Characterization of degradation products of polyethylene oxide by pyrolysis mass spectrometry
(Pergamon Press, 1994)The techniques of direct and indirect (evolved gas analysis) pyrolysis MS are used to characterize the thermal degradation products of polyethylene oxide. Using direct pyrolysis MS technique the main degradation process ... -
Complete dissipation of 2, 4, 6-trinitrotoluene by in-vessel composting
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015)We demonstrate complete removal of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) in 15 days using an in-vessel composting system, which is amended with TNT-degrading bacteria strains. A mixture of TNT, food waste, manure, wood chips, soil ... -
Dynamic congestion control in interconnected computer networks
(IEEE, 1988-10)The authors evaluate a window-based congestion control mechanism in an internetwork environment. They also propose and study two dynamic-window congestion-control algorithms. These algorithms provide further control to the ... -
Efficiency and harmonic enhancement trends in GaN-based Gunn diodes: Ensemble Monte Carlo analysis
(American Institute of Physics, 2004)Gallium nitride can offer a high-power alternative for millimeter-wave Gunn oscillators. Hence, an ensemble Monte Carlo-based comprehensive theoretical assessment of efficiency and harmonic enhancement in n-type GaN Gunn ... -
Heat-damage assessment of carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer composites by diffuse reflectance infrared spectroscopy
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2005)Diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform (DRIFT) spectroscopy was used to assess the effects of heat damage on carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer composites. Moisture-saturated graphite-epoxy laminates with a quasi-isotropic ... -
High bandwidth-efficiency solar-blind AlGaN Schottky photodiodes with low dark current
(Pergamon Press, 2005-01)Al0.38Ga0.62N/GaN heterojunction solar-blind Schottky photodetectors with low dark current, high responsivity, and fast pulse response were demonstrated. A five-step microwave compatible fabrication process was utilized ... -
Multimode pumping of optical parametric oscillators
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 1996-02)Calculations suggest that optical parametric oscillators (OPO's) can be efficiently pumped using multimode, divergent pump sources. The influence of pump beam divergence and mode structure upon OPO performance is measured ... -
Nanograined surface shell wall controlled ZnO–ZnS core–shell nanofibers and their shell wall thickness dependent visible photocatalytic properties
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017)The core-shell form of ZnO-ZnS based heterostructural nanofibers (NF) has received increased attention for use as a photocatalyst owing to its potential for outstanding performance under visible irradiation. One viable ... -
A new OMP technique for sparse recovery
(IEEE, 2012)Compressive Sensing (CS) theory details how a sparsely represented signal in a known basis can be reconstructed using less number of measurements. However in reality there is a mismatch between the assumed and the actual ... -
Optimal filtering in fractional Fourier domains
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 1997-05)For time-invariant degradation models and stationary signals and noise, the classical Fourier domain Wiener filter, which can be implemented in O(N log N) time, gives the minimum mean-square-error estimate of the original ... -
Polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane-based hybrid networks obtained via thiol-epoxy click chemistry
(Springer, 2017)A series of hybrid networks based on polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) were prepared by thiol-epoxy click reaction using commercially available octakis-glycidyl-POSS (G-POSS), trimethylolpropane triglycidyl ether, ... -
Rational synthesis of Na and S co-catalyst TiO2-based nanofibers: presence of surface-layered TiS3 shell grains and sulfur-induced defects for efficient visible-light driven photocatalysis
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017)Surface-modified TiO2 nanofibers (NFs) with tunable visible-light photoactive catalysts were synthesised through electrospinning, followed by a sulfidation process. The utilization of sodium-based sulfidation precursors ... -
Reduced recombination and enhanced UV-assisted photocatalysis by highly anisotropic titanates from electrospun TiO2-SiO2 nanostructures
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2014)The surface areas of electrospun fibers/rice grain-shaped nanostructures of TiO2-SiO2 composites were further enhanced after transforming them into thorn or sponge shaped titanates via selective leaching of SiO2, which was ... -
Trap levels in layered semiconductor Ga2SeS
(Elsevier, 2004)Trap levels in nominally undoped Ga2SeS layered crystals have been characterized by thermally stimulated current (TSC) measurements. During the measurements, current was allowed to flow along the c-axis of the crystals in ...
