Abstract: In this study, using density functional theory and the SIESTA computationalcode, we investigate the electronic and optical properties of the armchair graphenenanoribbons and the armchair boron nitride nanoribbons of width 25 in the presence of atransverse external electric field. We have observed that in the absence of the electricfield, these structures are se...

Pulsed electric field (PEF) is commonly understood as a fast, non-thermal, and highly effective method for extraction of intracellular compounds. This treatment involves discharge of high voltage electric pulses of a few microseconds into the food product which is placed or passed between two electrodes (Angersbach et al., 2000). Results of experimental investigation of the electric breakage of...

Electric detection using a nanocomponent may lead to platforms for rapid and simple biosensing. Sensors composed of nanotips or nanodots have been described for highly sensitive amperometry enabled by confined geometry. However, both fabrication and use of nanostructured sensors remain challenging. This paper describes a dendritic nanotip used as an amperometric biosensor for highly sensitive d...

—Large scale electric energy measurement has the problems of big scale of data, difficult of network scheduling and low measurement accuracy. In order to solve the above problems, this paper proposed the electric energy measurement mechanism based on the electromagnetic coupling system and the big data resonant cavity. Firstly, based on the opportunity coupling mechanism, the electromagnetic o...

High resolution (Doppler-resolved) measurement of Doppler-shifted ion absorption frequencies allows the determination of the electric field responsible for the shift. A new method based on velocity modulation laser spectroscopy is described for the nonperturbative measurement of the axial electric fields in glow discharges. The A ‘n, + X I&+ (4.0 ) band of NT has heen used as a probe of a He/N,...

The proliferation of non-linear and time-variant loads is causing a number of disturbances on the electric network, from a more and more significant distortion of both currents and voltages, to transient disturbances on the supply voltage. In this respect the electric network behaves as an "healthy carrier" of disturbances, so that a disturbance generated by one customer can be distributed to o...

The impact of pulsed electric fields (PEF) on cellular integrity and texture of Ranchero and Sabroso onions (Allium cepa L.) was investigated. Electrical properties, ion leakage rate, texture, and amount of enzymatically formed pyruvate were measured before and after PEF treatment for a range of applied field strengths and number of pulses. Critical electric field strengths or thresholds (E(c))...
