(ii) At what distance from P does the collision occur? (iii)Show the motion of both cars on the same speed-time graph. 2. A man travelling North at 20 m/s finds that the wind appears to blow from the West. When he travels due West at 8.45 m/s the wind appears to blow from the South West. (i) Calculate the velocity of the wind. (ii) If the man travelled in a direction 300 North of West at 8 m/s from what direction would the wind appear to blow? 3. A particle is projected with speed u at an angle α to the horizontal. The range of the particle of the horizontal plane through the point of projection is R. (i) Show that R is a maximum when α = 450. u2 (ii) If R = , find the two possible values of α. 2g (iii)If the ratio of the greatest height to the range is 2:5, find α. 4. State the laws governing the oblique collision of elastic spheres. A smooth sphere A, of mass m, moving with speed 0.6 m/s, impinges obliquely on a smooth sphere B, of mass 2m, which is at rest. After the collision A is found to move with speed 0.2 m/s in a direction at right angles to its original direction. (i) Find the direction of A before impact. (ii) Find the coefficient of restitution. (iii)Show that the loss of kinetic energy, as a result of the impact, is 0.06m. 5. A wedge of mass 8 kg can slide freely on a smooth horizontal table. On one face inclined at an angle of 300 to the horizontal, is placed a particle of mass 4 kg and on the other face, inclined at an angle 600 to the horizontal, is placed a particle of mass 6 kg. If both faces of the wedge are smooth (i) Show on separate diagrams the forces acting on each mass. g (ii) Show that when the particles are released from rest, the acceleration of the wedge is . 9 3 6. Define Simple Harmonic Motion. A mass of 4 kg suspended by a light spiral extends it 8 cm when in equilibrium. A second mass of 2 kg is attached to the first without moving it and the combined mass is then released from rest. (i) Prove that the motion is simple harmonic. (ii) Find the periodic time of the ensuing motion. (iii)Find the maximum velocity of the resulting motion. 7. A particle of mass 10 kg is placed on a rough inclined plane. The least force acting up along the plane which will prevent the particle slipping down the plane is 19.6 N. The least force acting up along the plane which will make the particle slip upwards is 98 N. (i) Find the inclination of the plane. (ii) Show that the coefficient of friction is ½. (iii)Find the least force required to move the particle up the plane. The least force need not necessarily be parallel to the plane. 8.

(b) A circular sheet of cardboard of radius r rotates freely in its own plane, which is vertical, about a horizontal pin. At what distance from the centre should the pin be stuck to make the period of small oscillation a minimum? 9. (a) A cube of side 1m is filled to a height x m with water and a second liquid of relative density 0.8, which does not mix with water, occupies the remainder of the cube. The thrust on each vertical side due to the water is equal to the thrust due to the other liquid. Find x.

Just hand me my pitchfork and torch.
What you are describing there is a "send me a cheque by mail" button. It is arguably better in the sense that all of the money (barring postage) goes where it intends, but it loses a lot by being a much more decisive, time-consuming and complex act.

I like it!
If you like the idea, dont forget to vote on ubuntu brainstorm! Maybe you have a better solution than Flattr? http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/25383/
Just to comment the latest incidents concerning flattr and Ubuntu. Blogs that include flattr-buttons were excluded from the German Ubuntu planet by the team of ubuntuusers.de as it's seen as commercial advertisement which is not allow following the rules of the planet.
Now there is discussion on this decision and the general use of flattr for FOSS and blogs going on.
What about the other Ubuntu communities? Any talk on flattr?
I was looking for some software to support this month and found that phpMyAdmin is using Flattr too. Cool. Flattered!
I just read an interesting article on flattr.
It was written by a german blogger (might be the guy who makes most money with flattr: 890e in August) who had a talk with the flattr guys.
They have a "referral system". If a page (X) includes a flattr button for somebody else (Y), the page itself gets a revenu when somebody flattrs Y. And most interesting: This money for X is not taken from the flattr-amount of Y but of the 10% share of flattr.
This system could be transfered to the Software Center or other pages as launchpad etc.
They also added the possibility to add funds through moneybookers, so you do not longer need paypal.
I think they're on a good way.
Actually the flattr-guys themselfes are working on this option to create a "flattr-subscription".

