Orbital-coherence memory in electrical transport and its self-consistent Maxwell response
Pengfei Zhu
An internal electronic coherence changes electrical transport only when it feeds back on the physical current. We develop a reduced description of this feedback and distinguish its…
Quantitative Infrared Thermographic Assessment of Hand Cooling Dynamics During Controlled Contact with Metal Plates
Pengfei Zhu, Hai Zhang, Stefano Sfarra +4
This study investigates the spatiotemporal thermal response of human hands during controlled contact cooling using short wave infrared (SWIR), mid wave infrared (MWIR), and long wa…
Structured Illumination Scanning Thermography (SISTER)
Pengfei Zhu, Julien Lecompagnon, Philipp Daniel Hirsch +1
Conventional non-invasive photothermal imaging techniques are fundamentally constrained by the diffusive nature of heat transport, which causes severe energy dissipation during sub…
Generalized Virtual-Wave Theory for Photothermal Coherence Tomography under Arbitrary Excitation Toward Non-Contact Industrial Inspection of Composite Materials
Pengfei Zhu, Julien Lecompagnon, Philipp Daniel Hirsch +1
Photothermal imaging is a powerful noncontact and nondestructive technique for subsurface inspection of composite materials, yet its performance is fundamentally limited by the dif…
Analytic Continuation Between Real- and Imaginary-Time Quantum Dynamics and the Fundamental Instability of Inverse Reconstruction
Pengfei Zhu
We develop a unified spectral-semigroup framework that connects real-time and imaginary-time quantum dynamics through analytic continuation. Within this formulation, evolution is e…
Generalized virtual wave reconstruction for vibrothermography: Overcoming the wavefront-free behavior and quantification challenges in the diffusion-wave field
Pengfei Zhu, Julien Lecompagnon, Mathias Ziegler +2
Wavefront-free behavior and the resulting quantification difficulties are intrinsic limitations of vibrothermography due to the diffusive nature of thermal fields. This work propos…
