Low-profile and end-fire antennas for airborne applications by Chen, Zhuozhu

“…For example, the performance of log-periodic, Yagi-Uda and Vivaldi antennas is very sensitive to the conducting ground-plane on which these antennas are mounted. H-plane horn antennas can hardly achieve wide bandwidth and maintain low profile simultaneously. …”

Magneto-photoconductivity of three dimensional topological insulator bismuth telluride by Cao, Bingchen, Eginligil, Mustafa, Yu, Ting

“…Here, we report on low temperature magneto-photoconductivity, up to 7 T, of two metallic bismuth telluride topological insulator samples with 68 and 110 nm thicknesses excited by 2.33 eV photon energy along the magnetic field perpendicular to the sample plane. At 4 K, both samples exhibit negative magneto-photoconductance below 4 T, which is as a result of weak-antilocalization of Dirac fermions similar to the previous observations in electrical transport. …”

Design of a conformal end-fire array antenna by Wang, Xin Xin

“…Based on the understanding of previous design methodology for a wideband and low-profile H-plane ridged SIW horn antenna, we further explore the possibility of advanced low-profile horn antenna designs to provide better performance of larger bandwidth, lower VSWR, and better radiation pattern. …”

PRIVATE GAMES / by James Patterson, author 619115, Sullivan, Mark, author 505729

“…Coming so soon after loss of friends and colleagues in a fatal plane crash, Marshall's murder is an almost intolerable blow to Knight, and it soon becomes clear that not Marshall--but the Games themselves-- are the killer's number one target.…”

Automated multisensor polyhedral model acquisition by Ortin, D, Montiel, JMM, Zisserman, A

“…The vision algorithms are then able to compute a very accurate registration (via a plane to plane homography) which is used to segment the model into planar facets, and to improve the estimate of the model and sensor position. …”

Pattern-reconfigurable water horn antenna by Ren, Zhen, Qi, Shi-Shan, Wu, Wen, Shen, Zhongxiang

“…Therefore, the proposed water horn antenna can operate in two states: H-plane horn state and leaky-wave state, resulting in different radiation patterns. …”

Design and implementation of a non-iterative division circuit by Zhang, Dawei

“…To simplify the computation, and hence hardware complexity, each strip of the curved surface is then represented by a flat plane. Linear programming is used to find the flat plane with best fit to the curved surface, i.e., minimum difference between the curved surface and the fitted plane (minimum error). …”

Electronic Properties of Fluoride and Half–fluoride Superlattices KZnF3/KAgF3 and SrTiO3/KAgF3 by Yang, Xiaoping, Su, Haibin

“…While within half–fluoride SrTiO3/KAgF3, out–of–plane electronic reconstruction results in electron doping of AgF2 plane and antiferromagnetic state instability, and the Fermi surface shape presents considerable similarity to that in HgBaCuO4. …”

In situ nanoscopy of single-grain nanomorphology and ultrafast carrier dynamics in metal halide perovskites by Zizlsperger, M, Nerreter, S, Yuan, Q, Lohmann, KB, Sandner, F, Schiegl, F, Meineke, C, Gerasimenko, YA, Herz, LM, Siday, T, Huber, MA, Johnston, MB, Huber, R

“…The record-breaking efficiencies of metal halide perovskite solar cells have been linked to effective charge-carrier diffusion, yet the exact nature of charge-carrier out-of-plane transport remains notoriously difficult to explain. …”

A UHF omni-directional RFID tag antenna by Tan, Kevin Kaiwen.
