Modulated Luminescence of Lanthanide Materials by Local Surface Plasmon Resonance Effect
Lanthanide materials have great applications in optical communication, biological fluorescence imaging, laser, and so on, due to their narrow emission bandwidths, large Stokes’ shifts, long emission lifetimes, and excellent photo-stability.

Novel materials to enhance keratoprosthesis integration [PDF]
The successful integration of keratoprostheses (KPros) within the cornea depends in part on peripheral host keratocyte adhesion to anchor the implant in place and prevent epithelial downgrowth. The following study incorporated different acrylate co-monomers with poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (p(HEMA)) and measured the suitability of these materials ...

Effects of GaN Buffer Resistance on the Device Performances of AlGaN/GaN HEMTs
We investigated the effects of GaN buffer resistance of AlGaN/GaN high-electron-mobility transistors (HEMTs) on direct current (DC), low-frequency noise (LFN), and pulsed I-V characterization performances.

The effect of Nb2O5 and ZrO2 additions on the behaviour of Li/MgO and Li/Na/MgO catalysts for the oxidative coupling of methane [PDF]
Incorporation of Nb2O5 or ZrO2 into both Li/MgO and Li/Na/MgO systems produced ternary and quaternary catalysts, respectively, capable of attaining optimal C2 yields and selectivities at lower temperatures relative to the unpromoted materials. The degree

Low-Frequency Noise Behavior of AlGaN/GaN HEMTs with Different Al Compositions
AlxGa1−xN/GaN heterostructures with two kinds of Al composition were grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) on sapphire substrates. The Al compositions in the AlGaN barrier layer were confirmed to be 13% and 28% using high resolution X ...
