Plasmonics based sensors have been a prominent area of research. Plasmonics based sensors are widely used in bio sensing and many other applications. The basic mechanism in which these sensors operate is that there are metal nano particles that are separated by a very small distance between them. The dimensions of these nano particles is much smaller than the incident light [1]. For sensing pur...

nano technology has a large number of applications in different fields of science and technology. nano particle are the tiny particles which are being used in upcoming technology due to their small size and high capability. the properties of nanoparticles depend largely on their synthesis procedures. there are different methods for the synthesis of nano particles using different conditions. in ...

proper feeding is necessary to have appropriate growth, health and also to increase resistance to inappropriate condition such as stressors and diseases. therefore mineral and vitamin supplements are added to fish diet to improve its growth and health. food supplements have different roles in diet. these cause better food metabolism, higher hardness and strength of bones, better ionic exchanges...

The Class F fly ash has been subjected to high energy ball milling and has been converted into nanostructured material. The nano structured fly ash has been characterized for its particle size by using particle size analyzer, specific surface area with the help of BET surface area apparatus, structure by X-ray diffraction studies and FTIR, SEM and TEM have been used to study particle aggregatio...

this study was conducted to enhance the antimicrobial properties and water absorption of sanitary papers. for this purpose, montmorillonite nano clay with bentonite brand (has a layered structure in which its thickness is nano metric), was processed with homogenizer to achieve a stable colloidal system with nanometer dimensions of particle size. then, different weight levels of raw and homogeni...

In this paper a new marker-based approach is presented for 3D camera pose tracking in indoor Augmented Reality (AR). We propose to combine a circular fiducials detection technique with a particle filter to incrementally compute the camera 3D pose parameters. In order to deal with partial occlusions, we have implemented an efficient method for fitting ellipse to scattered data. So even incomplet...

Salient object detection in videos is challenging because of the competing motion in the background, resulting from camera tracking an object of interest, or motion of objects in the foreground. The authors present a fast method to detect salient video objects using particle filters, which are guided by spatio-temporal saliency maps and colour feature with the ability to quickly recover from fa...

elastomer compound based on nr/br was prepared using different kinds of nano-zno and zno. the effect of zinc oxide as an activator of sulfur cure on the mechanical and morphological properties of the compound was studied. the result of the mechanical properties showed that the tensile strength, elongation-at-break, resilience, and abrasion resistance of the compound prepared by zno (4 phr) are ...

in this research fe-tio2 nanocomposites with different molar ratios of fe/ti were prepared as nano-photocatalyst using a modified sol-gel process at ambient temperature. crystallographic properties of nanocomposites were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd). surface morphology and mean particle size of nanocomposites were specified by field emission scanning electron microscopy (fesem) and ...

Microspheres with controlled nano- and macroporosity are fabricated by template-assisted spray drying. Increasing the porosity of the particle up to 20% improves the rate performance of the particles as shown experimentally and by electrochemical simulations of particle lithiation.
