Fast Tendermint: Speeding Up a Foundational Consensus Protocol
Preston Vander Vos, Daniel Cason
Tendermint is among the most widely studied and deployed Byzantine fault-tolerant (BFT) consensus protocols, owing in part to its native leader-rotation mechanism that subsumes com…
A Single-Trace Surface Integral Equation Solver for Simulation of Open Bianisotropic Metasurfaces Described by Generalized Sheet Transition Conditions
Sebastian Celis Sierra, Junze Shao, Ran Zhao +3
A single-trace surface integral equation (SIE) solver incorporating generalized sheet transition conditions (GSTCs) is presented for the simulation of three-dimensional (3D) open b…
A Thin Sheet Volume Integral Equation Solver for Simulation of Bianisotropic Metasurfaces
Sebastian Celis Sierra, Meruyert Khamitova, Ran Zhao +2
A thin-sheet (TS) volume integral equation (VIE) formulation incorporating generalized sheet transition conditions (GSTCs) is presented for the simulation of three-dimensional (3D)…
Calculation of Photocarrier Generation from Optical Absorption for Time-domain Simulation of Optoelectronic Devices
Liang Chen, Ming Dong, Ran Zhao +1
Photocarrier generation rate in optoelectronic materials is often calculated using the Poynting vector in the frequency domain. However, this approach is not accurate in time-domai…
