Gold nanowires containing protein-modified poly(pyrrole) (Ppy) junctions were synthesized electrochemically using porous aluminum oxide as a template. The...
We show the formation of ultraslow bright and dark optical solitons in a lifetime-broadened three-state atomic system under Raman excitation. We also discuss...
In mobile ad-hoc network environments where the network topology is expected to change considerably, providing reliable video communications is a challenging...

Interstellar glycolalsehyde (CHd2^OHCHO) has been detected with the 100m Green Bank Telescope (GBT) toward the star-forming region Sagittarius B2(N) by means of...
A number of modeling and simulation tools have been developed and more are being developed for emergency response applications. Each of these tools has focused...
In most cases, the effort required to develop a meaningful simulation for a small machine shop exceeds the resources available. Machine shops typically do not...

Scanning Capacitance Microscopy (SCM) is based on metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) theory. However, instead of the standard 100 kHz to 1 MHz signal used in...
aptive multilevel methods are methods for solving partial differential equations that combine adaptive grid refinement with multigrid solution techniques. These...
A simulator for quantum information systems cannot be both general, that is, easily used for every possible system, and efficient. Therefore, some systems will...