1964 – 2015 The big changes of the Skipper Doll.
1964 – 2015 Skipper Roberts™
The big changes of the Skipper Doll was her size.
1964 When she first came out, she was 9.25 inches in height.
In 1971, apart of the Sun Set line of dolls, Skipper became Malibu Skipper with a suntanned skin and twist 'n turn waist. She had a new look, much like the Living Skipper of 1970, but with fuller lips.
In 1975, Growing Up Skipper was released. When you swiveled the doll's arm, she grew small breasts on her rubber chest and grew taller in height.
In 1979 Skipper's entire appearance changed. She was advertised as "Super Teen Skipper." She had a new body mold which included small permanent breasts, and a different head mold that made her look slightly older In 1985, Hot Stuff Skipper was released, which had another new head mold that included the addition of dimples and a longer face.
Skipper changed again in 1988 with the release of Teen Fun Skipper. Her new body mold was taller and more graceful. Her waist was more flexible and her breasts were slightly bigger. Her eyes were also enlarged, giving her a cartoon-like look. At this stage she appeared to be somewhere between 13 to 15 years old. 1995 and later, Skipper had a new head mold with smaller eyes in a Pizza Party line, but with the same body mold. Many collectors believe that the 'Pizza Party' head mold was the most popular, if not the prettiest, version of Skipper. Dolls with the 'Pizza Party' Skipper head mold and the 1960s head mold are the most sought after Skipper dolls by collectors.
Finally, in 1997, Teen Skipper was introduced. She again had a new body mold and was now almost as tall as her sister Barbie. This was mostly because of her legs, which were now long and lanky. Most notable of all, however, was Skipper's new face mold. She no longer looked like a child, but more like a girl on the brink of becoming a woman, appearing to be about 16 years of age.
In 1994, the first vintage reproduction Skipper was produced specifically for collectors to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Skipper's introduction. Instead of the usual vinyl, the dolls were made of porcelain. She wore a blue reproduction dress from 1965, known then as "Happy Birthday." In 2014 came the same set in vinyl, Blonde and Brunette. In 2007, Mattel released their second vintage reproduction Skipper doll, this time sold in a gift set along with a reproduction of a vintage swirl ponytail Barbie doll. Knitting Pretty Barbie & Skipper.
In 2009, Skipper made a reappearance as part of a camping line of dolls. She retained the same face mold as the later Skipper dolls, albeit with a side glance. She also sported blonde hair with purple highlights. Another notable feature of the doll was her noticeable height decrease, which is more like the Skipper dolls from the late-80's and early-90's. She also shares the same body mold that many of the High School Musical dolls have. In 2009, Target released an exclusive gift set for the Barbie "I Can Be…" bride line, in which Skipper appeared as a bridesmaid along with Kelly, with Barbie and Ken as the bride and groom. This doll features the same height and body mold as the previous camping doll, with a forward glance. The doll is not sold separately and can only be found in the Target gift set.
The newest Skipper dolls, as of 2010 (and later), seem to be about 15-17 years old with brown hair and a blue, pink , purple or red streak. Mattel has also given all of the sisters new personalities, with Skipper loving modern technology sometimes coming with a small Ipod. In the summer of 2015 there will be a new Skipper "The Great Puppy Adventure". She has long thick dark brown hair with gold blonde highlights.

Look in the gallery (click on picture): Under the name of each doll is the name of the designer.
Vogue Italia and Mattel have involved ten "success story" brands and ten promising talents asking them to dress Barbie, designing bespoke outfits that express at best the brand's philosophy and at the same time embellish the most fashionable of dolls.
Each Barbie doll of the "Global Beauty" project was assigned a designer that will expressly create an ensemble worth of a true Fashionista, with hair and makeup matching the outfit. Browse the gallery to find out the Barbie doll-designer combinations.
The Barbie dolls and the outfits expressly designed for them will be on show at Palazzo Morando in September during Milan Fashion Week: they will be posing alongside the creations by the designers taking part in the Who is on Next? and Vogue Talents project.

Robin Stewart was first discovered at the tender age of eleven, by a Disney scout in London. As a child star, he appeared with many of the world's great actors, including Richard Burton, Julie Andrews, Sir Alec Guinness and Ingrid Bergman. He later became a household name in Britain and Australia when he co-starred as Sid James' attractive and wayward son, Mike Abbott, in the 1970's British series Bless This House. The series ran from 1971-1976, and allowed Stewart to make the transition from a child-star to a TV heartthrob.
Moves to New Zealand and Australia saw Stewart's career take off in many directions – including appearances in the 1980s soap Sons and Daughters and the ABC TV series, Macarthur, in which he played the title role. Throughout his life Stewart has had an enduring affinity with horses; working with them, breeding them and competing in both show jumping and endurance, and has tried his hand at team-penning.
Robin and his wife Bertie Daler, currently divide their time between Kyogle in North East New South Wales, and Dorset in the United Kingdom.
A Life In The Wild by Robin Stewart
The horses in this extraordinary book are the poetry in motion that charts an old man's life of love, loss and longing, so that in the end the horse and human are almost interchangeable. Gradually, as the man travels his inward journey, he answers for himself – with help from the magnificent companions at his side – life's greatest question – who he really is.

