Smartphone application in determining the reflection point for line-of-sight wireless systems by Chua, Han Jie.

“…With the increasing popularity of smart phone usage, it is advantages to develop smartphone applications that can aids and arouse interest of the students studying wireless communication module.In a wireless system where multi path propagation occurs, the reflection point in a Line of Sight System is of great importance and great interest as the position of the reflection point willl affects the quality of the signal received.In this project, a smart phone application using the Android 2.2 OS was developed to correlate the GPS reading of the user location, to retrieve user various values selection.The program used two reflection point calculation methods namely the Bisection Algorithm method and Solving the Cubic Equation method to calculate thereflection point position.The reflection point will be potrayed onto a graphical map upon calculation.…”

Spin-orbit torque magnetization switching in Co/Pt multilayers for multistate memory and logic devices by Lim, Gerard Joseph

“…It has proven to be a serious contender in emerging memory technology due to its intrinsic non-volatility, low power dissipation, and high speed. The spin degree of freedom further opens opportunities that exploit its ultrafast dynamics and spin transport. …”

Programmable spin–orbit-torque logic device with integrated bipolar bias field for chirality control by Lim, Gerard Joseph, Chua Daniel, Gan Weiliang, Murapaka Chandrasekhar, Lew Wen Siang

“…While several field-free spin–orbit torque (SOT)-driven logic devices have been proposed, their operation typically requires additional initialization or reset pulses, the exchange-coupled canted spins reduce both anomalous Hall sign-to-noise ratio as well as thermal stability of the ferromagnetic layer, and device-to-device variation in exchange coupling strength is expected. …”

Janus particle preparation through UV-induced partial photodegradation of spin-coated particle films by Tan, Jasmine Si Jia, Wong, Chong Hui, Chen, Zhong

“…Photocatalytic titanium dioxide particles prefunctionalized with a surface coating were assembled as particle films via spin-coating on a substrate. The particle films were placed directly under an ultraviolet light source, which induced the photodegradation of the surface coating only on the particle surfaces exposed to the light. …”

The electronic spin state of diradicals obtained from the nuclear perspective: the strange case of Chichibabin radicals by Moise, G, Fernández, S, Joll, K, Vaganov, MV, García, F, Timmel, CR, Peña, D, Ardavan, A

“…With a view towards the development of molecular spintronics, non-linear optics, and qubits, a great amount of research effort aims to establish the factors which govern the spin classification of diradicals. Electron spin resonance (ESR) is an indispensable tool for such research. …”

Cavity-length optimization for high energy pulse generation in a long cavity passively mode-locked all-fiber ring laser by Shum, Perry Ping, Wu, Kan, Wong, Jia Haur, Aditya, Sheel, Li, Nanxi, Xue, Jin, Ouyang, Chunmei

“…In order to achieve higher pulse energy in a passively mode-locked fiber ring laser, a long cavity length is commonly implemented. However, a long cavity operating in the anomalous dispersion regime also leads to pulse broadening, which reduces the average pulse power. …”
