New two nano- sized Schiff base complexes [M(L)], where L= 2, 2'-((1E, 1E')-(1, 2 phenylen bis (azanylylidene)) bis (methanylylidene)) bis (4-bromo phenolato) and M=Cu or Zn, (a, b complexes) were synthesized by ultrasonic irradiation. These complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductivity, FT-IR, fluorescence emission, 1H NMR, field emission scanning electron spectroscopy...

This paper presents our new developments of Xsim, a unified regional threshold-voltage-based model for deepsubmicron MOSFETs. New features include complete reformulation with bulk reference, including transverse electric field for effective mobility resulting in source–drain symmetry, charge-based AC model fully consistent with DC without the need for C V data, and inclusion of polydepletion ef...

A literature review on the subject of ambient vibration testing is presented, and a review of a recent study to illustrate state-of-the-art in the application of the ambient vibration method. Reports on testing of full-scale structures by the ambient vibration method began to appear regularly around 1970, with about 3/4 of all contributions devoted to the experiments in buildings, dams, chimney...

Scrapeoff Layer (SOL) data from DIII-D and C-Mod have been acquired and analyzed for radial particle transport based on a particle balance model. This has allowed a detailed comparison for L-mode plasmas. The inferred radial particle flux, Γ⊥(r), is parameterized in terms of diffusive [Deff(r) ≡ Γ⊥(r)/∇n(r)] and convective particle transport [veff(r) ≡ Γ⊥(r)/n(r)]. The magnitude of the inferred...

The most luminous quasars (with bolometric luminosities are & 1047 erg/s) show a high prevalence of CIV λ1549 and [OIII]λλ4959,5007 emission line profiles with strong blueshifts. Blueshifts are interpreted as due to Doppler effect and selective obscuration, and indicate outflows occurring over a wide range of spatial scales. We found evidence in favor of the nuclear origin of the outflows diagn...

We present a model which can explain semiquantitatively a number of the unusual properties of Yb4As3. The structural phase transition at Tc ≃ 300K is described by a band Jahn-Teller effect of correlated electrons and is interpreted as a charge ordering of the Yb ions. The low carrier concentration in the low-temperature phase follows from the strong electron correlations of the 4f-holes on the ...
