Frequency mapping in dynamic light emission with wavelet transform
TL;DR: A new methodology to draw frequency mapping of dynamic light emission acquisition is reported, fully automated and based on wavelet transform and autocorrelation function that can help to localize abnormal emission activity and give some perspectives on automatic databases comparison.

Spin-dependent shot noise in diluted-magnetic-semiconductor/ semiconductor heterostructures
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the shot noise properties in the diluted-magnetic-semiconductor and semiconductor heterostructures, where the sp-d exchange interaction gives rise to a giant spin splitting when an external magnetic field is applied along the growth direction of the heterostructure.

Transition from metallic to tunneling regimes in superconducting microconstrictions: Excess current, charge imbalance, and supercurrent conversion
TL;DR: In this paper, the Bogoliubov equations were used to model the transmission and reflection of particles at the tunnel junction of normal-superconducting micro-constriction contacts, and a simple theory for the $I\ensuremath{-}V$ curves of normal superconducting contacts was proposed to describe the crossover from metallic to tunnel junction behavior.
