An innovative Volumetric Current Meter (VCM) was designed in order to allow quick velocity measurements in open channels. At first, the coefficient of velocity (Cv) of the device was determined through calibration under different water velocities in the laboratory. The measurement performance was verified by measurements performed in similar flows in irrigation channels using an ordinary curren...

In order to minimize the influence of electrode polarization and noise in impedance measurements, especially in the low frequency region, current injection shows several advantages compared to voltage application. Although the existence of a great variety of current sources, they meet our requirements only partially. We developed a voltage controlled current source for active front ends for a w...

The p-i-n carbon nanotube (CNT) devices suffer from low ON/OFF current ratio and small saturation current. In this paper by band bending engineering, we improved the device performance of p-i-n CNT field effect transistors (CNTFET). A triple gate all around structure is proposed to manage the carrier transport along the channel. We called this structure multi-segment gate (MSG) CNTFET. Band to ...

The process of magnetron sputtering of dielectric zinc oxide (ZnO) films at a constant current source, was studied. It is demonstrated that this method of dielectric films deposition makes it possible to obtain high-quality coatings and layers that meet the requirements for creating multilayer diffractive optical elements.

A distributed balanced photodetector with high saturation photocurrent and excellent linearity has been experimentally demonstrated. The maximum linear direct current (dc) photocurrent of 33 mA per branch is equivalent to 66mA in single-ended photodetectors. A setup for investigating the alternating current (ac) linearity of the receiver is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. The receiver...

hemorrhoids is one of the most common diseases of mankind. there are different methods of treatment, but many problems and complications are associated with the use these modalities. dc electrotherapy of hemorrhoids is an alternative method which offsets many of these conditions. two hundred and ten patients with 426 hemorrhoidal tags of different grades underwent dc electrotherapy by a dc gene...

fibrillation is a hazardous phenomenon in cardiac muscle and so any new work towards the understanding of this process is important to the development of new methods in diagnosis and therapy. in this work we have used surface and intra cardiac ecgs of patients with chronic atrial fibrillation (af). by means of the blind source separation (bss) algorithm, which is a well-known method in signal p...
