The graphite structure is self-consistently calculated by use of the all electron Modified Augmented Plane Wave (MAPW) scheme with lattice constants considerably enlarged above the experimental value of graphite. Overall, the band structures of the series are found to be quite similar: the energy levels of the highly…

In this paper we report a new set of accurate measurements of guided mode resonances coupled in a negative photonic crystal slab. Narrow peaks are visible in the reflection spectrum with a full-width at half maximum (FWHM) of less than 2 nm. In addition to the traditional measurements of the reflected signal, we prese…

Korišteno motorno ulje je jedna od najčešće recikliranih sirovina. Rerafinacija korištenih ulja obezbjeđuje uštedu energetskih i petrohemijskih sirovina, prije svega sirove nafte, i smanjuje zagađenje životne sredine. U ovom radu izvršena su ispitivanja koja imaju za cilj da potvrde mišljenje da se rerafinacijom koriš…

A lateral-grating-assisted lateral co-directional coupler (LGLC) type tunable laser with high optical power and low power consumption is proposed. An approach to reduce the injection current in the gain section, by means of a new laser design, provide the power consumption of the LGLC laser from 0.25 to 0.13 W. The LG…

Two types of square-shaped self-assembled CrN nanoislands of monoatomic layer are fabricated on the Cu(001) substrate. The island edges are commonly oriented along the ⟨110⟩ directions, and the islands locally form a two-dimensional square superstructure. The mean height is either 0.09 or 0.18 nm, and the average late…

The engineering of the propagation constant in integrated silicon nitride waveguides is numerically investigated. We compare several geometrical designs and show that fairly large chromatic dispersion control is obtained when the transversal dimensions are modified.

The purpose of this thesis was to synthesize biodegradable polyesters from a wide array of functionalized ¿-hydroxy acids. The initial strategy was to use amido-functionalized ¿-hydroxy acids and 2-bromopropanoyl bromide to form amido-functionalized cyclic diesters. Then, the resulting cyclic diesters would be used in…

We clarify via molecular dynamic simulations and theoretical analysis the origin of dislocation creation and void nucleation during uniaxial tensile process in face-centered-cubic (FCC) ductile metals. We show that the dislocations are created through three distinguished stages: (i) Flattened octahedral structures (FO…

Biofilters are used to treat liquid waste effluents or gas waste streams. A high biomass concentration can be maintained within systems treating fluids with attached microorganisms that lead to an efficient treatment with a more compact treatment system. The great problem in biofiltration systems remains that in many…

We derive ab inito exchange parameters for general non-collinear magnetic configurations, in terms of a multiple scattering formalism. We show that the general exchange formula has an anisotropic-like term even in the absence of spin-orbit coupling, and that this term is large, for instance for collinear configuration…
