively help the water resources decision-makers in water resources management. Large-scale circulation drivers have a considerable impact on precipitation in different parts of the world. In this research, the impact of El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO), and North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) on seasonal precipitation over Iran was investigated. For this purpose, 103 synoptic stations with at least 30 years of data were utilized. The Spearman correlation coefficient between the indices in the previous 12 months with seasonal precipitation was calculated, and the meaningful correlations were extracted. Then, the month in which each of these indices has the highest correlation with seasonal precipitation was determined. Finally, the overall amount of increase or decrease in seasonal precipitation due to each of these indices was calculated. Results indicate the Southern Oscillation Index (SOI), NAO, and PDO have the most impact on seasonal precipitation, respectively. Additionally, these indices have the highest impact on the precipitation in winter, autumn, spring, and summer, respectively. SOI has a diverse impact on winter precipitation compared to the PDO and NAO, while in the other seasons, each index has its special impact on seasonal precipitation. Generally, all indices in different phases may decrease the seasonal precipitation up to 100%. However, the seasonal precipitation may increase more than 100% in different seasons due to the impact of these indices. The results of this study can be used effectively in water resources management and especially in dam operation.

Classification of Hyperspectral and LiDAR Data Using Coupled CNNs
Hang, R.; Li, Z.; Ghamisi, P.; Hong, D.; Xia, G.; Liu, Q.
Abstract
In this article, we propose an efficient and effective framework to fuse hyperspectral and light detection and ranging (LiDAR) data using two coupled convolutional neural networks (CNNs). One CNN is designed to learn spectral-spatial features from hyperspectral data, and the other one is used to capture the elevation information from LiDAR data. Both of them consist of three convolutional layers, and the last two convolutional layers are coupled together via a parameter-sharing strategy. In the fusion phase, feature-level and decision-level fusion methods are simultaneously used to integrate these heterogeneous features sufficiently. For the feature-level fusion, three different fusion strategies are evaluated, including the concatenation strategy, the maximization strategy, and the summation strategy. For the decision-level fusion, a weighted summation strategy is adopted, where the weights are determined by the classification accuracy of each output. The proposed model is evaluated on an urban data set acquired over Houston, USA, and a rural one captured over Trento, Italy. On the Houston data, our model can achieve a new record overall accuracy (OA) of 96.03%. On the Trento data, it achieves an OA of 99.12%. These results sufficiently certify the effectiveness of our proposed model.

Fusion of Multispectral LiDAR and Hyperspectral Imagery
Rasti, B.; Ghamisi, P.; Gloaguen, R.
Abstract
This paper presents a technique for the fusion of multispectral LiDAR and hyperspectral data. The proposed method is based on the fusion of the features of multispectral LiDAR and hyperspectral data projected in two different subspaces. First, the spatial features are extracted from both data using morphological filters. Then, the fused features are estimated by proposing a novel constraint penalized cost function. The estimated fused features are used for the purpose of mapping. The classification accuracies obtained by applying a random forest classifier on the fused data confirm considerable improvements compared with the other methods used in the experiments.

Spatial hazard assessment of the PM10 using machine learning models in Barcelona, Spain
Choubin, B.; Abdolshahnejad, M.; Moradi, E.; Querol, X.; Mosavi, A.; Shamshirband, S.; Ghamisi, P.
Abstract
Air pollution, and especially atmospheric particulate matter (PM), has a profound impact on human mortality and morbidity, environment, and ecological system. Accordingly, it is very relevant predicting air quality. Although the application of the machine learning (ML) models for predicting air quality parameters, such as PM concentrations, has been evaluated in previous studies, those on the spatial hazard modeling of them are very limited. Due to the high potential of the ML models, the spatial modeling of PM can help managers to identify the pollution hotspots. Accordingly, this study aims at developing new ML models, such as Random Forest (RF), Bagged Classification and Regression Trees (Bagged CART), and Mixture Discriminate Analysis (MDA) for the hazard prediction of PM10 (particles with a diameter less than 10 µm) in the Barcelona Province, Spain. According to the annual PM10 concentration in 75 stations, the healthy and unhealthy locations are determined, and a ratio 70/30 (53/22 stations) is applied for calibrating and validating the ML models to predict the most hazardous areas for PM10. In order to identify the influential variables of PM modeling, the simulated annealing (SA) feature selection method is used. Seven features, among the thirteen features, are selected as critical features. According to the results, all the three-machine learning (ML) models achieve an excellent performance (Accuracy > 87% and precision > 86%). However, the Bagged CART and RF models have the same performance and higher than the MDA model. Spatial hazard maps predicted by the three models indicate that the high hazardous areas are located in the middle of the Barcelona Province more than in the Barcelona’s Metropolitan Area.

