Large-area flexible transparent conductive electrodes (TCEs) featuring excellent optoelectronic properties (low sheet resistance, Rs, at high transparency, T) are vital for integration in wearable electronics (i.e., antennas, sensors, supercapacitors, etc.). Solution processing printing and coating) of inks yields highly uniform TCEs low cost, holding great promise commercially manufacturing el...

In this work, a new synthesized Y-type zeolite with an Si/Al molar ratio of 2.5 (NaY) was modified with amines, in order to probe the influence of the modification of the adsorbent’s surface on CO2 adsorption. The three selected amines were diethanolamine, tetraethylenepentamine, and 2- methylaminoethanol. The surface nature of NaY was changed after amine modification, which causes a...

The performance of LaMnxNi1-xO3±δ perovskite mixed oxides (x = 0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.9, 1) which were prepared by different methods, the Pechini and sol-gel methods in the oxidation of greenhouse gases, CH4 and CO, has been investigated. All samples were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electr...

We give a new proof for the area law for general 1D gapped systems, which exponentially improves Hastings’ famous result [1]. Specifically, we show that for a chain of d-dimensional spins, governed by a 1D local Hamiltonian with a spectral gap > 0, the entanglement entropy of the ground state with respect to any cut in the chain is upper bounded by O( log 3 d ). Our approach uses the framework ...

introduction the avan cu-fe skarn is located at the southern margin of qaradagh batholith, about 60 km north of tabriz. the skarn-type metasomatic alteration is the result of qaradagh batholith intrusion into the upper cretaceous impure carbonates. the studied area belongs to the central iranian structural zone. in regional scale, the studied area is a part of the zangezour mineralization zone ...

The goal of this paper was to develop and demonstrate practical methods forcomputing sub-pixel areas (SPAs) from coarse-resolution satellite sensor data. Themethods were tested and verified using: (a) global irrigated area map (GIAM) at 10-kmresolution based, primarily, on AVHRR data, and (b) irrigated area map for India at 500-mbased, primarily, on MODIS data. The sub-pixel irrigated areas (SP...

In this paper we analyse the architecture and technologies for monitoring the Neighbourhood Area Network (NAN) of the Smart Grid. We consider the role of sensor networks in providing information about the environment of the NAN, for example to monitor temperature and movement of vehicles and people, which can provide useful information about changes in the loading of the NAN. The two main contr...

Indoor air particulate (PM) exposure is several folds more dangerous than  outdoor air  owing to burning of different materials. Burning biomass emits toxic fumes that are found to be associated with  numerous health problems  such as respiratory diseases, etc. In our study area,  approximately 80% of the population of Chhattisgarh state, central India use biomass  such as wood, and cow dung as...
