A new type of multilayer coatings with narrowband reflection properties and peaked in the approximately 50- 92 nm spectral range has been developed. Multilayers are based on Yb, Al, and SiO films and they have been prepared by thermal evaporation. Efficient multilayers based on Yb and Al, with an SiO protective layer were prepared, but they developed a dendrite structure, which was attributed t...

background: changes in body composition may be used for monitoring progression/ regression of a disease. prompt γ-rays in vivo neutron activation analysis (ivnaa) has been widely used for the measurement of body composition in recent years. objective: in this paper, we tried to improve the safety of ivnaa operator. methods: the most important factor for reducing the operator receiving dose is t...

The effect of shield structures for local wirings of analog integrated circuits on crosstalk is determined by electromagnetic simulation. The crosstalk of parallel wirings is reduced to -70 dB by the shield above and between the wirings. The optimal shield structure and terminal-impedance dependence are determined by numerical analysis taking terminal impedance as well as wiring length and widt...

Introduction: Venus host two distinctive terrains, one tectonic, the other volcanic. These two terrain types, ribbon tessera terrain and shield terrain are both extensively preserved across the surface of Venus, and they might also show a spatial correlation, which may, in turn reflect a genetic relationship. Geology: Ribbon tessera terrain (rtt) represents the oldest locally exposed unit acros...

A multilayer passive shield composed of low-activity lead (Pb), copper (Cu), tin (Sn) and iron (Fe) was designed and manufactured for a coaxial HPGe detector placed at a surface laboratory for reducing background radiation and radiation dose to the personnel. The performance of the shield was evaluated and efficiency curves of the detector were plotted by using of various standard sources in di...