Invariant Attribute Profiles: A Spatial-Frequency Joint Feature Extractor for Hyperspectral Image Classification
Hong, D.; Wu, X.; Ghamisi, P.; Chanussot, J.; Yokoya, N.; Zhu, X. X.
Abstract
So far, a large number of advanced techniques have been developed to enhance and extract the spatially semantic information in hyperspectral image processing and analysis. However, locally semantic change, such as scene composition, relative position between objects, spectral variability caused by illumination, atmospheric effects, and material mixture, has been less frequently investigated in modeling spatial information. Consequently, identifying the same materials from spatially different scenes or positions can be difficult. In this article, we propose a solution to address this issue by locally extracting invariant features from hyperspectral imagery (HSI) in both spatial and frequency domains, using a method called invariant attribute profiles (IAPs). IAPs extract the spatial invariant features by exploiting isotropic filter banks or convolutional kernels on HSI and spatial aggregation techniques (e.g., superpixel segmentation) in the Cartesian coordinate system. Furthermore, they model invariant behaviors (e.g., shift, rotation) by the means of a continuous histogram of oriented gradients constructed in a Fourier polar coordinate. This yields a combinatorial representation of spatial-frequency invariant features with application to HSI classification. Extensive experiments conducted on three promising hyperspectral data sets (Houston2013 and Houston2018) to demonstrate the superiority and effectiveness of the proposed IAP method in comparison with several state-of-the-art profile-related techniques. The codes will be available from the website: https://sites.google.com/view/danfeng-hong/data-code.

Multilevel Structure Extraction-Based Multi-Sensor Data Fusion
Duan, P.; Kang, X.; Ghamisi, P.; Liu, Y.
Abstract
Multi-sensor data on the same area provide complementary information, which is helpful for improving the discrimination capability of classifiers. In this work, a novel multilevel structure extraction method is proposed to fuse multi-sensor data. This method is comprised of three steps: First, multilevel structure extraction is constructed by cascading morphological profiles and structure features, and is utilized to extract spatial information from multiple original images. Then, a low-rank model is adopted to integrate the extracted spatial information. Finally, a spectral classifier is employed to calculate class probabilities, and a maximum posteriori estimation model is used to decide the final labels. Experiments tested on three datasets including rural and urban scenes validate that the proposed approach can produce promising performance with regard to both subjective and objective qualities.

High-Rankness Regularized Semi-Supervised Deep Metric Learning for Remote Sensing Imagery
Kang, J.; Fernández-Beltrán, R.; Ye, Z.; Tong, X.; Ghamisi, P.; Plaza, A.
Abstract
Deep metric learning has recently received special attention in the field of remote sensing (RS) scene characterization, owing to its prominent capabilities for modeling distances among RS images based on their semantic information. Most of the existing deep metric learning methods exploit pairwise and triplet losses to learn the feature embeddings with the preservation of semantic-similarity, which requires the construction of image pairs and triplets based on the supervised information (e.g., class labels). However, generating such semantic annotations becomes a completely unaffordable task in large-scale RS archives, which may eventually constrain the availability of sufficient training data for this kind of models. To address this issue, we reformulate the deep metric learning scheme in a semi-supervised manner to effectively characterize RS scenes. Specifically, we aim at learning metric spaces by utilizing the supervised information from a small number of labeled RS images and exploring the potential decision boundaries for massive sets of unlabeled aerial scenes. In order to reach this goal, a joint loss function, composed of a normalized softmax loss with margin and a high-rankness regularization term, is proposed, as well as its corresponding optimization algorithm. The conducted experiments (including different state-of-the-art methods and two benchmark RS archives) validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach for RS image classification, clustering and retrieval tasks. The codes of this paper are publicly available.

