Silver nanoplates with an extremely high aspect ratio (up to over 400) and a widely tunable surface plasmon resonance (SPR) band have been successfully synthesized by combining the concepts of selective ligand adhesion and seeded growth. Citrate ligands are used as the sole surfactant to effectively...
We also chose a bottom-to-top thickness ratio of r = 10 for this particular case. Fig. M541 shows the field dependent evolution of the mx, my magnetization components of the top as well as bottom Co layers for intralayer coupling strengths j = 0, 0.5 and 1, as well as ...
Revenues from the resale of end-of-lease vehicles remained at a high level, but were lower than previous year as used car prices started to normalize. We expect this trend to continue in 2024, leading to a lower result from off-lease vehicles. At 0.18%, the credit loss ratio remained at...
For TEM and EDX analysis, the generated particles were sampled using a lacey carbon copper grid (S166 Lacey Carbon Film 200 Mesh Cu, Agar Scientific Ltd.) by using a low-pressure impactor. The morphology of the nanoparticles was analyzed by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM,...
The proximity sensor measures reflected light intensity with a high degree of precision and excellent ambient light rejection. The NOA3315 enables a proximity sensor system with a 16:1 programmable LED drive current range and a 30 dB overall proximity detection range. The dual ambient light sensors...
This study was planned to provide approximately 80% power to detect a hazard ratio of 0.36 in the time to discontinuation due to adverse events over the 24-week active treatment phase of the study. Secondary efficacy outcomes for the PANSS total and subscores were analyzed using the mixed-...
As seen in the figure, the metallic matrix, the chromium sulfides and the carbides forming hard phases similarly have high ratios of H/E linked to low friction. On the other hand, silver showed the lowest H3/E2 ratio and the lowest resistance to plastic deformation, thus making possible the...
Smaller Ag nanoparticles with large surface-to-volume ratio can provide enough energy to stimulate grain boundaries and lattice diffusion, which can form a large, sintered grain size and high-density sintered structures at high temperature stage. In addition, the other three higher boiling point ...
Simulations for a thin Pd-Ag MR show that (i) CO2 and CH4 conversions and H2 yield increase with the feed temperature; (ii) H2 yield and average rate of coke formation increase for higher pressures; and (iii) increasing CH4/CO2 feed molar ratio leads to higher H2/CO ratios, but lower...
The coinsurance clause will only be in effect at the event ofpropertyloss. During a loss, the insurance limit and the required amount to be used for insurance based on the coinsurance percentage are compared and must have a ratio equal to or greater than one, else, a penalty will be given...
