OBJECTIVE This review evaluates the diagnostic efficacy of fluorescence spectroscopy, reflectance spectroscopy, and their combination that use both point probe and multispectral imaging approaches in diagnosing cervical neoplasia in vivo. METHODS Articles were selected for this review from a literature search which report the performance of fluorescence and reflectance spectroscopy devices in...

In this paper is introduced a new type of generalization of metric spaces called $S_b$ metric space. For this new kind of spaces it has been proved a common fixed point theorem for four mappings which satisfy generalized contractive condition. We also present example to confirm our theorem.

the improvement of the physical properties of indium tin oxide (ito) layers is quite advantageous in photovoltaic applications. in this study the ito film is deposited by rf sputtering onto p-type crystalline silicon (c-si) with (100) orientation, multicrystalline silicon (mc-si), and glass substrates coated with zno and annealed in vacuum furnace at 400°c. electrical, optical, structural and m...

a nanocomposite of polyaniline (pani) with natural clinoptilolite (clino) was prepared by chemical oxidative polymerization of anilinium cations in the presence of clinoptilolite dispersion. the pani/clino nanocomposite was characterized using ftir, xrd and sem techniques as well as electrical conductivity measurement using four point probe technique. cyclic voltammetry analysis was used to inv...

The present work focuses on the measurements of bubble properties in heterogeneous bubbly flows in a square bubble column. A four-point optical fibre probe was used for this purpose. The accuracy and intrusive effect of the optical probe was investigated first. The results show that the optical probe underestimates bubble properties, such as, bubble velocity, local void fraction. The presence o...
