The various solution-based processes, spin coating, inkjet printing, microreactor assisted nanoparticle deposition (MANDTM) and spin-successive ionic layer absorption and reaction (Spin-SILAR) were used to demonstrate thin film electronics and anti-reflective coatings. Several aspects of thin film transistors (TFTs) were tested including a range of temperatures, annealing atmosphere, and deposition methods....
The continuous microreactor-assisted solution deposition (MASD) process was used for the deposition of CdS thin films on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) glass. The MASD system, including a T-junction micromixer and a microchannel heat exchanger is capable of isolating the homogeneous particle precipitation from the heterogeneous surface reaction. The results show...
This study was an experimental investigation of two methods of
teaching students the cognitive knowledge and psychomotor skills pertaining
to the automobile brake system. The methods investigated
were the experimental individualized learning system and the traditional
group-lecture and demonstration.
Experimental Design and Procedure
The experiment, conducted during the spring term...
The fate of hexachlorophene, a widely used bactericide, was
investigated using both intact male rats and rabbits and liver microsomes
from male rats. Hexachlorophene administered intraperitoneally
was found to be rapidly absorbed and distributed to all the
tissues of the animals. Excretion of the chemical in both species
occurred slowly,...
Changes in the type and amount of plant inputs can occur gradually, as with succession, or rapidly, as with harvesting or wildfire. With global change it is anticipated that both gradual and immediate scenarios will occur at increasing frequency. Changes in vegetation inputs alter the quality and quantity of soil...
The genus Deraeocoris Kirschbaum of western America north of
Mexico was revised. Approximately 10,000 specimens from the Nearctic
Region were examined. Taxonomic characters used by previous authors
were reevaluated. In addition to the male parameres, the male vesica
and the female posterior wall of the bursa copulatrix and sclerotized
rings...
The high cost of content-addressed memories (CAM) can be reduced
significantly by using a circulating memory system. With the
circulating system, comparison logic is shared by many memory locations
to allow a reduction in cost.
Three data organizations are described and evaluated and one
is chosen as the best for...
