Transparent indium tin oxides (ITO) electrodes were patterned using flash lamp pumped Q-switched Nd: YAG laser ablation technique. The Optical microscopy, atomic force microscopy and energy dispersive x-ray spectrum along with scanning electron microscope analysis shows the depth and width of the ablated area and the elements available in the ablated area.

Kinas utveckling framöver har lika uppenbara som stora implikationer för svenska företag. Nu gäller det att anpassa sig till de föränderliga globala förutsättningarna för att säkerställa långsiktig framgång, skriver Björn Cappelin, biträdande chef, Nationellt kunskapscentrum om Kina, Tommy Shih, docent, Lunds universitet och Fredrik Sjöholm, professor och vd, Institutet för Näringslivsforskning (I
Introduction: Proton radiation therapy (PT) has become a treatment option alongside photon therapy (XRT) for lower-grade gliomas (LGG). In this single-institution retrospective study, we investigate the patient characteristics and treatment outcomes, including pseudo-progression (PsP), for LGG patients selected for PT. Method: Adult patients with grade 2–3 glioma consecutively treated with radioth
Hand osteoarthritis (OA) is a common form of OA, for which education and exercise are considered the first-line treatment. The aim of the present study was to examine pain and perceived hand function in participants following 3 months of digitally delivered first-line treatment for hand OA. Three-hundred-and-seventy-nine of 846 participants with clinical signs and symptoms of hand OA completed the
Purpose: This paper aims to identify critical factors that influence small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) suppliers’ involvement in their customers’ product development and contrast these with the factors identified from the customer perspective. Design/methodology/approach: A multiple case study approach was used, including four companies. Data were collected through 32 semi-structured intervi
Develops the Black feminist concept of reproductive justice further in critical dialogue.Includes case studies and perspectives from Sweden, Nicaragua, Poland, Taiwan.Focuses on the historical and contemporary interplay between the state and the pro- abortion/anti-abortion movements.
Poststructuralist perspectives need to be reconciled with political economic readings of urban globalization. One approach complements the other: the enactment of distantiated circuits and the territorialization of flows occur within existing geographies of uneven development while contingently reproducing or reshaping such spatial conditions of possibility. We argue that broadening the realm of c
This article proposes a dual-band, frequency- and polarization-selective surface. Multiple resonant modes are introduced using the U-shaped resonator with a ground via to achieve dual-band responses and polarization selectivity. Two symmetrically grounded U-shaped resonators are coupled through electrically coupled apertures in a common ground, resulting in a passband with two transmission zeros p
Traditional power reduction techniques such as DVFS or RAPL are challenging to use with web services because they significantly affect the services' latency and throughput. Previous work suggested the use of controllers based on control theory or machine learning to reduce performance degradation under constrained power. However, generating these controllers is challenging as every web service app
The introduction of laminated timber, glulam being an example, allowed many of the disadvantages associated with solid wood to be overcome. The disadvantages in question are mainly those related to the size and shape limits of structural elements made of solid wood and to the large variability in such material properties of solid wood as strength and stiffness.In the present thesis, which comprise
In this letter, we propose a class of efficient, accurate, and general methods for solving state-estimation problems with equality and inequality constraints. The methods are based on recent developments in variable splitting and partially observed Markov processes. We first present the generalized framework based on variable splitting, then develop efficient methods to solve the state-estimation
Low-temperature nanostructured electron-transporting layers (ETLs) for perovskite solar cells are grown by reactive sputtering at 160 °C with thickness in the range 22-76 nm and further stabilization in air at 180 °C to improve the lattice structure and to consequently reduce charge recombination during solar cell operation. In addition, the post-deposition treatment aims at leveling differences a
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury rates in female adolescents are increasing. Irrespective of treatment options, approximately 1/3 will suffer secondary ACL injuries following their return to activity (RTA). Despite this, there are no evidence-informed RTA guidelines to aid clinicians in deciding when this should occur. The first step towards these guidelines is to identify relevant and feas
Background: Biologgers have contributed greatly to studies of animal movement, behaviours and physiology. Accelerometers, among the various on-board sensors of biologgers, have mainly been used for animal behaviour classification and energy expenditure estimation. However, a general principle for the combined sampling duration and frequency for different taxa is lacking. In this study, we evaluate
Flavin-dependent halogenases are known to regioselectively introduce halide substituents into aromatic moieties, for example, the indole ring of tryptophan. The process requires halide salts and oxygen instead of molecular halogen in the chemical halogenation. However, the reduced cofactor flavin adenine dinucleotide (FADH 2
