Recent models predict that the effect of atmospheric aerosol particles on global temperature
depends in part on b_abs, or on n_2, where b_abs is the aerosol absorption coefficient, and …

A thermoplastic polyolefin elastomer-graft-polylactide (TPO–PLA) was prepared by grafting
polylactide onto maleic anhydride-functionalized TPO (TPO–MAH) in the presence of 4 …

We study the effects of the variation of ferroelectric material properties (thickness,
polarization, and coercivity) on the performance of negative capacitance FETs (NCFETs) …

A new internal multiband mobile phone antenna formed by two printed monopole slots of
different lengths cut at the edge of the system ground plane of the mobile phone is …
