Indium-tin oxide films are deposited by low plasma temperature RF sputtering on highly flexible modification of glycol polyethyleneterephtalate substrates. The produced layers are characterized with transparency over 82 % and sheet resistance of 86.9 Ω/square. The film’s conductivity was further improved by additional UV illumination from light source (365 nm), having power of 250 W. The influe...

Charge transfer at metallo-molecular interfaces may be used to design multifunctional hybrids with an emergent magnetization that may offer an eco-friendly and tunable alternative to conventional magnets and devices. Here, we investigate the origin of the magnetism arising at these interfaces by using different techniques to probe 3d and 5d metal films such as Sc, Mn, Cu, and Pt in contact with...

Introduction The very nature of marine oil spills massive quantities covering vast areas open ocean and/or coastline necessitates the use of satellite remote sensing to supplement other aerial observations. Remote sensing instrumentation is constrained to work in areas of the electromagnetic spectrum, which transmit sufficient quantities of radiation such as the microwave, thermal, near infrare...

A microcontroller-based photon counting system has been developed by the Laser and Medicine-Technology gGmbh, Berlin, Germany, in cooperation with the University of Athens. This microcontroller-based system controls, acquires, processes and stores the data from a high-resolution multichannel gas analyzer based on linear vibrational Raman scattering. The system described provides accurate photon...

Speckle photography is becoming an important method for deformation, displacement and tilt measurements. The technique will be even more attractive to the engineer when its application is in real time. Therefore, the developing process of speckle photography and the subsequent optical Fourier transformation of the photographs will be replaced. Bismuth silicon oxyde Bil2SiO20. has electrical and...

▶ The Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine is the official journal of the European Society for Biomaterials (ESB) ▶ Covers the science and technology of biomaterials and their applications as medical or dental implants, prostheses and devices ▶ Spans a wide range of topics from basic science to clinical applications ▶ Examines the metals, ceramics, polymers and composites used in...

This study attempted to evaluate and compare language learning apps and the related traditional books on the same subject. The apps included Murphy’s English Grammar and Cambridge Discovery Readers and the traditional materials were English Grammar in Use and Developing Reading Skills. The study, thus, aimed to do a comparative analysis between traditional ELT materials and the digital versions...
