Plow and Ridge Nanofabrication

Plasma Nanoengineering and Nanofabrication

With the recent advances in nanotechnology, plasma nanofabrication has become an exciting new niche because plasma-based approaches can deliver unique structures at the nanoscale that cannot be achieved by other techniques and/or in a more economical and environmentally friendly manner.[...].

PLOW: A Collaborative Task Learning Agent

To be effective, an agent that collaborates with humans needs to be able to learn new tasks from humans they work with. This paper describes a system that learns executable task models from a single collaborative learning session consisting of demonstration, explanation and dialogue. To accomplish this, the system integrates a range of AI technologies: deep natural language understanding, knowl...

PLOW Filter for Color Image Denoising

In this paper, a denoising approach, which exploits patchredundancy for removing Gaussian noise from RGB color images is described. Both geometrical and photometrical similarity of image patches have to be considered for learning the parameters of this Patch-based Locally Optimal Weiner(PLOW) filer. K-means clustering,with LARK(Locally Adaptive Regression Kernel) features, is used to identify t...

Lithographic Techniques for Nanofabrication

Western Nanofabrication Facility

The broad areal extent of the WCSB and the availability of samples throughout the basin provide an excellent framework for studying organic matter micropore morphometrics in relation with thermal maturity. Imaging and pore characterization of the samples from Colorado Group of the WCSB has been conducted using the FIB/ SEM system (LEO (Zeiss) 1540XB) in Western University's Nanofabrication Faci...