Investigators converged on a home in Indiana owned by longtime Subway spokesman Jared Fogle on Tuesday in a probe that authorities have declined to discuss publicly.
CNN affiliates WTHR and WXIN recorded video of investigators outside a home in Zionsville, just north of Indianapolis. Records from the Boone County treasurer's office show Fogle owns the property.
FBI Special Agent Wendy Osborne said the agency is "conducting investigative activity in the area," but she didn't confirm it was at Fogle's home.
The nature of the investigation "can't be discussed at this time," she said.
U.S. Attorney's office spokesman Tim Horty said he couldn't confirm or deny an investigation.
Calls to Subway were not immediately returned.
Fogle soared to fame in 2000 when the sandwich chain released a commercial centered on his claims that he lost about 245 pounds in a year as an Indiana University student, thanks in part to exercise and a simpler diet involving Subway subs.
He served as a Subway spokesman in ensuing years. In 2013, he told CNN's "Piers Morgan Live" that he traveled almost 200 days a year for his job with Subway, and that he still was focused on keeping weight off.
"I don't eat (Subway) every single day anymore. (It's) in moderation. I tell you, I kept the weight off for 15 years. I still probably average eating it three or four days a week," he said.

Capitol Theater at Clearwater, Florida: For anyone who's followed the labyrinthine soap opera that is Crosby Stills Nash and Young, the song "Cowboy Movie" – from David Crosby's If I Could Only Remember My Name – has particular resonance.
Watch David Crosby in concert for free on the Yahoo Screen app Wednesday, June 17th, 8:05pm ET.
By Michael Hamad - courtesy The Hartford Courant
You'd never wish insomnia upon anyone. But when singer-songwriter David Crosby can't sleep, he jumps on Twitter and answers questions from fans, and that's a win for us.
Last fall, Neil Young told an audience that Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young "will never tour again, ever," with David Crosby later confirming on Twitter that he and Young had a falling out.
But three out of four ain't bad, especially since David Crosby, Stephen Stills and Graham Nash were the core trio to begin with. So when tickets for Crosby, Stills and Nash's concert at the Riverside Theater Sunday first went on sale, they were gone within the weekend.
Legendary singer-songwriter David Crosby has announced a series of intimate solo acoustic tour dates for June and July, where he will perform with only his voice and guitar. The shows will feature repertoire spanning Crosby's entire career, including new songs from his critically-acclaimed 2014 solo album Croz, and his 1971 solo debut If I Could Only Remember My Name, as well as selections from The B
Jackson Browne, David Crosby & Graham Nash, Tom Morello, Dennis Haysbert, Catherine Keener, Martin Sheen, and Alfre Woodard to perform April 8, 2015, at the Fonda Theatre in Los Angeles
Crosby, Stills & Nash have announced European tour dates for September and October of 2015. The tour kicks off on September 12 in London, UK with two nights at Eventim Apollo, and will wrap up on October 11 at Spektrum in Oslo, Norway.
Please join Crosby - Nash and their band for an intimate eveningat the beautiful Nourse Theatre in San Francisco.Tickets are on sale now.Ticket prices are $50 - $125 All seats are reserved.A very limited amount of VIP tickets are available.These are $500 each and include a front row center orchestra seat, a collectable laminate pass, a meet & greet reception after the show and a limited edition event poster.

very comfortable
excellent insoles, will buy more
By geezer
From Greenville, South Carolina
Good quality
Look to be of higher quality than the orthodics I bought from a podiatrist and for a fraction of the price. They work great in work shoes and provide good support for those of us who work on our feet.
By Jim G.
From Lititz, Pennsylvania
I really like these.
These insoles give plenty of arch support right where it is needed, and cushions the heel strike as well. They are also rugged enough to withstand abuse. I've tried a number of different insoles; so far these are the best I've had.
By Bob
From Denver, Colorado
Excellent for training even with injuries
I have plantar fascitis and also supinate but I can still run with comfort and I don't have any issue with them. I also use the "ironman race" one for ironman 70.3 and it works just as great.
Great product if you have foot issues like me.
By John Smith
From Ann Arbor, Michigan
Very well engineered!
These are not just a piece of cheap foam. The arch support is wonderful. These even make your slippers more comfortable. The foundation is made of hard plastic which keeps the device in place with a soft upper pad molded together to create an amazing device to releive your foot and leg pain. Thank You Spenco!

