We present a new Bayesian methodology to learn the unknown material density of a given sample by inverting its two-dimensional images that are taken with a Scanning Electron Microscope. An image results from a sequence of ...

Core–shell silicon–silicon oxide nanowires are synthesized at low temperatures using inorganic and organic compounds of a tin as a catalyst. In situ simultaneous one-dimensional growth of pristine silicon nanowires (SiNWs) ...

The capacitance-voltage (C-V) characteristics of thin films of ZrO2 deposited by thermal metal-organic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD) have been analyzed. The films were grown at three different temperatures (500, 550 ...

The occurrence of antibiotic resistance of pathogens is a continuing problem for the health care industry. At least 70% of Hospital Acquired Infections (HAIs) are known to be resistant to a minimum of one or two of the ...

The adhesion and material properties of diamond-like carbon (DLC), deposited by the radio-frequency plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition technique, can be significantly affected by the substrate material on which the ...

Growth in the use of organic materials in the fabrication of electronic devices is on the rise. Recently, some attempts have been undertaken to manufacture polymer memory devices. Such devices are fabricated by depositing ...

Polystyrene is a promising organic insulator for use in organic electronic devices owing to its excellent electrical and mechanical characteristics. However, much of the work that has been done in characterising polystyrene ...

Intensive research is currently underway to exploit the highly interesting properties of nano-sized particles and organic molecules for optical, electronic and other applications. Recently, it has been shown that nano-sized ...
