In this work, Eu3+-implanted and annealed AlxGa1-xN (0 ? x 1) nanowires (NWs) grown on GaN NW template Si (111) substrates by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy are studied µ-Raman, cathodoluminescence (CL), nano-CL, temperature-dependent steady-state photoluminescence (PL). The preferential location of the ions is found to be at top-section. recovery as-grown crystalline properties achieve...

Cellulases are a class of enzymes great industrial interest that present several strategic applications. However, the high cost enzyme production, coupled with instabilities and complexities proteins required for hydrolytic processes, still limits their use in protocols. Therefore, immobilization may be an essential tool to overcome these issues. The work aimed evaluate cellulolytic commercial ...

Sub-Saharan Africa has the highest ratio of maternal deaths in the world. Despite some progress, it is uncertain if Ghana (like other sub-Saharan countries) can reduce, by three-quarters, the maternal mortality ratio (MMR) by the year 2015 Therefore, the primary purpose of this study was to determine the predictors of MMR in Ghana. The study utilized data from the Demographic and Health Survey ...

In this paper we examine how an education policy intervention the introduction of a comprehensive school in Sweden that increased the number of compulsory years of schooling affected cognitive and non-cognitive skills and long-term health. We use detailed administrative data combined with survey information to create a data set with background information, child ability and long-term adult outc...
