Multi-component boron coatings on low carbon steel AISI 1018
… quantitative phase analysis, crystalline size, microstrain and lattice parameters of the multi-component boron coatings. The results have shown that adding transition metals into the B-Fe system caused the formation of solid solution of transition-metal borides. The distortion of crystal lattice …

CHARGE TRANSPORT IN ORGANIC AND HYBRID PEROVSKITE FIELD EFFECT TRANSISTORS
… as high as 6.8 cm2/Vs. We find that the microstrain induced in the organic semiconductor layer by the mismatch in the thermal expansion between the consecutive device layers generates trapping states and localize charge carriers, leading to a surprising universal scaling between the …

Tip-up and stabilization of an autonomous four-wheeled vehicle
… an ARM7-based FEZ Domino microcontroller and a MicroStrain 3DM-GX2 inertial measurement unit. Data logged during experimental trials were analyzed in MATLAB to assess the stability and effectiveness of the controller. Experimental results indicate the controller is capable of driving the vehicle …
