All chemical vapor deposition (CVD) processes rely on the adsorption and decomposition of precursors on a substrate to deposit the desired material. The growth rate of the film is determined by the surface kinetics of the utilized precursor molecules and g ...
The recent discovery of magnetic skyrmion lattices initiated a surge of interest in the scientific community. Several novel phenomena have been shown to emerge from the interaction of conducting electrons with the skyrmion lattice, such as a topological Ha ...
Let M be a quotient of H-2 x ... x H-2 (product of hyperbolic planes) by a uniform lattice of. PSL2(R))(n). We prove that, among metrics of M of prescribed volume, the sum of hyperbolic metrics has minimal volume entropy. ...
In this paper we present the design of a temperature compensated low-tune-voltage-sensitive CMOS ring oscillator in 40nm standard CMOS technology. The oscillator has an overall frequency range from 3.1 GHz to 3.6 GHz. The effect of temperature variations o ...
We calculate the thermomechanical properties of alpha-iron, and in particular its isothermal and adiabatic elastic constants, using first-principles total-energy and lattice-dynamics calculations, minimizing the quasiharmonic vibrational free energy under ...
This study investigates the inviscid, linear spatio-temporal stability of heated, compressible, and incompressible coaxial jet flows. The influence of the temperature ratio and the velocity ratio between the core jet and the bypass stream on the transition ...
This thesis presents results of a research on applications of Brillouin dynamic gratings - distributed reflectors that can be dynamically created in an optical fibre by two optical waves. A basic theory of stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) is introduce ...
