Digitized growth pattern images of wood-rotting fungi Fomitopsis palustris (FOM) and Trametes versicolor (TRA) were used with a video processing program new formula to calculate the numerical results microbial inhibition by an active substance (wood vinegar). First, daily collected generate calibration curves for each fungus. FOM stopped growing in 7 days, whereas TRA 11 days. The showed R2 = 0...

Optimization of acquisition technique factors (target, filter, and kVp) in digital mammography is required for maximization of the image SNR, while minimizing patient dose. The goal of this study is to compare, for each of the major commercially available FFDM systems, the effect of various technique factors on image SNR and radiation dose for a range of breast thickness and tissue types. This ...

The physics-based fractional-order model (FOM) for lithium-ion batteries has shown good application prospects due to its mechanisms and simplicity. To adapt the higher-level applications, this paper proposes an improved FOM considering electrolyte-phase diffusion (FOMe) then a complete method parameter identification based on three characteristic SOC intervals: positive solid phase, negative el...

All optical switching (AOS) applications require materials with a large nonlinear refractive index (n2) but relatively small linear and nonlinear absorption loss. The figure-of-merit (FOM), defined as the ratio between the real and imaginary parts of the second hyperpolarizability (γ), is widely used to evaluate the operating efficiency of AOS materials. By using an essential-state model, we de...

Abstract New paths to increase the sensing performance of plasmonic sensors have been reported in recent years. There are several methodologies achieve such purpose, namely by optimizing nanostructure, nanomaterial and even platform. Recently use nanoparticles over thin films shown sensitivity enhancement, when compared a bare film. Nevertheless, combination between NP film has not studied. In ...

Plasmonic sensors have attracted intensive attention due to their high sensitivity. However, intrinsic metallic loss, plasmonic usually a large full width at half maximum (FWHM) that limits the wavelength resolution. In this paper, we numerically investigate and propose dielectric grating-assisted device, leveraging bound states in continuum (BIC) effect suppress FWHM of resonance. We initiate ...
