Fluoride glasses for optical fibre applications were prepared using a containerless processing technique (the gas film levitation technique) to prevent the contamination of the glass melts by the c
Crystalline texture in polymer spherulites appears to be determined in part by interplay during solidification between interface morphology and the diffusion of species segregated at crystal growt
Controlled optical scattering within or around an optical fiber provides a potentially useful means for adjusting its transmission characteristics.
Excess gate leakage in AlInAs/InGaAs/InP HEMTs, resulting in a hump-shape superimposed to the conventional reverse current characteristics has been documented as originating from holes created by i
Interference from room noise is controllable in two ways: (1) by the design of a good anti-side tone subscriber's set, and (2) by suitably designing the transmitter capsule and the handset, the lat
Straine due to lattice mismatch at the semiconductor interfaces often plays an important role in determining both the thin film growth mechanism as well as the material electronic structure and phy
We show that a small tensile strain induces a 5x5 reconstruction on a clean Si (111) surface, and at an initially unreconstructed Si (111)/oxide interface.
In heterogeneous chemical kinetics, the Arrhenius parameters often used to describe the chemical rate process, the activation energy E(a) and pre-exponential factor A, vary with coverage or adsorb
Complex permeability mu (= mu' -j(.)mu'') of a Permalloy Ni80Fe20 thin film, deposited on a 0.5 mm thick glass substrate, is investigated in the frequency range from 0.15 to 6GHz using a single-coi
It has been observed by several authors that MOS devices with polycrystalline Si gates behave differently depending on the doping species in polySi: the work-function difference between the silicon
