Kodak X-Omat V radiographic film has been tested for its polarization properties when using polarized and non-polarized light sources and detectors. The radiographic film has been shown to produce a relatively small but not negligible (less than 5%) variation in 90 degrees cycles in measured optical density within the visible spectrum when the light source is fully linear polarized and the film...

In this work, nanostructured TiO2 and Cr-doped TiO2 thin films were deposited on glass substrate through sonochemical-chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. The resulting thin films were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), UV-visible absorption spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectroscopy techniques. The TiO2 thin film has nanocubic morphology and ...

thin film phthalocyanines(pc), incloding zinc, iron, and magnesium phthalocyani-nes, were prepared by vacuum deposition method. chronocoulometry was used to study the charge transfer reaction mechanism of ionic species through the thin films. the results obtained in chronocoulometric studies shows that the thin film phthalocyanines could operate via two mechanisms.the first mechanism metal pc t...

The paper describes new approach of potentiostat for very low sensor current measurements. Recent potentiostats were used as measurement devices which were standalone and sensors were connected by a screened wire. These concepts are inconvenient for the presented very low current measurements. The new approach is based on the potentiostat circuitry integrated on a chip that should be directly c...

Current methodologies used for the inference of thin film stress through curvature measurements are strictly restricted to stress and curvature states which are assumed to remain uniform over the entire film/substrate system. Recently Huang, Rosakis and co-workers [Huang, Y., Ngo, D., Rosakis, A.J., 2005. Non-uniform, axisymmetric misfit strain: in thin films bonded on plate substrates/substrat...

nanofibrillated cellulose fibers were produced from unbleached kraft pulp of kenaf bast fiber. air dried and vacuum filtrated films of cellulose nanofibers were produced and their density and tensile properties were investigated. kenaf bast fiber unbleached kraft pulp has good potential for production of cellulose nanofibers by microfluidizer; so that the use of kenaf bast fiber unbleached kraf...

abstractbackgrounds: md-55-2 is one of the radiochromic film models with the sensitivity suitable for dose measurements ranging from 5 to 100 gy.  however, this lower limit makes the film impractical for its applications in many areas such as brachytherapy source dosimetry.materials and methods: in this project, the useful range of the film has been extended by using a multilayer film technique...

copper sulphide (cu 2 s) thin films at different thicknesses and annealing temperatures were deposited onto glass substrate by vacuum evaporation method. xrd study reveals the phase transformation of cu     2 s film at higher thickness. optical and resistivity study show the phase transformation of the film from cu     2 s to cus when they are annealed at higher temperature. sem st...

High myopia is a global eye health problem because of its high incidence of sight-threatening complications. Due to the role of awareness, self-examination, and preventive behavior in prevention of morbidity of high myopia complications, promoting knowledge, capabilities, and attitude of high myopic personnel are required in this regard.In this quasi-experiment study, 31 freshmen with high myop...
