Photoconductive response of strained silicon nanowires: A Monte Carlo study
(
AIP Publishing LLC.
, 2014 , Article)
Using Ensemble Monte Carlo simulations, the photocurrent in a 500 nm long strained [110] silicon nanowire with diameter of 3.1 nm is investigated. It was observed that a phototransistor based on this nanowire can have ...
Moderate salinity stimulates growth and photosynthesis of Phragmites karka by water relations and tissue specific ion regulation
(
Elsevier
, 2014 , Article)
The domestication of non-food salt resistant plants could be helpful for biofuel as well as phyto-remediation of salt-affected lands. Limited eco-physiological studies on halophytes are the major bottleneck in developing ...
Direct electroreduction of indium and tin oxides in molten salts
(
Electrochemical Society Inc.
, 2014 , Article)
Indium is a rare metal. The largest end use for indium is in thinfilm coatings as indium oxide combined with 10 percent tin oxide (ITO). However, indium has recycling rates less than 1%. Indium and tin are especially well ...
Rheology of a viscoelastic zwitterionic surfactant used in acid stimulation: Effects of surfactant and electrolyte concentration
(
Elsevier
, 2014 , Article)
Acid diversion systems play an important role in increasing the efficiency of the acid stimulation process. Viscoelastic surfactant (VES) based diverting systems have many advantages that make them preferred for well acid ...
Grain refining and improving mechanical properties of a warm rolled AZ31 alloy plate
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2014 , Article)
The mechanical properties of an AZ31 magnesium alloy were improved after warm rolling. The study involved a pre-rolling condition in which the material consisted of twins, playing a key role in recrystallization grain ...
Electrically conductive composites based on an elastomeric matrix filled with expanded graphite as a potential oil sensing material
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2014 , Article)
The preparation and properties of electrically conductive polymeric composites based on an elastomer matrix (styrene-isoprene styrene block copolymer) filled with expanded graphite are reported in this paper. The developed ...
Deep drawability and drawing behaviour of AZ31 alloy sheets with different initial texture
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
Repeated unidirectional bending (RUB) process was carried out to improve the texture of AZ31 alloy sheets. Compared to the as-received sheet with a strong basal texture, the RUB processed sheet with a weaker basal texture ...
Using the Sadakane compressed suffix tree to solve the all-pairs suffix-prefix problem
(
Hindawi
, 2014 , Article)
The all-pairs suffix-prefix matching problem is a basic problem in string processing. It has an application in the de novo genome assembly task, which is one of the major bioinformatics problems. Due to the large size of ...
Effect of the degree of template removal from mesoporous silicate materials on their adsorption of heavy oil from aqueous solution
(
Springer VerlagHigher Education Press
, 2014 , Article)
The key aim of this study is to evaluate the adsorption of heavy oil from aqueous solutions with different oil contents over mesoporous silicate materials having different surfactant template contents. The mesoporous ...
Insights into molecular features of venerupis decussata oocytes: A microarray-based study
(
Public Library of Science
, 2014 , Article)
The production of Venerupis decussata relies on wild seed collection, which has been recently compromised due to recruitment failure and severe mortalities. To address this issue and provide an alternative source of seed, ...
