RF-MEMS switches contain movable fragile parts. A specific packaging approach is required for reasons of protection during fabrication as well as during operation. We present in this paper a 0-level packaging process using a photopatternable polymer BenzoCycloButene and its performances measured up to 110 GHz.

Total phenolic contents (TPC) of five different extracts (petroleum ether, dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, ethanol and ethanol-water) of Artemisia biennis Willd were measured in this work. The antioxidant activity was investigated by three different methods: β-carotene bleaching (BCB) test, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging method and ferrous ion chelating (FIC) assay. Amo...

Al2O3 doped Mn3O4 nanomaterial was synthesized by low-temperature stirring method and applied as a catalyst for the degradation of organic pollutants under solar light for prospective environmental applications. The morphological and physiochemical structure of the synthesized solar photocatalyst was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), e...

Azul de cresil brilhante (BCB) foi eletropolimerizado sobre a superfície de um eletrodo de carbono líquido iônico (CILE) por voltametria cíclica de varredura na faixa de potencial de –0,5 a 1,0 V. CILE foi preparado usando o 1-etil-3-metil-imidazólio tetrafluoroborato ([EMIM]BF4) como modificador. Um filme polimerico estável de BCB foi obtido no CILE com aparecimento de um par de picos redox. A...

It is not easy to differentiate patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) from subjective memory complainers (SMC). Assessments with screening cognitive tools are essential, particularly in primary care where most patients are seen. The objective of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of screening cognitive tests and to propose a score derived from screening tests. Elderly su...

Global warming and altered precipitation patterns are predicted to intensify the water loss in semi-arid arid regions, such regions Turkey will be particularly affected. Moreover, abstraction, not least for irrigation purposes, is expected increase markedly, posing major threats balance of lakes thus their biodiversity. Among closed basins Turkey, Burdur Closed Basin (BCB), located southwest mo...
