Generalized modal analysis techniques for the characterization and modeling of dissipationless planar waveguide structures and discontinuities encountered in microwave and optical integrated circuits, as well as of quantum waveguide structures and devices, are presented. The frequency-dependent transmission properties of the curved microstrip bend are derived by utilizing a second-order perturbation...
The production of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) haploids by crossing with
H. bulbosum is a widely used tool in breeding and genetics. Certain barley
genotypes have low seed set in this interspecific cross, a phenomenon known
as partial incompatibility. Haploid production efficiency and gamete sampling
are important issues with the...
