A supervisory Adaptive Network‐based Fuzzy Inference System (SANFIS) is proposed for the empirical control of a mobile robot. This controller includes an ANFIS controller and a supervisory controller. The ANFIS controller is off‐line tuned by an adaptive fuzzy inference system, the supervisory controller is designed to compensate for the approximation error bet...

The tolerance/resistance of the electronic devices to extremely harsh environments is of supreme interest. Surface effects and chemical corrosion adversely affect stability and operation uniformity of metal oxide resistive memories. To achieve the surrounding-independent behavior, the surface modification is introduced into the ZnO memristors via incorporating fluorine to replace the oxygen sit...

We report on the formation of responsive surfaces with tailorable surface reconstruction kinetics and switching hysteresis by thiolene radical addition of mercaptoalkanols with variable lengths to poly(vinylmethylsiloxane) networks. Exposing these elastomer surfaces to water results in rearrangement of the hydrophilic alkanes at the surface. The rearrangement kinetics decreases with increasing ...

The interaction between surface plasmons (SP) and magnetic behavior has generated great research interest due to its potential for future magneto-optical devices with ultra-high sensitivity and ultra-fast switching. Here we combine two surface sensitive effects: magnetic second-harmonic generation (MSHG) and SP to enhance the detection sensitivity of the surface magnetization in a single-crysta...
