Clock and data recovery (CDR) circuits are key electronic components in future optical broadband communication systems. In this paper, we present a 40-Gb/s integrated CDR circuit applying a phase-locked loop technique. The IC has been fabricated in a 50-GHz f T self-aligned double-polysilicon bipolar technology using only production-like process steps. The achieved data rate is a record value f...

The general thermodynamic analysis of the quantum vacuum, which is based on our knowledge of the vacua in condensed-matter systems, is consistent with the Einstein earlier view on the cosmological constant. In the equilibrium Universes the value of the cosmological constant is regulated by matter. In the empty Universe, the vacuum energy is exactly zero, λ = 0. The huge contribution of the zero...

Adenoviruses (AdVs) types 40 and 41 are the causative agents of diarrhea in children. Hence, rapid sensitive and specific detection of these viruses are of clinical importance. The customary methods such as propagation of virus in cell culture suffer from limitations. Detection of immobilized amplified products in a one phase system (DIAPOPS) method has the potential to overcome these problems....

Menopause is a natural phenomenon in a woman’s life, usually occurring between the ages of 40 and 50. The word menopause is derived from the Greek meno (month or menses) and pausis (pause). This refers to the cessation of menses or the periodic discharge of uterine tissue in women (Lindsay, 1999). The actual changes preceding and following this time occur over several years. This paper will com...

The emergence of drug resistant strains of Plasmodium spp. creates a critical need for the development of novel antimalarials. Formation of hemozoin, a crystalline heme detoxification process vital to parasite survival serves as an important drug target. The quinoline antimalarials including chloroquine and amodiaquine owe their antimalarial activity to inhibition of hemozoin formation. Though ...
