Introduction:  In  this  study,  we  utilized  the  MCNP4C  Monte  Carlo  code  to  quantitatively  evaluate  the  influence of crystal size and material on intercrystal scatter and parallax effects.   Materials and Methods:  For each of the 5 selected crystals (BGO, LSO, LYSO, LuAP, GSO), transport of  511  keV  photons  originating  from  a  point  source  and  incident  on  the  central  cry...

a novel complex of cadmium (ii) [cdl0.5(no3)(h2o)](1), l= n,n-bis (o-hydroxyacetophenone) ethylene diamine, have been synthesized as single crystal and nano size. compound 1 in nano size was obtained under sonochemical irradiation and has been characterized by ir, 1hnmr spectroscopy, x-ray powder diffraction (xrd) and scanning electron microscopy (sem). the gray single crystal of compound 1 has...

this work is focused on synthesis of sio2- cnt hybrides via sol-gel method. homogeneous distribution of carbon nanotubes within silicon matrix was obtained by mixing the functionalized carbon nanotube (cntcooh) with active silicic acid followed by titration to the solution of sodium silicate (na2sio3) under the average temperature condition of 80?c. different ratios of multi-walled carbon nanot...

Enzymatic hydrolysis of non-dried and dried cellulose samples having various particles size, degree of polymerization, porosity, crystalline polymorph, and content of non-crystalline domains has been studied. Regression analysis was carried out to determine contribution of various structural features of cellulose samples to their hydrolysability. It was found that particle size, degree of polym...

in this paper, design and construction of a tactile sensor for measuring contact-force is presented. mechanism of measuring contact-force in this tactile sensor is based on impedance changing of piezoelectric crystal and voltage of different points in circuit as a result of applying force on the crystal. by considering a specific point in the circuit and recording the changes of its voltage, ma...
