Synthesis and characterization of gold nanodogbones by the seeded mediated growth method Yeong-Her Wang
In recent years, nanoparticles have continued to attract considerable attention in many scientific fields, such as material research, nano- and molecular electronics and technological applications. ...
Chemical Constituents in Particulate Emissions from an Integrated Iron and Steel Facility Tsai Jiun-Horng
The iron and steel industry produces important materials for automotive, construction and consumer product applications. But it is also one of the most energy-intensive industries and produces significant pollution emissions.. ...
Effects of Insoles and Additional Shock Absorption Foam on the Cushioning Properties of Different Sport Shoes Hung-Ta Chiu
Cushioning property is one of the important functions of a sport shoes. In the structure of sports shoes, the midsole plays the most important role in attenuating the impact shock. Compared to a midsole, ...
Effects of neonatal dexamethasone treatment on hippocampal synaptic function Kuei-Sen Hsu
Severe respiratory distress syndrome is common in very-low-birth-weigh infants, resulting in various degrees of mechanical ventilation and/or oxygen dependency and subsequent onset of chronic lung disease. Synthetic glucocorticoid dexamethasone (DEX) frequently is used as a therapeutic agent to lessen the progression of chronic lung disease in premature infants. ...
Influence of molecular structure and microstructure on device performance of polycrystalline pentacene thin-film transistors Horng-Long Cheng
Today organic semiconductors are being increasingly used as active elements in optoelectronic devices. Large number of organic semiconductors have now demonstrated performance, which makes them applicable in organic thin-film transistor (OTFTs) technologies. ...
Electrokinetic behavior of overlapped electric double layers in nanofluidic channels Kuan-Da Huang
Ionic concentration variation arising in overlapped electric double layers in nanochannels presents different electrokinetic behavior from microchannels. Classical models fail to predict the unique electrokinetic phenomena observed in recent experimental studies in the case where the electric double layers (EDL) overlap in nanochannels. ...
