Single sized PbS nanocrystals are selectively deposited from the gas phase onto photoresist patterned substrates at atmospheric pressure, forming patterned nanocrystal thin films. Selective deposition is obtained by means of electrostatic control of the charged nanocrystals in the gas phase. The nanocrystal deposition…

Visible light emission has been obtained at room temperature by photoluminescence (PL) and cathodoluminescence (CL) from Tb-doped B2N2CO thin films prepared by radio-frequency magnetron sputtering. The films were deposited by sputtering TbBn (n=4, 6, 12, 25, and 50) targets in an atmosphere of Ar and N2 gas mixture. T…

The thermoluminescence (TL) glow curves of irradiated annealed and non-annealed synthetic beta-quartz (Li0.73Al0.73Si1.27O4) synthesised using the ceramic method have been studied. Annealed samples (1200 degrees C for 12 h) exhibit some changes of shape and intensity in the TL glow curves when compared to non-annealed…

The dielectric spectrum of an antiferroelectric liquid crystal is predicted by finding approximate analytic solutions to the Landau–Ginzburg equation describing its time dependent behavior. Two collective modes are predicted: (i) a low frequency mode that is caused by an in-phase rotation of the directors in adjacent…

The effects of different types of fibers on the physical and mechanical behavior of isotactic polypropylene (iPP) are reported. In particular, the flow behavior, mechanical properties (tensile, flexural and impact resistance) and morphology are examined. It has been found that all the fibers studied behave as effectiv…

Shape memory alloys (SMAs) have demonstrated the potential for various smart structure applications. SMAs undergo a reversible phase transformation from martensite to austenite as temperature increases. This transformation leads to shape recovery and associated recovery strains. If SMA actuators are embedded off the n…

Various kinds of magneto-optical properties are investigated in rare earth orthochromites. From an analysis of Cr3+ exciton absorption in RCrO3 (R=Tb, Dy, and Ho), it is unferred that these compounds exhibit an anomalous spin-reorientation in a magnetic field along the b axis, where the weak ferromagnetic moment of th…

The theoretical permeability of multilayered nonwoven fabrics was studied using a modified Kozeny equation. The Kozeny equation is based on the concept of a hydraulic radius, i.e., a characteristic length parameter. It is limited to structures with porosities less than 0.94. The structures used in this research are in…

We consider the inverse Landau-Zener problem which consists in finding the energy sweep functions W ( t ) ≡ ε 1 ( t ) − ε 2 ( t ) resulting in the required time dependences of the level populations for a two-level system crossing the resonance one or more times during the sweep. We find sweep functions of particular f…
