Near-field scanning optical microscopic transient lens for carrier dynamics study in InGaN/GaN [PDF]
Time-resolved microscopic transient lens (TR-M-TL) and near-field scanning optical microscopic transient lens (NSOM-TL) were performed to reveal temporal and spatial behavior of carrier dynamics in InGaN/GaN quantum wells.

Genetic characterization and population structure of maize populations using SSR markers
Maize is a major staple food in sub-Saharan Africa. However, due to the threats posed by biotic and abiotic constraints to its production, it is a prerequisite to conserve germplasm with diverse genetic background and to seek for favourable genotypes ...

Analysis of the 40K contamination in NaI(Tl) crystals from different providers in the frame of the ANAIS project [PDF]
NaI(Tl) large crystals are applied in the search for galactic dark matter particles through their elastic scattering off the target nuclei in the detector by measuring the scintillation signal produced.

Factors that Determine Aflatoxin Infestation in Ghana: Application of Cragg's Double Hurdle Model
In our application of Cragg's (double hurdle) model, we explicitly address functional form misspecification by first using nonparametric regression to identify the functional relationship between aflatoxin infestation and a vector of agronomic and ...

Land cover changes of Atewa Range Forest Reserve, a biodiversity hotspot in Ghana
Protected forests are areas of economic, social, and ecological significance which often depict the original fauna and flora of a region. Notwithstanding their significance, anthropogenic disturbances pose a major threat to the conservation of protected ...
