– The Lidar (LIght Detection And Ranging) sensor produced by Siemens uses five infrared beams to detect targets up to a distance of approximately 250 m. The paper describes the tests witch has been develop using our new software in order to visualize the detected targets. We used our program in the detection of different types of targets, placed at different distances and in different combinati...

A simple, accurate and rapid high performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC)-densitometric method was developed for separation and determination of cetirizine (CET) as a long acting antihistamine and montelukast (MON) as an antileukotriene in pharmaceutical dosage forms. The compounds were separated on silica gel 60 F254 HPTLC plates using a mixture of ethyl acetate : methanol : ammonia solu...

Relief relative to a local elevation maximum provided a strong indicator of inundation dynamics (i.e., hydroperiod), but was less useful for mapping wetland boundaries. Combining local relief and an Enhanced Topographic Wetness Index produced a map that was well suited for mapping wetland extent and hydroperiod. Wetlands mapped using aerial photographs or LiDAR-derived digital elevation models ...

Quantitative DNA amplification using fluorescence labeling has played an important role in the recent, rapid progress of basic medical and molecular biological research. Here we report a label-free detection of real-time DNA amplification using a nanofluidic diffraction grating. Our detection system observed intensity changes during DNA amplification of diffracted light derived from the passage...

Photonic crystal slow-light gratings fabricated using Si photonics enable high-speed, high-resolution, and wide field-of-view two-dimensional beam scanning via the thermo-optic effect. In this paper, we built a frequency-modulated continuous-wave light detection ranging system on chip by combining scanner with Ge photodiodes for delay homodyne coherent detection. Emitting frequency-swept laser ...
