Linearly polarized (LP) and unpolarized (UP) light are racemic entities since they can be described as superposition of opposite circularly polarized (CP) components of equal amplitude. As a consequence they do not carry spin angular momentum. Chiral resolution of a racemate, i.e. separation of their chiral components…

Dielectrics by atomic layer deposition (ALD) are sought after for fabricating AlGaN/GaN based metal oxide semiconductor heterojunction field effect transistors (MOS-HFETs) for power applications. The ideal gate dielectric is required to suppress gate leakage and minimize threshold voltage ( V T ) instability by hostin…

Maxwell's fish eye is predicted to image with a resolution not limited by the wavelength of light. However, interactions between sources and drains may ruin the subwavelength imaging capabilities of this and similar absolute optical instruments. Nevertheless, as we show in this paper, at resonance frequencies of the d…

We report on the fabrication of novel InGaN nanowires (NWs) with improved crystalline quality and high radiative efficiency for applications as nanoscale visible light emitters. Pristine InGaN NWs grown under a uniform In/Ga molar flow ratio (UIF) exhibited multi-peak white-like emission and a high density of dislocat…

The influence of hydrogen addition in small quantities to biogas was studied in a spark ignition (SI) stationary engine at different spark timings at fixed equivalence ratio of 0.92. At this condition the engine operated with good thermal efficiency in the neat biogas mode. A single-cylinder diesel engine modified to…

It is generally accepted that harvesting and storing of seed cotton above a moisture content of 12% prior to ginning will compromise fiber quality. This advice stems from research conducted on harvesting seed cotton with the conventional basket and separate module building system, which produces large rectangular modu…

Abstract To construct a superjunction structure consisting of p/n columns, narrow stripe-shaped trenches (∼1.5 µm wide and ∼4.7 µm deep) preformed on an n+ 4H-SiC substrate were filled by the hot-wall CVD method using a conventional gas reaction system, SiH4:C3H8:H2. The influences of growth pressure on the coverage d…

Typically point defects are modeled by adding, removing, or exchanging at most few atoms around a given lattice site. We demonstrate the possibility of formation of extended antisite defects that involve complex, nonlocal atomic rearrangements, which cannot be captured within a simple point defect model. We illustrate…
