• ][22] for drastically reducing noise and directional amplifiers [23][24]. The group of proposed applications is even larger and hosts ideas such as quantum circulators [23][24], Ising model simulators [25], and improved gravity wave detection experiments [8]. All these techniques can be migrated to AFM

• simulations were carried out to compute the effective charge carrier mobility and recombination rate. Firstly, the internal morphology in active layers was generated through a simulated annealing method [27]. In the simulated annealing method, the Ising model is adopted to generate the morphology with desired

• understand most features observed so far in commensurate (2√3 × 2√3)R30° superstructures of C60 on Au(111) surfaces and that may be adopted also to other metal surfaces. Ising model One point of discussion is the existence of 6:6-top C60 molecules in the disordered R30° superstructure despite the fact that

• molecule in the centre (pinwheel) can be observed. Most interestingly, this distribution of dim and bright C60, like often observed for disordered R30° structures, is typical for the disordered ground state of frustrated Ising systems on a triangular lattice [31][32][33]. A two-dimensional Ising model can

• (albeit much weaker) inter-chain coupling is present as well. To calculate the coupling interactions we have mapped the DFT energies onto a 1D Ising model: with Si being the spin operator projected along the z-direction and Ji,j being the coupling interactions. Two coupling interactions are taken into
