Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDesign and Optimization of a 1.55 µm Waveguide Based on Silicon Planar Photonic CrystalsR. Bchir, A. Bardaoui, M. Machhout et al.Background: Silicon based Planar Photonic Crystals (PPC) are used for the design of a 1.55 µm waveguide. Line defects are then formed in the PPC structures, by removing rows of holes, to obtain a Planar Photonic Crystal Waveguide (PPCW). Objective: First, we varied the thickness of the Silicon slab and the pore radius in order to obtain optimum design parameters … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 7,472 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Enhancement Strategy of Ultra-Thin CIGS Solar CellsSoumaïla Ouédraogo, Boureima Traoré, Marcel Bawindsom Kébré et al.In this article, numerical modeling and simulation using SCAPS-1D software has been used to explore the performance of CIGS-based solar cells when some parameters are modified. Starting from a baseline model that rigorously reproduces the experimental results, the absorber properties such as defect density, band-gap and acceptor concentration have been investigated and the optimal values to obtain high-efficiency CIGS-base solar … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 24 Dec 2020 · 6,952 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrostrip Bandpass Filter with Wide Stopband and High Out-of-Band RejectionMohamad Farhat, Bal Virdee, Nader H. GhareebThis paper presents a compact microstrip bandpass filter exhibiting a wide stopband, high selectivity and easily tunable passband. The filter comprises of asymmetric resonator structures, which are interconnected by an inter-digital capacitor to enable the realization of a wide bandwidth with high rejection level. High selectivity and easily tunable passband are obtained by optimizing the parameters of the interdigital capacitor. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 28 Dec 2019 · 8,795 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptical and Structure Analysis of ZnO:Al FilmNeilo Marcos Trindade, Michel Chaves, José Roberto Ribeiro Bortoleto et al.ZnO and ZnO:Al are wide-bandgap semiconductors which have many applications, mainly as transparent conducting films. Thin films of these compounds were deposited onto glass and silicon substrates by RF magnetron sputtering for the investigation of structural and optical characteristics. The XRD results show that the films present wurtzite structure. The formation of a polycrystalline film having a preferential crystallographic orientation … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 5 Oct 2017 · 7,855 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Linear Array Antenna Based on UWB Slot AntennaFaten Ben Ghenaya, Ridha Ghayoula, Ali GharsallahThis paper introduces the novel Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) antennas for UWB applications. We used two different structures, the first is fed by micro-strip line and the second is a compact coplanar waveguide fed planar slot antenna. These designs are a small on planar antenna. The substrate used is FR4 that have the characteristics following: Permittivity εr = 4.4 Impulse Radio … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 25 Mar 2016 · 7,431 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of Pass Band Filter in Hybrid Architecture Planar/Non-Radiative Dielectric Waveguide Integration TechnologyGharssallah Ali, Harizi HanenProblem statement: The expansion of RF, microwave and millimeter devices has revolutionized today’s ommunication and sensor systems. Low-cost, high-performance and mass producible millimeter wave technologies are vital for commercial broadband systems. Challenging issues are commonly faced in the design of low-loss integrated circuits for example high-Q band pass filter, which the planar technique is fundamentally limited in performance. Approach: In … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 10 · 10 Aug 2012 · 7,092 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUse of Enterobacterial Repetitive Intergenic Consensus PCR in Detecting Target(s) of Hapalindole-T, From a Cyanobacterium, in Escherichia Coli: In Silico ValidationManoj K. Tripathi, Maheep Kumar, Vinay K. Singh et al.Problem statement: Identification of newer biomolecule as well as targets are a rising concern because of increasing drug resistance in bacteria. We have isolated a broad spectrum antibiotic biomolecule Hapalindole-T from a cyanobacterium, Fisherella sp. growing on local Azadirachta indica tree bark. A model bacterium E. coli was screened spontaneously for Hap-T resistance. These resistant strains of E. coli were … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 3 Mar 2012 · 13,777 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuantum Mechanical Calculation of the Optical Absorption of Silver and Gold Nanoparticles by Density Functional TheoryElham Gharibshahi, Elias SaionProblem statement: Metal nanoparticles confine the motion of conduction electrons and exhibit a strong optical absorption of electromagnetic radiation in the UV-vis-NIR region. The absorption is classically derived from the collective oscillations of free electrons in a metallic nanostructure as a consequence of incident electromagnetic radiation polarizing the particle optically embedded in a dielectric matrix. These oscillations, known as the … …Physics International, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 16,181 accessesView PDFCite
