We propose a method to control the polarization of light by the electro-optic effect in periodically poled lithium niobate. A single integrated chip of Z-cut lithium niobate having two sections is used. The first section is not periodically poled, whereas the second section is. With an electric field applied along the Z axis of the first section and another electric field applied along the Y ax...

in this study, farm level technical efficiency (te) and its determinants were investigated. a stochastic cobb-douglas (cd) production frontier was used to provide estimates of input-oriented te for a sample of 100 rain fed farms in two palestinian governorates. empirical findings showed that the estimated te of the farms in the pooled sample ranged from 35.7 to 95.6%, with a mean value of 72.2%...

Recently, in a previous study, we experimentally showed the existence of an optimal injected steam mass flow rate, per unit length, ϕopt, which produces maximal recovery condensate preformed chamber with elliptical cross section horizontal semi-major axis. Mutatis mutandis, this work, present experimental studies chambers: one and other circular. In both cases, also found unique values. These c...

Most Irish traditional folk dance music contains two musical themes; the tune begins with one musical theme which is usually repeated, then progresses to another theme with similar musical structure and motives, which is usually also repeated. The first section is typically called the A section while the second is called the B section. Our goal is to understand, at a quantitative level, the mus...
