In many antiferromagnetic, quasi-two-dimensional materials, doping with holes leads to "stripe" phases, in which the holes congregate along antiphase domain walls in the otherwise antiferromagnetic texture. Using a suitably parametrized…
The spectrum of electromagnetic waves in periodic linear structures, such as periodic waveguides or chains of microelements i.e. spheres, cavities, exhibit the sequence of stop bands for propagating waves. Breaking the translational…
