Improving problem-solving skills is a basic requirement in present education. Logic programming languages, often used in the area of artificial intelligence and expert systems, are very much suitable for developing problemsolving skills. This paper presents a computer-based tool for solving different chemical problems (calculation of quantum numbers, description of electron configurations of at...

objective(s):  medicinal benefits of quantum dots have been proved in recent years but there is little known about their toxicity especially in vivo toxicity. in order to use quantum dots in medical applications, studies ontheir in vivo toxicity is important.  materials and methods:cdse:zns quantum dots were injected in 10, 20, and 40 mg/kg doses to male mice10 days later, mice were sacrificed ...

Communication skills tend to decline with time unless they are regularly recalled and practiced. However, most medical schools still deliver clinical communication training only during pre-clinical years although the clinical environment is considered to be ideal for acquiring and teaching clinical communication. The aim of this article is to review the barriers that prevent communication skill...

in this paper, we investigate variation of the wavelength, intensity and polarization of the self-assembled inas/gaas quantum dots emission by microphotoluminescence spectroscopy at the liquid helium temperature. the microcavity wafer sample is grown by molecular beam epitaxy (mbe) and chemically etched into the micropillar structure (with elliptical cross section - long and short axis 2µm×1.5µ...

OBJECTIVE Health-care communication skills training may be particularly needed in the Arabian Gulf countries because of the variety of cultures within the physician and patient populations. This study describes the implementation and results of a communication skills training program for physicians in Qatar that assessed previous training, and effect of previous training on participants' course...

This article describes a study on the effects of a self-instruction training programme in communication skills for psychology students at the Open University of the Netherlands in comparison to a fully supervised training. We expected both training programmes to increase students’ knowledge and skills, as well as their self-efficacy and motivation concerning the use of skills. Furthermore we ex...

here, the concept of quantum potential that has been illustrated in extended phase space (eps) in previous works is explored for its marginal behavior. unlike in configuration space, different representations of the quantum mechanics can be found in eps when exploiting appropriate canonical transformations. these canonical transformations revealed that there exist several representations in whi...

application of quantum-dot is a promising technology for implementing digital systems at nano-scale.  quantum-dot cellular automata (qca) is a system with low power consumption and a potentially high density and regularity. also, qca supports the new devices with nanotechnology architecture. this technique works based on electron interactions inside quantum-dots leading to emergence of quantum ...
