Corrosion detection using metal coatings on fiber optic sensors
… been utilized as corrosion sensors by depositing metal coatings to the surface of the sensors. Three types of fiber optic sensors were investigated as candidates for corrosion detection: the extrinsic Fabry-Perot interferometer (EFPI), the absolute extrinsic Fabry-Perot interferometer (AEFPI), and …

Impact of Electrical Contacting Scheme on Performance of InGaN/GaN Schottky Solar Cells
… A key component of a solar cell is a metal contact on the illuminated side of the cell which should efficiently collect carriers. These contacts can be formed using an opaque metal grid/finger pattern. The metal electrode may be used alone or in combination with a broad-area …

Nanophotonic split-ring resonators as dichroics for molecular spectroscopy
The unique optical properties of metallic nanostructures have enabled the creation of a new generation of ultra sensitive biosensors based on vibrational spectroscopy. Through strict engineering of structural morphology, a nanometal’s free electrons can be tuned to resonate at a particular …

Development of a selective substrate metallization process via electorless gel plating
… expansion coefficient very close to silicon. Metallization is used to generate areas for wire and die bonding and to form corrosion barriers for underlying metals. Plating is one metallization process which immerses the component to be coated into a chemical medium. The plating baths usually …

Theoretical Parametric Study of Through-Wall Acoustic Energy Transfer Systems
… that the UAET system is operated in the thickness mode of vibration, i.e., piston-like vibration mode where the transmitter and receiver disks vibrate only in the thickness direction. This poses an issue for disks with aspect ratios between 0.1 and 20 because the piezoelectric transducers …
