Noise Spectroscopy and Electrical Transport In NbO2 Memristors with Dual Resistive Switching

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Electrical properties of NbO2‐based memristors are studied and the ability to engineer them for computing applications is explored. By employing noise spectroscopy and by utilizing a dimerization model of insulators, negative differential resistance and inhomogeneous conduction regions are explained.

Thermoelasticity and generalized thermoelasticity viewed as wave hierarchies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
It is seen how to write the standard\^E form of the four partial differential equations in four unknowns of anisotropic thermoelasticity as a single equation in one variable, in terms of isothermal and isentropic wave operators.

Decision‐making processes of public sector accounting reforms in India—Institutional perspectives

open access: yesFinancial Accountability &Management, Volume 39, Issue 1, Page 167-194, February 2023., 2023
Abstract While International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) convergence has been the face of the global accounting standardisation movement for the past few decades, accounting reforms in the public sector had started to gain momentum from the late 1990s. This paper examines the reasons for the adoption of public sector accrual accounting reforms

Exact Time: the First Scientific Application of Radiocommunications

open access: yesSubstantia, 2018
Marconi’s first experiment of signal transmission by means of Hertzian waves was carried out in 1895. In the following years, wireless telegraphy progressed steadily and worldwide efforts were made to exploit the potential offered by new technologies. In

Precursors of Wireless Telegraphy [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1922
A TRADITION is growing (cf. NATURE, March 9, p. 316), and requires scrutiny, that it was owing to discouragement by Sir George Stokes that D. E. Hughes abandoned his experiments in 1879, anticipatory of the methods and apparatus of modern wireless telegraphy. This is in contrast to all that is known of Stokes' extreme caution in advancing opinions, for

Marconi, masculinity and the heroic age of science: wireless telegraphy at the British Association meeting at Dover in 1899

open access: yes, 2016
In September 1899, at the annual meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science (BAAS) in Dover, Guglielmo Marconi’s wireless telegraphy system was used to transmit messages across the English Channel (and across a national border) for
