Frequency diverse array (FDA) differs from conventional array techniques in that it imposes an additional frequency offset (FO) across the array elements. The use of FO provides the FDA with the controllable degree of freedom in range…
We devise a scheme to characterize tunneling of an excess electron shared by a pair of tunnel-coupled dangling bonds on a silicon surface -- effectively a two-level system. Theoretical estimates show that the tunneling should be highly…
