temperature is considered as the basic element of climate and also the environmental limiting factor in lutdesert. in this research, in order to identify the temperature of lut desert located in east of central iran, using remote sensing data, six series of modis sensor images related to june 24th & december 23rd 2002, and also january 22nd, march 22nd, june 22nd & september 24th 2003 w...

Luis Carlos first realized he might be able to make a nanothermometer while developing light-emitting diodes more than 15 years ago. His team observed that lanthanide ions in the diodes reacted to changes in temperature by reliably shifting the color they emitted. Carlos, a nanomaterials scientist based at the University of Aveiro, immediately realized that these ions might have a destiny beyon...

different glasses suitable for temperature sensing in the fiber optic sensors were studied in this article. the phase changes for eight different glass materials were calculated and results were compared. our results showed that extra dense flint glass is the most sensitive one, while pure silica results in the lowest phase change. in another study the effect of wavelength on the phase variatio...

double layer zno/sno2 thin film resistive gas sensors were fabricated by successive pvd of those oxides onto porcelain substrates. the metallic contacts were provided by electron beam evaporation of platinum onto substrates prior to deposition of the gas sensitive layers. deposits were thermally annealed at different temperatures. it was shown that the activation energy of electrical conduction...
