TiO2 anatase nanowires have been prepared by a hydrothermal process followed by post-heat treatment in air. TiO2 nanoparticle/TiO2 nanowire composite electrodes were prepared for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSC) in order to improve light-to-electricity conversion efficiency. The TiO2 NP/TiO2 NW composite cells showed higher DSC performance than ordinary nanoparticle cells and fully nanowire cel...

We report magnetoconductivity measurements on YBa2Cu3Ox (x56.25 and 6.36) single crystals. Our main result is that both the in-plane Dsab and out-of-plane Dsc magnetoconductivities exhibit the field dependence characteristic of ‘‘two-dimensional’’ quantum interference in applied magnetic fields Huuc . Namely, Dsc ,ab }ln H/H0.0, with Dsc /sc substantially greater than Dsab /sab . We interpret t...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate whether arterial spin labeling (ASL) perfusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can reliably quantify perfusion deficit as compared to dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) perfusion MRI. METHODS Thirty-nine patients with acute ischemic stroke in the anterior circulation territory were recruited. All underwent ASL and DSC MRI perfusion scans wi...

This booklet provides an introduction to the concepts of Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). It is written for the materials scientist unfamiliar with DSC. The differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) is a fundamental tool in thermal analysis. It can be used in many industries – from pharmaceuticals and polymers, to nanomaterials and food products. The information these instruments generate...

(2015) Combination of (M)DSC and surface analysis to study the phase behaviour and drug distribution of ternary solid dispersions. The Nottingham ePrints service makes this work by researchers of the University of Nottingham available open access under the following conditions. A note on versions: The version presented here may differ from the published version or from the version of record. If...

Thermal analysis has been an extremely important analytical tool within the pharmaceutical industry for more than forty (40) years. Although the technique could easily be classified as mature, recent advances in Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) have generated renewed enthusiasm in thermal analysis from pharmaceutical scientists. These new developments include TzeroTM DSC and Modulated DS...

This paper deals with the application of distributed source coding (DSC) theory to remote sensing image compression. Although DSC exhibits a significant potential in many application fields, up till now the results obtained on real signals fall short of the theoretical bounds, and often impose additional system-level constraints. The objective of this paper is to assess the potential of DSC for...
