High Luminescent CCFL

The Multiparadigm Programming Language CCFL

Constraints support an efficient modeling and solution of problems in two ways: The most common application is their use for the description of problems with incomplete knowledge. On the other hand constraints may also serve as particular language constructs for the control of the program evaluation process. This paper presents the Concurrent Constraint Functional Language CCFL which comprises ...

Hydrophilic high-luminescent magnetic nanocomposites.

In this study, hydrophilic high-luminescent magnetic nanocomposites (LMNCs) composed of both fluorescent clusters (quantum dots, QDs) and magnetic nanoparticles were synthesized. The nanocomposites exhibited high luminescence and were easily separated in an external magnetic field. The LMNCs were capped with streptavidin (SA), and the SA on the surface of LMNC-SA composites was confirmed to be ...

Comparing magnetic and piezoelectric transformer approaches in CCFL applications

Cold cathode fluorescent lamps (CCFLs) are commonly used as a backlight source for color liquid crystal displays (LCDs) used in notebook computers and portable electronic devices. These lamps require a high ac voltage for ignition and operation. The required ignition voltage is typically double the operating voltage and increases at cold temperatures. Figure 1 shows the operating voltage of lam...

Optically Stimulated Luminescent Dosimetry for High Dose Rate Brachytherapy

PURPOSE The objective was to determine whether optically stimulated luminescent dosimeters (OSLDs) were appropriate for in vivo measurements in high dose rate brachytherapy. In order to make this distinction, three dosimetric characteristics were tested: dose linearity, dose rate dependence, and angular dependence. The Landauer nanoDot™ OSLDs were chosen due to their popularity and their availa...
