Fabrication of silicon nitride ion sensitive field-effect transistor for pH measurement and DNA immobilization/hybridization
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2013)
The fabrication of ion sensitive field-effect transistor (ISFET) using silicon nitride (Si3N4) as the sensing membrane for pH measurement and DNA is reported. For the pH measurement, the Ag/AgCl electrode was used as the ...
Identification of limiting friction coefficient towards improved hip prostheses
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Wear generated by the presence of friction on hip joint contact surfaces can cause debris, which may lead to loosening and failure of the hip prostheses. The objective of this study is to examine the limiting friction ...
The effect of sintering duration on mechanical properties of Al/SiC composites
(Praise Worthy Prize S.r.l., 2013-11)
Metal matrix composites (MMCs) have become attractive in a variety of applications due to its advantage of having intermediate properties between metal and ceramic. This paper presents the investigation of the effect of ...
First-principles study of structural stabilities, elastic and electronic properties of transition metal monocarbides (TMCs) and mononitrides (TMNs)
(Elsevier Ltd., 2013-12)
The structural stabilities, elastic and electronic properties of 5d transition metal mononitrides (TMNs) XN with (X = Ir, Os, Re, W and Ta) and 5d transition metal monocarbides (TMCs) XC with (X = Ir, Os, Re and Ta) were ...
The existing of oxygen nonstoichiometry in complex lithium oxides
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
The possibility of oxygen deficiency in lithium-based complex oxides particularly for layered rock salt structures has little attention in the literature, in spite of the importance of these materials as potential lithium ...
First-principles study of the electronic structure, charge density, Fermi surface and optical properties of zintl phases compounds Sr2ZnA 2 (A=P, As and Sb)
(Elsevier Ltd., 2013-11)
We present first-principles calculations of the electronic structure, Fermi surface, electronic charge density and optical properties of Sr 2ZnA2 (A=P, As and Sb) based on density-functional theory using the local density ...
Sol-gel derived ZnO nanoparticulate films for ultraviolet photodetector (UV) applications
(Elsevier GmbH, 2013-11)
Zinc oxide nanoparticles based UV detector was fabricated on thermally oxidized silicon substrate. ZnO nanoparticle films were deposited using sol-gel route. The seed solution was prepared using two different solvents ...
Fabrication and characterization of ZnO thin films by sol-gel spin coating method for the determination of phosphate buffer saline concentration
(Bentham Science Publishers., 2013)
The fabrication, characterization and application of nanostructured zinc oxide (ZnO) thin films on interdigitated silver electrodes were described for the determination of phosphate buffer saline (PBS) concentration. The ...
Development of interdigitated electrode molecular imprinted polymer sensor for monitoring alpha pinene emissions from mango fruit
(Elsevier B.V., 2013)
Alpha Pinene is a type of terpene hydrocarbons commonly emitted in substantial amounts by plants such as mango. Using Interdigitated Electrode (IDE) structure, a sensor for detecting Alpha Pinene volatile by using molecular ...
A simple technique for improving the anechoic performance of a pyramidal absorber
(EMW Publishing, 2013)
In this paper, we propose a very simple technique that offers an extra degree of freedom to optimize the design of a tire dust-based absorber with reduced height. Cladding is a technique that is used to enhance the surface ...
