    Abstract A distributed electrical transmission network with dispersive elements that consists of a large number of identical unit cells is considered. Using the reductive perturbation method in the semidiscrete limit, we show that the voltage for the network is described by a nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation with an external linear potential. Using such a NLS equation, the propagation of the first- and second-order rogue waves in the system is predicted and analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively. The rogue waves are expected to propagate for the bandwidth frequencies where the network may exhibit modulational instability. The effects of relevant network parameters on the characteristics of the rogue wave parameters are investigated. We show how to manipulate the relevant network parameters as well as the propagating frequency either to amplify the propagation of the rogue waves through the network, or to prevent rogue waves from being amplified in the network under consideration.

    Abstract In this paper, we consider a Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) equation with a time-dependent nonlinearity and a spatiotemporal complex linear term which describes the dynamics of matter-wave solitons in Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) with time-dependent interatomic interactions in a parabolic potential in the presence of feeding or loss of atoms. We establish the integrability conditions under which analytical solutions describing the modulational instability and the propagation of both bright and dark solitary waves on a continuous wave background are obtained. The obtained integrability conditions also appear as the conditions under which the solitary waves of the BECs can be managed by controlling the functional gain or loss parameter. For specific BECs, the dynamics of bright and dark solitons are investigated analytically through the found exact solutions of the GP equation. Our results show that under the integrability conditions, the gain or loss parameter of the GP equation can be used to manage the motion of both bright and dark solitons. We show that for BECs with loss (gain) of atoms, the bright and dark solitons during their propagation have a compression (broadening) in their width. Furthermore, under a safe range of parameters and under the integrability conditions, it is possible to squeeze a bright soliton of BECs with loss of atoms into the assumed peak matter density, which can provide an experimental tool for investigating the range of validity of the 1D GP equation. Our results also reveal that under the conditions of the solitary wave management, neither the injection or the ejection of atoms from the condensate affects the soliton peak during its propagation.

    Abstract A modified lossless nonlinear Noguchi transmission network with second-neighbor interactions is considered. In the semidiscrete limit, we apply the reductive perturbation method and show that the dynamics of modulated waves propagating through the network are governed by an NLS equation with linear external potential. Classes of exact solitonic solutions of this network equation are derived, proving possible transmission of both bright and dark solitonlike pulses through the network. The effects of both the coupling second-neighbor parameter L_{3} and the strength λ of the linear potential on the dynamics of modulated waves through the network are investigated. One of the main results of our work is that with the introduction of the second neighbors in the network, two solitary signals, either two bright solitary signals or one bright and one dark solitary signal, may simultaneously propagate at the same frequency through the network.

    Abstract Plasmonic sensing that enables the detection of minute events, when the incident light field interacts with the nanostructure interface, has been widely applied to optical and biological detection. Implementation of the controllable plasmonic double Fano resonances (DFRs) offers a flexible and efficient way for plasmonic sensing. However, plasmonic sensing and digital metasurface induced by tailorable plasmonic DFRs require further study. In this work, we numerically and theoretically investigate the near-infrared plasmonic DFRs for plasmonic sensing and digital metasurface in a hybrid metasurface with concentric ϕ-shaped-hole and circular-ring-aperture unit cells. We show that a plasmonic Fano resonance, resulting from the interaction between a narrow and a wide effective dipolar modes, can be realized in the ϕ-shaped hybrid metasurface. In particular, we demonstrate that the tailoring plasmonic DFRs with distinct mechanisms of actions can be accomplished in three different ϕ-shaped hybrid metasurfaces. Moreover, the resonance mode-broadening and mode-shifting plasmonic sensing can be fulfilled by modulating the polarization orientation and the related geometric parameters of the unit cells in the near-infrared waveband, respectively. In addition, the plasmonic switch with a high ON/OFF ratio can not only be achieved but also be exploited to establish a single-bit digital metasurface, even empower to implement two- and three-bit digital metasurface characterized by the plasmonic DFRs in the telecom L-band. Our results offer a new perspective toward realizing polarization-sensitive optical sensing, passive optical switches, and programmable metasurface devices, which also broaden the landscape of subwavelength nanostructures for biosensors and optical communications.

    Abstract We investigate the photovoltaic effect of atomtronics induced by an artificial gauge field in four optical potentials. Under an effective magnetic flux, the atom occupation probability would be polarized in a double-dot system, which gives rise to an atomic current. The relation between the atomic current and magnetic flux behaves like the current-phase property in a Josephson junction. A neutral particle photovoltaic cell is well defined by the atomic opened system that has an effective voltage and two different poles corresponding to two internal states of atomtronics. The atom flow is controllable by tuning the direction of incident light and other parameters. The detection of the atomic current intensity is available through an optical emission spectrum in experiments.

    Abstract Insects prevent uncontrolled penetration of water and xenobiotics by producing an impermeable cuticle. The major component of the cuticle is chitin that adopts a crystalline structure thereby contributing to cuticle stability. Our understanding of the contribution of chitin to the cuticle barrier function is limited. Here, we studied the role of the DOMON domain protein Knickkopf (LmKnk) that is involved in chitin organization and cuticle permeability in the migratory locust Locusta migratoria. We show that LmKnk localizes to the chitin layer in the newly produced cuticle. Injection of double‐stranded RNA targeting LmKnk (dsLmKnk) in locust nymphs caused failure of moulting to the next stage. Histological experiments revealed that apolysis, i.e., the detachment of the old cuticle from the body surface, was normal; however, the newly synthesized cuticle was thinner than the cuticle of the control insects. Indeed, chitin content dropped after suppression of LmKnk expression. As seen by transmission electron microscopy, crystalline chitin organization was lost in dsLmKnk‐treated insects. In addition, the structure of pore canals, which are lipid transporting routes in the cuticle, was abnormal. Consistently, their content was reduced and, probably by consequence, lipid deposition on the cuticle was decreased after injection of dsLmKnk. Suppression of LmKnk transcript levels rendered L. migratoria more susceptible to each of four selected insecticides including malathion, chlorpyrifos, carbaryl and deltamethrin. Overall, our data show that LmKnk is needed for correct chitin amounts and organization, and their changes ultimately affect cuticular permeability in L. migratoria.

    Abstract A lossless nonlinear LC transmission network is considered. With the use of the reductive perturbation method in the semidiscrete limit, we show that the dynamics of matter-wave solitons in the network can be modeled by a one-dimensional Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) equation with a time-dependent linear potential in the presence of a chemical potential. An explicit expression for the growth rate of a purely growing modulational instability (MI) is presented and analyzed. We find that the potential parameter of the GP equation of the system does not affect the different regions of the MI. Neglecting the chemical potential in the GP equation, we derive exact analytical solutions which describe the propagation of both bright and dark solitary waves on continuous-wave (cw) backgrounds. Using the found exact analytical solutions of the GP equation, we investigate numerically the transmission of both bright and dark solitary voltage signals in the network. Our numerical studies show that the amplitude of a bright solitary voltage signal and the depth of a dark solitary voltage signal as well as their width, their motion, and their behavior depend on (i) the propagation frequencies, (ii) the potential parameter, and (iii) the amplitude of the cw background. The GP equation derived in this paper with a time-dependent linear potential opens up different ideas that may be of considerable theoretical interest for the management of matter-wave solitons in nonlinear LC transmission networks.
