This study was aimed to investigate the growth process of thin films on a pre-structured surface using different optically transparent materials and their optical properties. As results of conformal deposition of ion beam ...

In this work we propose a solution to some of the problems found in supercomputing environments by combining an extremely efficient, standard, open-source data manager suite with a high-performance data compressor. We do ...

The objective of this prospective, randomized, double-masked study was to compare the contrast sensitivity and quality of vision of patients bilaterally implanted with the following six different presbyopia correcting ...

Optical nanoantennas coherently scatter incident optical radiation, creating a localized electromagnetic near-field imprinted with subwavelength phase distribution, rapidly changing in space. The nanostructuring of phase ...

We perform a detailed theoretical analysis of the far-field narrowing in broad-area edge-emitting semiconductor amplifiers that are electrically injected through contacts periodically modulated in both longitudinal and ...

SMOS radiometric data is used to derive Faraday rotation for a number of orbits combining several scenarios: land, ice and water. Results compare very well with the values theoretically predicted from available ionosphere ...
