Here we report the development of a new scalable and transferable plasma assisted atomic layer deposition (PEALD) process for production uniform, conformal pinhole free NiO with sub-nanometre control on commercial ALD reactor.

G replacement reactions between solid metal nanoparticles with oxidizing metal precursors represent a versatile strategy for synthesizing hollow metal nanostructures with tailored properties that are difficult (or even impossible) to achieve from their solid counterparts. For example, reactions of silver nanocubes with aqueous solutions of HAuCl4 enable the synthesis of hollow nanoboxes with se...

When rendering or capturing stereoscopic images, two arrangements of the cameras are possible: radial (“toed-in”) and parallel. In the radial case all of the cameras’ axes pass through a common point; in the parallel case these axes are parallel to one another. The radial configuration causes distortions in the viewed stereoscopic image, manifest as vertical misalignments between parts of the i...

We prospectively performed gamma correction pinhole bone scan (GCPBS) and histopathologic verification study to make simultaneous morphobiochemical diagnosis of trabecular microfractures (TMF) occurred in the femoral head as a part of femoral neck fracture.Materials consisted of surgical specimens of the femoral head in 6 consecutive patients. The specimens were imaged using Tc-99m hydroxymethy...

BACKGROUND The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether a pinhole collimator is better adapted to bremsstrahlung single photon emission computed tomography [SPECT] than parallel-hole collimators and in the affirmative, to evaluate whether pinhole bremsstrahlung SPECT, including a simple model of the scatter inside the patient, could provide a fast dosimetry assessment in liver selective inte...

Abstract The geometric phase for classical electromagnetic light beams, in its original formulation as introduced by Pancharatnam, concerns fields experiencing cyclic, discrete in-phase polarization-state changes. A similar was later recognized Berry to govern the behavior of adiabatic quantum systems, with consequent extensions nonadiabatic and noncyclic evolutions state. However, no optical c...

A pinhole camera, an extreme ultraviolet (EUV) spectrometer, a fast gatable multichannel plate EUV detector, and a digital camera have been installed on the ASML EUV laboratory setup to perform time-resolved pinhole imaging and EUV spectroscopy on a copy of the Philips EUV hollow cathode discharge plasma source. The main properties of the setup have been characterized. Time-resolved measurement...

Earth-dam failure starts with cracking in the clay core, and this is not easy to detect prevent. Therefore, swellable a feasible solution, which helps close cracks automatically based on self-healing process. The presented study utilizes experimental procedures analyze swelling behavior of fine-grained clayey soils prevent structural regarding crack generations. In regard, materials were modifi...
