Hessian cloth (jute fabrics) samples were soaked in the alcoholic shellac solution and dried at 333 K for 4 hours. Six layers of shellac treated hessian cloth were heat pressed (373 K for 10 min at 5 MT pressure) to fabricate biocomposite and then its mechanical properties were evaluated. To improve the mechanical pro…

A counter-intuitive phenomenon of propagation below cut-off in a waveguide filled with an anisotropic mu-negative metamaterial is investigated analytically, numerically, and experimentally. It is shown that the equivalent plane waves that make up the waveguide mode are inhomogeneous, and this fact is responsible for s…

Based on theoretical calculations, we find that the crystal structure of InGaO3(ZnO)m consists of an alternating stack of a wurtzite (Ga∕Zn)–O block and an In–O octahedral layer. In the (Ga∕Zn)–O block, the Ga atoms favor a modulated boundary structure against a flat boundary structure. The band spectrum shows that ho…
