Abstract We developed a novel terahertz-wave detector fabricated on SiC platform implementing an InP/InGaAs Fermi-level managed barrier (FMB) diode. The FMB diode epi-layers were transferred substrate, and waveguide coupler filters monolithically integrated with Then, the chip was assembled in fundamental mixer module WR-3 rectangular-waveguide-input port. It exhibited minimum noise equivalent ...

Chemical looping combustion (CLC) is a novel concept that transfers oxygen from air to fuel using an carrier circulates between reactor and reactor. Thus, the products, H2O CO2, are obtained in separate flow, ideally, pure CO2 gas stream after condensation of H2O. Consequently, CLC has unique potential for avoiding high costs energy penalties capture. Further, NO emissions can potentially be av...

In this study growth characteristics of 815 tuwini (Capoeta trutta) in Shour River were investigated during July 2010 through June 2011. The population was composed of 62.94% females and 32.02% males. Sex ratio was 1: 1.96, with significant differences observed at 1:1 (x2= 150.6 df= 1 p<0.05). The age distribution of this population ranged from <1 to 6 years. The distribution of length and wei...

The stresses in periodic Mo/Si, W/Si, and Mo/C multilayer films were determined from wafer-curvature measurements. The layer thickness of each material was varied systematically, and parametric stress contours were generated, showing contours of constant stress in the two-dimensional layer thickness parameter space. These results illustrate that the net stress in a periodic multilayer is not an...

with considering importance of post harvest operation on quality criteria of pot marigold (calendula offıcinalis l.), the effect of flower nutrient source (organic inputs such as cattle manure (25 t ha-1), municipal waste compost (20 t ha-1), spent mushroom compost (15 t ha-1), vermicompost (15 t ha-1) and control) as well as different drying methods including microwave (300, 600 and 900 w), ov...

STUDY OBJECTIVE To identify margins of safety within which bronchoscopic Nd-YAG laser resection can be performed without damaging indwelling tracheobronchial stents. DESIGN Experimental in vitro study simulating a patient-care environment. METHODS Uncovered and covered metal Wallstent (Schneider; Zurich, Switzerland) and Dumon (Bryan Corporation; Woburn, MA) silicone stents were deployed in...
