We report the design, fabrication, and characterization of planar arrays of externally-fed silicon electrospinning emitters for high-throughput generation of polymer nanofibers. Arrays with as many as 225 emitters and with emitter density as large as 100 emitters cm(-2) were characterized using a solution of dissolved PEO in water and ethanol. Devices with emitter density as high as 25 emitters...

As an emerging contaminant, the clogging substances of emitters in biogas slurry drip irrigation systems affect efficient return and utilization to field a great extent. This can be prevented using acid chlorination as engineering measures. Through hydraulic performance test sampling detection analysis, under same addition conditions (pH = 5.5–6.0), three chlorine concentrations (0, 1–3, 4–9 mg...

Room-temperature quantum emitters in gallium nitride (GaN) are reported. The emitters originate from cubic inclusions in hexagonal lattice and exhibit narrowband luminescence in the red spectral range. The sources are found in different GaN substrates, and therefore are promising for scalable quantum technologies.

Cationic iridium(III) complexes represent the single largest class of emitters used in light emitting electrochemical cells (LEECs). In this chapter, we highlight the state-of-the-art emitters in terms of efficiency and stability in LEEC devices, highlighting blue, green, yellow/orange, red and white devices, and provide an outlook to the future of LEECs.

A simulation model was developed to estimate the effect of deficit irrigation upon crop yield. The model was designed to provide relative yield estimates for numerous combinations of irrigation system, crop growth and irrigation management parameters. A daily soil moisture balance was used to predict evaporation and transpiration from which crop yields were estimated. Gross irrigation water req...

A configuration of light pulses is generated, together with emitters and receptors, that allows computing. The computing is extraordinarily high in number of flops per second, exceeding the capability of a quantum computer for a given size and coherence region. The emitters and receptors are based on the quantum diode, which can emit and detect individual photons with high accuracy.

A conductive polypropylene/graphite mixture is used for the production of polymeric nanospray needle emitters and as a coating on fused-silica capillaries that are used for sheathless electrospray ionization (ESI). The described production of these polymeric nanospray needle emitters and sheathless ESI contacts is exceptionally easy and at a very low cost. The described polymeric nanospray emit...