A Multi-Sensor Fusion Framework Based on Coupled Residual Convolutional Neural Networks
Li, H.; Ghamisi, P.; Rasti, B.; Wu, Z.; Shapiro, A.; Schultz, M.; Zipf, A.
Abstract
Multi-sensor remote sensing image classification has been considerably improved by deep learning feature extraction and classification networks. In this paper, we propose a novel multi-sensor fusion framework for the fusion of diverse remote sensing data sources. The novelty of this paper is grounded in three important design innovations: 1- a unique adaptation of the coupled residual networks to address multi-sensor data classification; 2- a smart auxiliary training via adjusting the loss function to address classifications with limited samples; and 3- a unique design of the residual blocks to reduce the computational complexity while preserving the discriminative characteristics of multi-sensor features. The proposed classification framework is evaluated using three different remote sensing datasets: the urban Houston university datasets (including Houston 2013 and the training portion of Houston 2018) and the rural Trento dataset. The proposed framework achieves high overall accuracies of 93.57%, 81.20%, and 98.81% on Houston 2013, the training portion of Houston 2018, and Trento datasets, respectively. Additionally, the experimental results demonstrate considerable improvements in classification accuracies compared with the existing state-of-the-art methods.

Creation of Gold Nanoparticles in ZnO by Ion Implantation–DFT and Experimental Studies
Cajzl, J.; Jeníčková, K.; Nekvindová, P.; Michalcová, A.; Veselý, M.; Macková, A.; Malinský, P.; Jágerová, A.; Mikšová, R.; Akhmadaliev, S.
Abstract
Three different crystallographic orientations of the wurtzite ZnO structure (labeled as c-plane, a-plane and m-plane) were implanted with Au + ions using various energies and fluences to form gold nanoparticles (GNPs). The ion implantation process was followed by annealing at 600°C in an oxygen atmosphere to decrease the number of unwanted defects and improve luminescence properties. With regard to our previous publications, the paper provides a summary of theoretical and experimental results, i.e., both DFT and FLUX simulations, as well as experimental results from TEM, HRTEM, RBS, RBS/C, Raman spectroscopy and photoluminescence. From the results, it follows that in the ZnO structure, implanted gold atoms are located in random interstitial positions—experimentally, the amount of interstitial gold atoms increased with increasing ion implantation fluence. During ion implantation and subsequent annealing, the metal clusters and nanoparticles with sizes from 2 to 20 nm were formed. The crystal structure of the resulting gold was not cubic (confirmed by diffraction patterns), but it had a hexagonal close-packed (hcp) arrangement. The ion implantation of gold leads to the creation of Zn and O interstitial defects and extended defects with distinct character in various crystallographic cuts of ZnO, where significant O-sublattice disordering occurred in m-plane ZnO.