Loving Them
Some cheap boots ruined my arches. My doctor recommended I try some over the counter insole inserts to support my fallen arches. The Ironman Train have been working great in my sneakers! No more painful arches!
By Arnold
From Montgomery, IL
Very Pleased
Since early summer I've been wearing Spenco insoles in running and casual shoes as recommended by the podiatrist. Love them. The podiatrist is pleased by the results, noting reduced lower leg swelling, and a better stride without over-pronating.

Therapeutic hypothermia for newborns who suffer hypoxic–ischemic birth injury
Can whole-body cooling reduce the rate of cerebral palsy and thus help OBs limit their professional liability?
CASE: Risky decision to let labor continue
The baby was born blue and limp, after a long labor complicated by maternal fever and a prolonged fetal heart rate deceleration.
Earlier, just before the mother was raced to the OR for emergency cesarean delivery, the fetal heart rate had increased sufficiently for the OB to decide to permit labor to continue— the goal being rapid vaginal delivery.
In hindsight, that decision appears to have been potentially fateful for this newborn: Apgar scores were 1 at 5 minutes and 3 at 10 minutes. Umbilical artery pH was 6.98; base deficit, –13 mmol/L. The pediatricians made a preliminary diagnosis of hypoxic-ischemic injury and recommended whole-body cooling of the newborn to limit neural damage.
The frightened parents prayed the treatment would work. Later, recalling news reports that they had read about spinal cord-injured football players and survivors of cardiac arrest who received therapeutic cooling with apparent success, they grew more optimistic about the potential benefit of this treatment for their baby.
In animal models of hypoxic-ischemic neural injury, reducing core body temperature minimizes long-term neural consequences of the injury. Experiments have demonstrated that the optimal course is to induce hypothermia immediately after the neural injury, but initiating hypothermia even as long as 6 hours after injury has a protective effect.
Reducing core temperature appears to limit neural injury by decreasing oxygen requirements and suppressing the accumulation of harmful cytotoxic amino acids, cytokines, and free radicals. In contrast to the beneficial effect of hypothermia, raising body temperature by only 1°C or 2°C in experimental animals that have undergone an isolated hypoxic-ischemic event makes neural damage worse.
Clinical trials in newborns
The beneficial effect of whole-body cooling for newborns who have hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy has been reported in several randomized clinical trials.
In a multicenter trial, supported by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, 208 newborns in severe acidosis at birth were randomized to whole-body cooling or usual care.1 Whole-body cooling, initiated within 6 hours of birth, was achieved by:
- placing subjects on a cooling blanket precooled to 5°C
- inserting an esophageal temperature probe
- adjusting the temperature of the cooling blanket to achieve an esophageal temperature of 33.5°C for 72 hours
- slow rewarming.
Abdominal-wall skin temperature was also monitored in these newborns.
Subjects in the usual care group were nursed in an incubator, with the radiant heat element adjusted to maintain skin temperature of 36.5°C to 37°C.
Investigators determined that the composite end-point of risk of death or disability at 20 months of life was significantly reduced by whole-body cooling (relative risk, 0.72; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.54–0.95; P=.01).
Death occurred in 24% of subjects in the hypothermia group and in 37% of subjects in the usual care group (risk ratio, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.44–1.05; P=.08). The rate of cerebral palsy was 19% in the hypothermia group and 30% in the usual care group (risk ratio, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.38–1.22; P=.20).
The rate of blindness was 7% in the hypothermia group and 14% in usual care group. The rate of hearing impairment was 4% and 6% percent (P - not significant).1
In a second clinical trial, the Total Body Hypothermia for Neonatal Encephalopathy (TOBY) trial of whole-body cooling, 325 newborns with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy were randomized to whole-body cooling or usual care.2 Whole-body cooling was achieved by nursing the infant in an incubator on a cooling blanket set at 25°C to 30°C, with the goal of maintaining a rectal temperature in the newborn of 33°C to 34°C. In this group, the heat element in the incubator was turned off.
Newborns assigned to the usual care group were nursed in an incubator with the heat element turned on and set to maintain a rectal temperature of 37°C.
The rate of death was similar in the two groups, and the rate of severe neurodevelopmental disability in each of the groups was not significantly different. Among surviving infants, however, whole-body cooling was associated with a higher rate of intact neurologic function and a diminished risk of cerebral palsy (compared to what was seen in the usual-care group). Among surviving newborns, cerebral palsy occurred in 28% of those treated with whole-body cooling and in 41% of those receiving usual care (relative risk 0.67; 95% CI, 0.47–0.96; P=.03).
No major adverse effects were observed with whole-body cooling, when compare d against usual care. A 2007 meta-analysis of four trials of therapeutic hypothermia in newborns reported a significant reduction in the composite endpoint of death or in moderate or severe neurodevelopmental disability (relative risk 0.76; 95% CI, 0.65–0.88). The number that needed to be treated to prevent one endpoint event was 6 (95% CI, 4–14).3
Note that some pediatricians remain cautious about using therapeutic hypothermia, because long-term data on the safety and efficacy of the practice have not been reported.
Therapeutic hypothermia for cardiac arrest and coma in adults
A devastating complication of cardiac arrest is coma and long-term neurologic dysfunction. Randomized trials have reported that therapeutic hypothermia is beneficial for comatose survivors of cardiac arrest.
In one study, 275 comatose survivors of cardiac arrest were randomized to therapeutic hypothermia (core temperature, 32°C to 34°C) or usual care. At 6 months, mortality was 41% in the hypothermia group and 55% in the usual care group (risk ratio 0.74; 95% Ci, 0.58–0.95). At 6 months, the rate of favorable neurologic recovery among survivors was 93% in those who had been treated with hypothermia and 87% in those given usual care.1
One protocol for inducing moderate hypothermia that has been studied in adults is to infuse, intravenously, approximately 2 L of cold (4°C) lactated Ringer's solution and to cover the body with refrigerated cooling pads. The typical target is a core temperature of 32°C to 34°C, maintained for 24 hours.

