The most widely used architecture in large-area amorphous silicon (a-Si) flat panel imagers is a passive pixel sensor (PPS), which consists of a detector and a readout switch. While the PPS has the advantage of being compact and amenable toward high-resolution imaging, reading small PPS output signals requires external column charge amplifiers that produce additional noise and reduce the minimu...

This chapter attempts to address the need for more research on virtual team effectiveness and outlines an ecological theoretical framework that is applicable to virtual learning environments (VLE). Prior empirical studies on virtual team effectiveness used frameworks of traditional team effectiveness and mainly followed Hackman's normative model (input-process-output). We propose an ecological ...

this article describes an accurate subpico flowmeter bifurcatedin to liquid and gas flowrates less than 1mol/s for both mems/nems and cryogenic technology applications. the mems/nems are described as either two gauges (instrument), or quartz fluctuating forks, even if the liquid or gas flows through an element, as well as cryogenic technology consisting of arrays of either parallel photonic cry...

Unlike many previous implementations of Kirchhoo-type waveeeld extrapolation (Berryhill, 1979; Bevc, 1995), we propose a procedure that is not only kinematically correct , but dynamically correct in heterogeneous media, in a model-consistent sense. Our approach is to specialize the general,\true-amplitude" data mapping platform of Bleistein & Jaramillo (1997) to the process of downward continua...
