We report on a wafer scale fabrication method of a three-dimensional plasmonic metamaterial with strong chiroptical response in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum. The system was comprised of metallic nanoparticles arranged in a helical fashion, with high degree of flexibility over the choice of the underlying material, as well as their geometrical parameters. This resulted in e...

A technique has been developed for fabricating three dimensional "hair brush" electrode arrays from monocrystalline silicon blocks. Arrays consist of a square pattern of 100 penetrating electrodes, with 400 microns interelectrode spacing. Each electrode is 1.5mm in length and tapers from about 100 microns at its base to a sharp point at the tip. The tips of each electrode are coated with platin...

To optimize visual fixation on near targets against translational disturbances, the eyes must move in compliance with geometrical constraints that are related to the distance as well as the speed and direction relative to the target. It is often assumed that the oculomotor system uses the vestibular signals during such movements mainly to stabilize the foveal image irrespective of the periphera...

The Raychaudhuri equation is derived by assuming geometric flow in space–time M of n+1 dimensions. turns into a harmonic oscillator form under suitable transformations. Thereby, relation between geometrical entropy and mean geodesic deviation established. This has connection to chaos theory where the trajectories diverge exponentially. We discuss its application cosmology black holes. Thus, we ...

in this study, geometrical, gravimetrical and frictional properties of four common varieties of iranian canola seeds (namely: slm, hyola, okapi, orient), containing the mean moisture value of 6.5% (w.b.) were investigated. geometrical and gravimetrical properties included length, diameter, geometric mean diameter, sphericity, thousand seed mass, volume, true density, bulk density and porosity. ...

We present the results of multiband observations blazar S5 0716+714 intra-night variability performed during 23 nights in period from 04.2014 through 04.2015. The bluer-when-brighter trend is detected both intra- and inter-night data. assume that jet component crossing region where medium becomes transparent to optical radiation forms almost all emission 0716+714. Deviations some parts general ...
