We demonstrate a spatially uniform enhancement of individual quantum dot (QD) fluorescence emission using plasmonic grating decouplers on thin gold or silver films. Individual QDs are deposited within the grating in a controlled way to investigate the position dependency on both the radiation pattern and emission enhancement. We also describe the optimization of the grating decoupler. We achiev...

the constitutive relationships of the rubber materials that act as the main spring of a hydraulic engine mount are nonlinear. in addition to material induced nonlinearity, further nonlinearities may be introduced by mount geometry, turbulent fluid behavior, temperature, boundary conditions, decoupler action, and hysteretic behavior. in this research all influence the behavior of the system only...

In present work ,a boiler turbine plant is presented as a 2x2 MIMO system with high multivariable interaction having two manipulated variables namely the governor valve position and the fuel flow rate and two control variables namely generated electric power and the steam pressure. The controller for this plant has been designed using conventional PID and MPC technique by first investigating th...

This article demonstrates that a three-electrode electrochemical (EC) detector and an electric decoupler could be fabricated in the same glass chip and integrated with an O2-plasma-treated PDMS layer using microfabrication techniques to form the capillary electrophoresis (CE) microchip. The platinized decoupler could mostly decouple the electrochemical detection circuit from the interference of...

The output and input coupling characteristics of the compliant parallel mechanism (CPM) bring difficulty in the motion control and challenge its high performance and operational safety. This paper presents a systematic design method for a 2-degrees-of-freedom (DOFs) CPM with excellent decoupling performance. A symmetric kinematic structure can guarantee a CPM with a complete output decoupling c...
