This thesis is focused on the formation of highly ordered mesoporous structures with adjustable orientation within the ordered, vertical channels of anodic alumina membranes (AAMs) under the conditions of the ‘evaporation-induced self-assembly’ (EISA) method. It is shown that three of the most often used structure directing agents (CTAB, Pluronic123 and Brij56) can be employed for the synthesis...

In this paper, close and open loop hexagonal resonator filter, multiplexer of high selectively and compact size are presented. The tri-band multiplexer topology is based on the hexagonal close loop resonators of different size which capacitive coupled from a single input. The filter and multiplexer have been designed on substrate dielectric constant εr = 10.2 and thickness = 0.635 mm. The hexag...

Blade configuration of nanofluids has been proven to perform much better than dispersed configuration for some heat conduction systems. The analytical analysis and numerical calculation are made for the cylinder--shaped and regular-rectangular-prism--shaped building blocks of the blade-configured heat conduction systems (using nanofluids as the heat conduction media) to find the optimal cross-s...

A single phased Y-type hexagonal ferrite Sr2Co1.7Mg0.3Fe11.2Sn0.4Zn0.4O22 was synthesized by the sol–gel auto combustion method. Structural and magnetic properties of this composition of Y-type hexagonal ferrite have been investigated. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns confirm single phase Y-type hexagonal ferrite and various parameters such as lattice constants and cell volume have been cal...

The existence of Dirac cones in the band structure of two-dimensional materials accompanied by unprecedented electronic properties is considered to be a unique feature of graphene related to its hexagonal symmetry. Here, we present other two-dimensional carbon materials, graphynes, that also possess Dirac cones according to first-principles electronic structure calculations. One of these materi...

Annelid erythrocruorins are extracellular respiratory complexes assembled from 180 subunits into hexagonal bilayers. Cryo-electron microscopic experiments have identified two different architectural classes. In one, designated type I, the vertices of the two hexagonal layers are partially staggered, with one hexagonal layer rotated by about 16 degrees relative to the other layer, whereas in the...

Abstract On-demand generation and reshaping of arrays focused laser beams is highly desired in many areas science technology. In this work, we present a versatile approach for beam structuring the focal plane lens by triple mixing square and/or hexagonal optical vortex lattices (OVLs). artificial far field input Gaussian reshaped into ordered bright with flat phase profiles. This remarkable, si...

It is shown that it is possible to obtain complete planar phononic bandgaps in square and hexagonal (honeycomb) lattice phononic crystals formed by etching a periodic array of circular holes in a thin silicon plate (or membrane). Also, better bandgap properties are obtained using the hexagonal lattice structure; and, with practical structure sizes, it is possible-to-obtain a gap-to-midgap ratio...
