Copper complexes of [Cu(phen)(tda)].2H2O(1) and [(phen)2Cu(µ-tda) Cu(phen)](ClO4)2.1.5H2O (2) (where phen is 1,10-phenanthroline and tda2- is thiodiacetate) have been synthesized. Both complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV–Vis spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. Their solid state struct...

Recent studies have confirmed that the multichannel Gabor decomposition represents an excellent tool for image segmentation and boundary detection. Unfortunately, this approach when used for unsupervised image analysis tasks imposes excessive storage requirements due to the nonorthogonality of the basis functions and is computationally highly demanding. In this correspondence, we propose a nove...

Electrical and mechanical properties of gold-para-benzenedimethanethiol (BDMT)-gold molecular junctions with different binding configurations have been investigated using density functional theory (DFT) combined a non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF) approach. We first determined the most stable structure in total electronic energy by geometry optimization junction. then studied how stretchi...

background and objective: although diabetes mellitus is known to be one of the risk factors for dementia but neuropathic changes in the brain of diabetic patients have not been completely revealed. therefore, this research study was done to evaluate structural changes in pyramidal neurons of hippocampal ca1 area of male diabetic rats using golgi-impregnation method. materials and methods: male ...

chronic exposure to lead (pb) affects neural functions in central nervous system (cns) particularly the learning and memory. on the other hand, alteration of calcium level in the cns results in activation of nos. it has been shown that lead enters the neurons through calcium channels and displaces ca2+ from calcium binding proteins such as calmodulin and troponin c thereby affecting calcium-med...

Zirconium alloys were widely used as fuel cladding in nuclear reactors. Stacking fault pyramid (SFP) is an irradiation-induced defect zirconium. In this work, the formation process of SFP from a hexagonal vacancy plate on basal plane studied by molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The results show that, during plate, d...

utopian literature, in terms of content, includes the dream of a world with better and ideal conditions or an image of favorable and yet abstract (nowhere) world. based on a single main motivation, nostalgia and the desire to return to eternal origin and due to the intellectual paradigms form them, this genre has formed certain structures. from the perspective of realizing the origin and having...
