Thermoelectric Properties of Oblique SiGe Whiskers [PDF]
The effects of geometric features of p-type Si1 – xGex (x = 0.01-0.05) whiskers on their thermoelectric properties have been studied. Oblique whiskers of various diameters (10-100 μm) with boron impurity concentration ranging from 1017 to 1020 cm – 3 ...

Facile molten salt synthesis of zirconia whiskers [PDF]
ZrO2 whiskers have been synthesized by a facile molten salt method using ZrOCl2 · 8 H2O and Na3PO4 · 12 H2O as the zirconium source and molten salt, respectively.

Soft bionic actuation explains the functional role of whisking in seal whisker sensing [PDF]
Seals exhibit exceptional ability to navigate and detect underwater prey with high precision, even in complete darkness using their ultra-sensitive whiskers. These whiskers combine two key adaptations: undulatory morphology, which suppresses self-induced

Structural Characteristics of the Si Whiskers Grown by Ni-Metal-Induced-Lateral-Crystallization
Si whiskers grown by Ni-Metal-Induced-Lateral-Crystallization (Ni-MILC) were grown at 413 °C, intentionally below the threshold for Solid State Crystallization, which is 420 °C.

Mechanical and tribological behaviour of PA6 and short aramid fiber composites [PDF]
This paper presents the results of mechanical and tribological characteristics for two composites: PA6 as matrix and 5% aramid whiskers as additive material and PA6 + 10% aramid whiskers, comparing them to those made of PA6 (polyamide 6).

Supra-orbital whiskers act as wind-sensing antennae in rats.
We know little about mammalian anemotaxis or wind sensing. Recently, however, Hartmann and colleagues showed whisker-based anemotaxis in rats. To investigate how whiskers sense airflow, we first tracked whisker tips in anesthetized rats under low (0.5 m ...

Texture coding in the rat whisker system: slip-stick versus differential resonance. [PDF]
Rats discriminate surface textures using their whiskers (vibrissae), but how whiskers extract texture information, and how this information is encoded by the brain, are not known.

Preparation of mullite whiskers from high alumina fly ash and its reinforced porous structure
Porous has been formed in samples when mullite whiskers are prepared by firing compacts of high-aluminum fly ash and ammonium aluminum sulfate hydrate with a small amount of sodium dihydrogen phosphate and SiO2 at high temperature for 4 h. The effects of
