We present InP-based evanescently-coupled waveguide modified uni-traveling carrier photodiodes (MUTC-PDs) exhibiting a breakthrough in bandwidth. The optimization of carrier transport and optical coupling is achieved through a detailed…
Formaldehyde, a known human carcinogen, is a common indoor air pollutant. However, its real-time and selective recognition from interfering gases remains challenging, especially for low-power sensors suffering from noise and baseline drift.…
In an unconstrained elastic body, emergence of zero natural frequencies is an expectable outcome on account of the body's ability to purely translate or rotate with no structural deformation. Recent advances in literature have pushed such…
This study presents a superdirective antenna array specifically designed for the sub-6 5G generation frequency range, incorporating pioneering Huygens antenna elements. The optimized structure achieves a realized gain that surpasses…
This article focuses on the prediction of the vibration frequency response of handheld probes. A novel approach that involves machine learning and readily available data from probes was explored. Vibration probes are efficient and…
We report the development of magnetic nanocomposite sheets with superhydrophobic and superoleophilic surfaces generated by laser ablation. Polydimethylsiloxane elastomer freestanding films, loaded homogeneously with 2% wt. carbon coated…
Oxygen defects in semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are localized disruptions in the carbon lattice caused by the formation of epoxy or ether groups, commonly through wet-chemical reactions. The associated modifications…
Wakes are medium perturbations created by a moving object, such as wave patterns behind boats, or wingtip vortices following an aircraft. Here, we report about an experimental study of an uncharted form of parabolic wakes occurring in media…
Vitreous GeO$_2$ has been compressed at high temperature, to investigate the effect of thermal activation on the structural reorganization during compression. The measurements were performed in-situ using micro Raman spectroscopy under…
A new approach to designing FSS-based LP-CP converters is presented. It is based on the use of FSSs which exhibit dual diagonal symmetry, and a novel 4-port equivalent circuit able to describe the electrical behavior of the cells for the…

Rare-earth (Re)Ba2Cu3O7-x (ReBCO) no-insulation (NI) coil is widely concerned due to its excellent electromagnetic and thermal properties. However, the presence of the turn-to-turn shunts in NI coils leads to that complexity of numerical…
A new and straightforward single-step route to decorate melamine foams with silver nanoparticles (ME/Ag) is proposed.
The gas sensitivity of Mg/CuO nanocomposite films, characterized by varying mass ratios of Mg:CuO, was assessed under exposure to 1000 ppm of methanol vapor. Films were fabricated by the doctor blade method on conductive and nonconductive…
The possibility of making compact stopband filters using coplanar-coupled EBG resonators in inverted microstrip gap waveguide technology is studied in this work. To do this, the filtering characteristics of different configurations of…
n-TPA-IFA organic material was synthesized and deposited on p-Si by spin coating method to produce n-TPA-IFA/p-Si heterojunction diode. We determined that the dielectric constant and energy band gap of TPA-IFA organic material were 3.91 and…
We investigate the dynamic properties of elastic lattices defined by tessellations of a curved hyperbolic space. The lattices are obtained by projecting nodes of a regular hyperbolic tessellation onto a flat disk and then connecting those…
