Cloud detection and attenuation modelling in tropical region by Yuan, Feng

“…It is noted that with the introduction of the use of PWV data from GPS (Global Positioning System), higher temporal resolution of cloud attenuation can be achieved comparing to the existing ITU-R cloud attenuation model. In this thesis, we have proposed a model to detect cloud vertical structure, studied and detect the melting layer for rain cloud, done statistical analysis of cloud attenuation on Ka-band satellite link and also proposed a method for cloud attenuation calculation in tropical region. …”

Single-crystal growth of organic semiconductors by Jiang, Hui, Kloc, Christian

“…Organic single crystals are an established part of the emerging field of organic optoelectronics, because they provide an ideal platform for the studies of the intrinsic physical properties of organic semiconductors. As organic crystals have low melting temperatures and high vapor pressures and are soluble in numerous organic solvents, both solution and gas-phase methods can be used for crystal growth. …”
