Optical neural network (ONNs) are emerging as attractive proposals for machine-learning applications. However, the stability of ONNs decreases with circuit depth, limiting scalability practical uses. Here we demonstrate how to compress depth scale only logarithmically in terms dimension data, leading an exponential gain noise robustness. Our low-depth (LD)-ONN is based on architecture, called C...

A carbon nanocomposite electrode has been designed by incorporation of montmorillonite nanoclayinto the carbon ionic liquid electrode for the electrochemical determination of amitriptiline . The surface ofthe proposed electrode was characterized by scanning electron microscopy. The presence of ionic liquid asa binder is believed to be responsible for the electrocatalytic activity of the propose...

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are high aspect ratio allotropes of carbon. Because of their unique physical and chemical characteristics, they are nominated for a vast variety of applications in the biomedical field. Their very low solubility is the only problem of them which is solved by different methods of Functionalization. After discoveries in the last few years of the capacity of CNTs to penetra...

understanding the relationship between soil and plant is essential for reclamation of degraded lands. in order to investigate the relationship between atriplex halimus density with carbon sequestration the rangeland of incheborun was studied. soil samples were collected randomly by auger in the depth of 0-30 cm of the soil profile in three different plant densities (400 stand per hectare) with ...

We report a method of fabrication of free standing and ultra-thin carbon nanotube-parylene-C interpenetrating networks. The network is highly transparent, highly flexible, and more conductive than transparent nanotube/polymer composites. Scanning electron microscope imaging reveals that the interpenetrated networks are dense and pinhole free compared to bare nanotube networks. We found that par...

Waste heat recovery with thermo-electrochemical cells is limited by their low power and conversion efficiencies. Here we explore ionic liquid electrolytes mixed with multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) as alternative electrolytes for thermo-electrochemical cells. The results show that, upon addition of MWCNTs, the combination of interfacial polarization and ion pair dissociation reduces mass tr...

We have taken advantage of the native surface roughness and the iron content of AISI 316 stainless steel to directly grow multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) random networks by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) at low-temperature (1000°C) without the addition of any external catalysts or time-consuming pre-treatments. In this way, super-hydrophobic MWCNT films on stainless steel sheets were obta...

SWNTs have superb electronic and mechanical properties; however, SWNTs come in different chiralities making them either metallic (MET) or semiconducting (SC). It is desirable to have only MET tubes in transparent electrode applications. We have recently developed a method to selectively separate the SC and MET SWNTs and form self sorted networks of each on different functionalized surfaces. To ...