In vitro and in vivo evaluation of fluorinated indanone derivatives as potential positron emission tomography agents for the imaging of monoamine oxidase B in the brain
Dukic-Stefanovic, S.; Lai, T. H.; Toussaint, M.; Clauß, O.; Jevtić, I. I.; Penjišević, J. Z.; Andrić, D.; Ludwig, F.-A.; Gündel, D.; Deuther-Conrad, W.; Kostić-Rajačić, S. V.; Brust, P.; Teodoro, R.
Abstract
Monoamine oxidases (MAOs) play a key role in the metabolism of major monoamine neurotransmitters. In particular, the upregulation of MAO-B in Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease and cancer augmented the development of selective MAO-B inhibitors for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, such as the anti-parkinsonian MAO-B irreversible binder L-deprenyl (Selegiline®). Herein we report on the synthesis of novel fluorinated indanone derivatives for PET imaging of MAO-B in the brain. Out of our series, the derivatives 6, 8, 9 and 13 are amongst the most affine and selective ligands for MAO-B reported so far. For the derivative 6-((3-fluorobenzyl)oxy)-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one (6) exhibiting an outstanding affinity (Ki MAO-B = 6 nM), an automated copper-mediated radiofluorination starting from the pinacol boronic ester 17 is described. An in vitro screening in different species revealed a MAO-B region-specific accumulation of [18F]6 in rats and piglets in comparison to L-[3H]deprenyl. The pre-clinical in vivo assessment of [18F]6 in mice demonstrated the potential of indanones to readily cross the blood-brain barrier. Nonetheless, parallel in vivo metabolism studies indicated the presence of blood-brain barrier metabolites, thus arguing for further structural modifications. With the matching analytical profiles of the radiometabolite analysis from the in vitro liver microsome studies and the in vivo evaluation, the structure’s elucidation of the blood-brain barrier penetrant radiometabolites is possible and will serve as basis for the development of new indanone derivatives suitable for the PET imaging of MAO-B.

Domain wall damping in ultrathin nanostripes with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction
Volkov, O.; Kronast, F.; Abert, C.; Oliveros Mata, E. S.; Kosub, T.; Makushko, P.; Erb, D.; Pylypovskyi, O.; Mawass, M.-A.; Sheka, D.; Zhou, S.; Faßbender, J.; Makarov, D.
Abstract
Asymmetrically sandwiched thin magnetic layers with perpendicular anisotropy and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) is the prospective material science platform for spin-orbitronic technologies that rely on the motion of chiral magnetic textures, like skyrmions or chiral domain walls (DWs). The dynamic performance of a DW-based racetracks is defined by the strength of DMI and the DW damping. The determination of the latter parameter is typically done based on technically challenging DW motion experiments. Here, we propose a method to access both parameters, DMI constant and DW damping, yet in static experiments by monitoring the tilt of magnetic DWs in nanostripes. We experimentally demonstrate that in perpendicularly magnetized //CrO x /Co/Pt stacks, DWs can be trapped on edge roughness in a metastable tilted state as a result of the DW dynamics driven by external magnetic field. The measured tilt can be correlated to the DMI strength and DW damping in a self-consistent way in the frame of a theoretical formalism based on the collective coordinate approach.

Depressants in scheelite flotation - Mechanism of sodium carbonate and acidified water glass and the application of process mineralogy
Abstract
The European Union classified tungsten as a Critical Raw Material already in 2011, due to its high economic importance and high supply risk. Tungsten occurs under two main mineral forms, scheelite (CaWO4) and wolframite ((Fe,Mn)WO4), with scheelite’s importance increasing as wolframite resources are progressively depleting. Interest in scheelite is growing fast, as publications show: 15 % of all publications on scheelite flotation since the 1950s were published in 2019. A polar salt type mineral, scheelite is semi-soluble and exhibits a negative charge, almost regardless of the flotation conditions. It is mostly hydrophilic but can easily be floated using chemical reagents, usually at a high pH of 9 to 10. Scheelite flotation has run into serious difficulties when it is associated to a carbonaceous gangue. Other calcium-bearing minerals, such as calcite (CaCO3), apatite (Ca-phosphate) and fluorite (CaF2) all exhibit similar flotation properties and are therefore classified as semi-soluble salt-type minerals. These minerals will tend to float better than scheelite under the same circumstances and not only increase reagent consumption but heavily contaminate the concentrate, making it harder and more expensive to process for the smelter. Several depressants can be used to remedy this problem, the most used one being sodium silicate. However, this reagent is imperfect and its effect can be improved by modifying it or by combining it with other depressants. As a consequence, the focus of this work is to understand the mechanism of two important depressants in scheelite flotation, sodium carbonate and acidified sodium silicate, and linking said mechanism to mineralogy. A third depressant, colloidal silica, is studied from a performance point of view.

