In this paper, for an odd prime p, new quaternary sequences of even period 2p with ideal autocorrelation property are constructed using the binary Legendre sequences of period p. For the new quaternary sequences, two properties which are considered as the major characteristics of pseudo-random sequences are derived. Firstly, the autocorrelation distribution of the proposed quaternary sequences ...

background: quaternary ammonium compounds (qac), which contain benzalkonium chloride as the most widely used agent, are employed as wound and skin antiseptics, as well as disinfectants in hospitals. the resistance mechanism to disinfectants is usually determine by genes which are related to resistance to quaternary ammonium compounds, namely, qace, qacδe1, qacδe1 that are found in gram-negative...

The optical properties of InGaN/GaN laser diode based on quaternary alloys stopper and superlattice layers are numerically studied using ISE TCAD (Integrated System Engineering) simulation program. Improvements in laser optical performance have been achieved using quaternary alloy as superlattice layers in InGaN/GaN laser diodes. Lower threshold current of 18 mA and higher output power and slop...

The study of good nonregular fractional factorial designs has received significant attention over the last two decades. Recent research indicates that designs constructed from quaternary codes (QC) are very promising in this regard. The present paper shows how a trigonometric approach can facilitate a systematic understanding of such QC designs and lead to new theoretical results covering hithe...

benzalkonium chloride is a quaternary ammounium compounds derivative under different names such as afxhang, hamoon, mahan etc, which have great and expanded use in sanitation and medical affairs. bactericidal activity of these disinfectants was fulfilled according to national standard method no.2842 on staph. aureus, sal. typhimouium and e. coli. this laboratory test showed that, except mahan t...

palynological analyses from exposed palaeolacustrine deposits located at the flanks of damavand volcano, in the central alborzmountains in northern iran, provide a broad idea of the temporal variation of vegetation according to climate changes during a rangeof limited time intervals during the quaternary period. this research reveals that the regional vegetation of the study area had been asemi...

Two biodegradable quaternary ammonium salts were synthesized and used as cationic collectors in processing iron ores by froth flotation. The flotation behaviors of iron minerals with the new biodegradable quaternary ammonium collectors were investigated by micro-flotation tests of quartz (SiO2) and magnetite (Fe3O4). It was observed that the new biodegradable collectors were effective in separa...

Multi-valued logic gates, which can handle quaternary numbers as inputs, are developed by exploiting the ballistic transport properties of quantum point contacts in series. The principle of a logic gate that finds the minimum of two quaternary number inputs is demonstrated. The device is scalable to allow multiple inputs, which makes it possible to find the minimum of multiple inputs in a singl...

Four-level (quaternary) signalling in optical communication systems is investigated and the optimisation of quaternary signal level spacing is carried out considering signalamplified spontaneous emission beat noise dominance. The optimised quaternary signal is propagated through an optical dispersive fibre and sensitivity improvements can be found for shorter transmission distances and non-zero...
