El objetivo del artículo es analizar la calidad de vida objetiva los habitantes distritos provincia Buenos Aires (Argentina), exceptuando partidos Gran (GBA), y explicar las diferenciaciones territoriales a partir dos variables como el Producto Bruto Geográfico (PBG) per cápita (2003) Tasa anual crecimiento intercensal (2001-2010). Se aplicó una metodología naturaleza cuantitativa, basada en ob...

Abstract Alternating layers of different materials with sub wavelength thickness in one dimension are used for controlling the propagation electromagnetic waves owing to their ability selectively transfer and confine photons specific wavelengths, called photonic band gap (PBG). Temperature independent large PBG visible range is highly desired many applications we have theoretically investigated...

IO N Control of spontaneous emission (SE) is central to many applications involved with photon management including light emitting sources, [ 1–3 ] solar energy [ 4 , 5 ] and quantum information processing. [ 6 , 7 ] For example, control of the direction of SE may facilitate more effi cient light extraction in optical display devices. Spectral redistribution of SE may permit more photons to cou...

Extensive research has investigated how perceived brand globalness (PBG) and localness (PBL) affect brand. In this systematic literature review, the authors organize synthesize on PBG PBL by analyzing 95 articles published in past 17 years. They identify similarities, inconsistencies, omissions investigating different conceptualizations of PBL, boundary conditions effects preference, psychologi...

A key characteristic of programmable hydrogels is that their physical and chemical properties can be changed postsynthetically. In order to achieve this, we used sub-50 nm photoacid/base generator nanoparticles, which could alter the charge density/polarity a host macroscopic hydrogel (e.g., polyacrylamide). The photoacid (PAG) were composed poly(methyl methacrylate-co-4,5-dimethoxy-2-nitrobenz...

We introduce a new type of metallo-dielectric photonic band gap structure (PBG), intentionally incorporating very strong capacitive interactions between the periodic metallic islands. The band gaps become huge, with the lower band edge frequency being pushed down by the capacitive interaction between metallic islands, while the upper band edge frequency continues to depend primarily on the latt...

Numerical calculations are employed to study the modulation of light by surface acoustic waves (SAWs) in photonic band gap (PBG) structures. The on/off contrast ratio in a PBG switch based on an optical cavity is determined as a function of the SAW-induced dielectric modulation. We show that these structures exhibit high contrast ratios even for moderate acousto-optic coupling. PACS: 42.79.Ta, ...

A general design for high-bandwidth, single-mode, lossless, optical micro-circuitry with fully three-dimensional circuit paths is demonstrated. Our 3D circuit design consists of dense stacking several planar microchip layers into the 2D-3D photonic band gap heterostructures and linking them with vertical interconnects. The 3D microchip enables an extra "dimension" of up to 200 nanometer single-...