Nanoscale mechanics of antiferromagnetic domain walls
Hedrich, N.; Wagner, K.; Pylypovskyi, O.; Shields, B. J.; Kosub, T.; Sheka, D.; Makarov, D.; Maletinsky, P.
Abstract
Antiferromagnets offer remarkable promise for future spintronics devices, where antiferromagnetic order is exploited to encode information. The control and understanding of antiferromagnetic domain walls (DWs) - the interfaces between domains with differing order parameter orientations - is a key ingredient for advancing such antiferromagnetic spintronics technologies. However, studies of the intrinsic mechanics of individual antiferromagnetic DWs remain elusive since they require sufficiently pure materials and suitable experimental approaches to address DWs on the nanoscale. Here we nucleate isolated, 180° DWs in a single-crystal of Cr2O3, a prototypical collinear magnetoelectric antiferromagnet, and study their interaction with topographic features fabricated on the sample. We demonstrate DW manipulation through the resulting, engineered energy landscape and show that the observed interaction is governed by the DW's elastic properties. Our results advance the understanding of DW mechanics in antiferromagnets and suggest a novel, topographically defined memory architecture based on antiferromagnetic DWs.

Cryogenic Liquid Jets for High Repetition Rate Discovery Science
Curry, C. B.; Schoenwaelder, C.; Goede, S.; Kim, J. B.; Rehwald, M.; Treffer, F.; Zeil, K.; Glenzer, S. H.; Gauthier, M.
Abstract
This protocol presents a detailed procedure for the operation of continuous, micron-sized cryogenic cylindrical and planar liquid jets. When operated as described here, the jet exhibits high laminarity and stability for centimeters. Successful operation of a cryogenic liquid jet in the Rayleigh regime requires a basic understanding of fluid dynamics and thermodynamics at cryogenic temperatures. Theoretical calculations and typical empirical values are provided as a guide to design a comparable system. This report identifies the importance of both cleanliness during cryogenic source assembly and stability of the cryogenic source temperature once liquefied. The system can be used for high repetition rate laser-driven proton acceleration, with an envisioned application in proton therapy. Other applications include laboratory astrophysics, materials science, and next-generation particle accelerators.

Comparison of experimental STEM conditions for fluctuation electron microscopy
Radic, D.; Hilke, S.; Peterlechner, M.; Posselt, M.; Wilde, G.; Bracht, H.
Abstract
Variable-resolution fluctuation electron microscopy (VR-FEM) data from measurements on amorphous silicon and PdNiP have been obtained at varying experimental conditions. Measurements have been conducted at identical total electron dose and with an identical electron dose normalized to the respective probe size. STEM probes of different sizes have been created by variation of the semi-convergence angle or by defocus. The results show that defocus yields a reduced normalized variance compared to data from probes created by convergence angle variation. Moreover, the trend of the normalized variance upon probe size variation differs between the two methods. Beam coherence, which affects FEM data, has been analyzed theoretically using geometrical optics on a multi-lens setup and linked to the illumination conditions. Fits to several experimental beam profiles support our geometrical optics theory regarding probe coherence. The normalized variance can be further optimized if one determines the optimal exposure time for the nanobeam diffraction patterns.

Does FLASH deplete Oxygen? Experimental Evaluation for Photons, Protons and Carbon Ions.
Jansen, J.; Knoll, J.; Beyreuther, E.; Pawelke, J.; Skuza, R.; Hanley, R.; Brons, S.; Pagliari, F.; Seco, J.
Abstract
Purpose: To investigate experimentally, if FLASH irradiation depletes oxygen within water for different radiation types such as photons, protons and carbon ions.
Methods: This study presents measurements of the oxygen consumption in sealed, 3D printed water phantoms during irradiation with X-rays, protons and carbon ions at varying dose rates up to 340Gy/s. The oxygen measurement was performed using an optical sensor allowing for non-invasive measurements.
Results: Oxygen consumption in water only depends on dose, dose-rate and linear energy transfer (LET) of the irradiation. The total amount of oxygen depleted per 10Gy was found to be 0.04 - 0.18% atm for 225 kV photons, 0.04 - 0.25% atm for 224 MeV protons and 0.09 - 0.17% atm for carbon ions. Consumption depends on dose-rate by an inverse power law and saturates for higher dose rates because of self-interactions of radicals. Higher dose rates yield lower oxygen consumption. No total depletion of oxygen was found for clinical doses.
Conclusions: FLASH irradiation does consume oxygen, but not enough to deplete all the oxygen present. For higher dose rates, less oxygen was consumed than at standard radiotherapy dose rates. No total depletion was found for any of the analyzed radiation types for 10Gy dose delivery using FLASH.

