Photoalignment of liquid crystal in photonic crsytal fiber by using azo dye. by Peck, Yvonne.

“…This mechanism can be activated under the irradiation of a green laser light where the MR molecules in the host LC in PCF are photoexcited and undergo a series of transformations. One of the changes that happened is the photoinduced adsorption which resulted in LC realignment, as indicated by the observed shift in the Sagnac interference output minima.…”

Oxygen plasma and cation tuning in Ni2P for water oxidation by Lew, Wai Sing

“…Herein, we developed an exceptionally efficient OER electrocatalyst by using core nickel(II) phosphide Ni2P via a series of cation tuning and surface engineering. Interestingly, remarkable results have been shown from the theoretical calculations made through modifications of selective doping of Vanadium together with plasma treatment using oxygen, which increases the overall number of available states at Fermi-level and inproves the overall adsorption of OH− in the Ni sites. …”

Upconversion nanoparticles-modified aptasensors for highly sensitive mycotoxin detection for food quality and safety by Bahari, H-R, Mousavi Khaneghah, A, Eş, I

“…UCNPs consist of lanthanide ions in ceramic host, and their ladder-like energy levels at f-orbitals have unique photophysical properties, including converting low-energy photons to high-energy emissions by a series of complex processes and offering sharp, low-noise, and sensitive near-infrared to visible detection strategy to enhance the efficacy of aptasensors for novel mycotoxin detection. …”

Glorious autarky? Foreign resources and the British fiscal-military state, 1688-1815 by Graham, A

“…Examining the role that foreign manpower and money played between 1688 and 1815 in this paradigmatic ‘fiscal- military state’ suggests that British state formation can instead be understood in this period as a partnership between the state and what has recently been conceptualised as a European ‘fiscal-military system’, a series of cosmopolitan networks and hubs that moved military resources around Europe. …”

Solidarity as a transformative practice by Cipollitti, PE

I propose a series of diachronic norms to guide solidary agents in navigating power and knowledge asymmetries. …”

Legislating instability: Adam Smith, free banking, and the financial crisis of 1722 by Goodspeed, T

“…In support of previous research on Scottish “free banking,” I find that this absence of legal restrictions on Scottish banking contributed to a proliferation of what Adam Smith derisively referred to as “beggarly bankers” which rendered the Scottish financial system both intensely competitive and remarkably resilient to a series of severe adverse shocks to the small developing economy. …”
