Confidence Intervals and Upper Bounds for Small Signals in the Presence of Background Noise [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We discuss a new method for setting limits on small signals in the presence of background noise. The method is based on a combination of a two dimensional confidence region and the large sample approximation to the likelihood ratio test statistic.

Optical Bistability in Nonlinear Optical Coupler with Negative Index Channel

open access: yes, 2007
We discuss a novel kind of nonlinear coupler with one channel filled with a negative index material (NIM). The opposite directionality of the phase velocity and the energy flow in the NIM channel facilitates an effective feedback mechanism that leads to ...

Combinatorial Games with a Pass: A dynamical systems approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
By treating combinatorial games as dynamical systems, we are able to address a longstanding open question in combinatorial game theory, namely, how the introduction of a "pass" move into a game affects its behavior.

Bank-specific and macro-economic determinants of profitability of Indian commercial banks: A panel data approach

open access: yesCogent Economics & Finance, 2018
This study aims at finding out the determinants of Indian commercial banks profitability. Profitability of Indian banks is measured by three important variables namely, Return on Assets (ROA), Return on Equity (ROE) and Net Interest Margin (NIM).

Comment on "Wave Refraction in Negative-Index Media: Always Positive and Very Inhomogeneous" [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In a recent Physical Review Letter [1] Valanju Walser and Valanju (VWV) called into question the basis of work on the so called negative index media (NIM). See for example [2,3].

Atomic‐Scale Light Coupling Control in Ultrathin Photonic Membranes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Ultrathin photonic nanomembranes provide atomic‐scale control over the coupling between incident light and high‐Q photonic modes, enabling angstrom‐level resonance tuning and strong field confinement. When integrated with TMD monolayers, they further yield enhanced light–matter interactions, offering a versatile platform for advancing quantum photonics,

Study on the ratio change measurement of 1000 kV HVDC divider based on improved DC voltage summation method

open access: yesHigh Voltage, 2019
Determining the voltage ratio change is one of the core issues in the traceability of the DC voltage divider. Basing on the previous research results, this study proposes an improved DC voltage summation method to evaluate the voltage division ratio ...

Negative refraction with tunable absorption in an active dense gas of atoms

open access: yes, 2012
Applications of negative index materials (NIM) presently are severely limited by absorption. Next to improvements of metamaterial designs, it has been suggested that dense gases of atoms could form a NIM with negligible losses.

Positively Charged Polymer‐Brush MOFs for Large‐Area, Pressure‐Resistant Gas Separation Membranes

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A universal POPA strategy enables positively charged polymer‐brush MOFs with self‐adaptive interfacial interlocking to resist aggregation under fast processing. This design ensures seamless dispersion within large‐area selective layers, achieving 1 m‐wide roll‐to‐roll fabrication of pressure‐resistant MMCMs with tunable CO2 separation performance ...