Implementation of the academic image processing pipeline ExploreASL in an outpatient center using IntelliSpace Discovery
Ganji, S.; Pinter, N.; Petr, J.; Ajtai, B.; Fritz, J.; Mechtler, L.; Husain, S.; Fischer, A.; Barkhof, F.; Mutsaerts, H.
Abstract
The use of standardized image processing pipelines is continuously increasing in radiological research with developments in computing power, image processing, and machine learning techniques. Early integration of academic processing methods into clinical research workflow would accelerate the translation of promising novel MRI techniques into the clinic. However, the integration of such tools is both resource and time consuming. While most of neurological imaging takes place in outpatient centers, resource and workflow limitations of such clinics do not allow for the application of advanced image analysis. Here, we present the integration the “ExploreASL” into the PACS-connected research platform IntelliSpace Discovery.

Treatment efficacy of asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis patients evaluated by clinically applicable hemodynamic MRI and cognitive testing
Kaczmarz, S.; Göttler, J.; Petr, J.; Sollmann, N.; Schmitzer, L.; Hock, A.; Hansen, M.; Mouridsen, K.; Zimmer, C.; Hyder, F.; Preibisch, C.
Abstract
Hemodynamic MRI is highly promising to improve treatment decisions in asymptomatic internal carotid artery stenosis (ICAS). However, treatment efficacy evaluations require clinically applicable techniques, such as dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) and resting-state BOLD-based evaluations of amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations (ALFF). We present data from 16 asymptomatic ICAS patients before and after treatment and 17 age-matched healthy controls measuring cerebral blood volume (CBV) and capillary transit-time heterogeneity (CTH) by DSC and ALFF with additional cognitive testing. We hypothesized recovery of hemodynamic impairments after revascularization. Our results confirmed this hypothesis for all parameters. Interestingly, at the same time cognitive function remained impaired

Measurement of intra- and extra-neurite perfusion by combining ASL with the NODDI DWI model
Asllani, I.; Plaindoux, A.; Petr, J.; Woods, J.; van Osch, M.; Cercignani, M.
Abstract
Intra- and extra-neurite perfusion in gray and white matter were estimated by applying a spatial linear regression algorithm on ASL images using the micro-structural anatomical information derived from the NODDI analysis of the DWI data. Baseline ASL images were acquired with 4 post-labeling delay (PLD) values in order to test the hypothesis of redistribution of ASL signal across the micro-compartments with increasing PLD. Motor activation was used to investigate the sensitivity of the method for detecting changes in perfusion at the micro-structural level.

The long road from invention to implementation a pan-European neuroradiological survey on quantitative MRI techniques in clinical practice
Keil, V.; Smits, M.; Thust, S.; Petr, J.; Solymosi, L.; Manfrini, E.
Abstract
This pan-European online survey study revealed that clinically working Neuroradiologists appreciate the additional diagnostic accuracy rendered by quantitative MRI techniques. However, the clinical implementation of many techniques is hampered by a lack of knowledge on how to acquire, post-process and interpret results of multiple quantitative MRI techniques including ASL, CEST/APT, IVIM and others. With exception of DSC and DWI in tumor imaging and stroke, the number of indications is also still limited especially regarding head/neck Radiology and neurodegenerative diseases.
