Principles and promise of Fabry-Perot resonators at terahertz frequencies [PDF]
Fabry–Perot resonators have tremendous potential to enhance the sensitivity of spectroscopic systems at terahertz (THz) frequencies. Increasing sensitivity will be of benefit in compensating for the relatively low power of current high resolution ...

Do not let thermal drift and instrument artifacts deceive high‐temperature nanoindentation results. We compare classical Oliver–Pharr and automatic image recognition analyses across steels and a Ni alloy to quantify these effects. Accounting for artifacts reveals systematic softening with temperature, while Cr and Ni additions boost resistance ...

CONSTRUCTION OF A PARABOLIC SOLAR COLLECTOR AND COMPARATIVE STUDY OF THE PERFORMANCE OF ALUMINUM-COATED PELLICLE FILM AND ALUMINUM FOIL AS REFLECTING SURFACES [PDF]
Most of the concentrators used in solar thermal systems are made from mirrors or metals with mirror or other highly reflective surfaces. Because mirror is the best reflecting surface for solar collectors and parabolic mirrors are expensive, people in the

Metals in Metal Salts: A Copper Mirror Demonstration
A simple lecture demonstration is described to show the latent presence of metal atoms in a metal salt. Copper(II) formate tetrahydrate is heated in a round-bottom flask forming a high-quality copper mirror.

(Acetylacetone isonicotinoylhydrazonato-κ3O,N′,O′)dioxidovanadate(V) monohydrate
The hydrazone anion in the title compound, [V(C11H12N3O2)O2]·H2O, is zwitterionic as its pyridyl N atom is protonated; the O, N and O′ atoms span the axial–equatorial–axial positions of the trigonal-bipyramidal ...

1.5V fully programmable CMOS Membership Function Generator Circuit with proportional DC-voltage control [PDF]
A Membership Function Generator Circuit (MFGC) with bias supply of 1.5 Volts and independent DC-voltage programmable functionalities is presented. The realization is based on a programmable differential current mirror and three compact voltage-to-current

Aluminum and nitride coatings are used in industry because they are hard, resist wear, and protect against oxidation. Adding boron can improve friction behavior and other properties. This study tests coatings on surfaces with different finishes. Results show smoother surfaces perform better, while rough ones wear faster, although coatings can reduce ...

Probing of sub-picometer vertical differential resolutions using cavity plasmons
Plasmon rulers can be used for resolving ultrasmall material changes. Here, the authors show how cavity plasmons in a metal nanowire-on-mirror setup can be used to probe vertical dimensional changes with sub-picometer differential resolution using two ...