Impact on your practice
For decades, newborns in neonatal intensive care units received their care in warm incubators designed to maintain a body temperature of approximately 37°C. Could the standard practice of warming newborns have contributed to neurologic problems in those who suffered hypoxic-ischemic injury?
Whole-body cooling appears to reduce the rate of cerebral palsy in newborns after hypoxic-ischemic injury. For OBs, this treatment could significantly reduce their exposure to litigation that is based on a theory of hypoxic-ischemic birth injury—by reducing the number of surviving infants who have cerebral palsy.
Does your nursery have a protocol for rapidly instituting therapeutic cooling?
How does the partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO2) in a newborn compare with that of an adult breathing ambient air near the summit of Mount Everest?

This shirt is pretty f-ing clever!
And it also proves that the left is always funnier and more clever than the right.
Now, before all of the Republicans go nuts, please just admit that RARELY has there been anything funny that comes from a republican... and please don't tell me that PETA = People Eating Tasty Animals is funny... it's not. It's moronic.
I'm not exactly sure why there is a relationship with politics and comedy... but there definitely is one.
Left = Clever and funny
Right = Hacks like "Larry the Cable Guy"

Increasing the Dynamic Range of Audio THD Measurements Using a Novel Noise and Distortion Canceling Methodology
Date: May 2003
Creator: Dunipace, Richard Alan
Description: The objective of this study was to determine how a new experimental methodology for measuring Total-Harmonic-Distortion (THD) of operational amplifiers functioned when compared with two standard methodologies, and whether the new methodology offers any improvement in noise floor and dynamic range along with distortion canceling of the sine-wave source used in the testing. The new methodology (THD) is being tested against two standard methodologies: Spectral Analysis using a tuned receiver type Spectrum Analyzer with Notch Filter pre-processing, and a digitized Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) using Notch Filter pre-processing. The THD results appear to agree across all methodologies, and across all items of the sample within all methodologies, to within a percent or less. The distortion and noise canceling feature of the new methodology appeared to function as expected and in accordance with theory. The sample tested in the study consisted of thirty-five NE5534 operational amplifiers produced by Texas Instruments, Inc. and purchased from a local store. The NE5534 is a low-noise, low-distortion, operational amplifier that is widely used in industry and is representative of today's best audio amplifiers.

Effect of Amines as Corrosion Inhibitors for a Low Carbon Steel in Power Industry
Date: December 2004
Creator: Díaz, Jorge G.
Description: Commonly used amines in power industry, including morpholine, DBU (1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene), and DMA (dimethylallylamine) were evaluated for their effect on AISI 1018 steel at 250oF. Samples were exposed to an autoclave containing amine added aqueous solution at pH of 9.5 for 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours. Morphology studies were carried using scanning electron microscope (SEM), phase analysis was done utilizing Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and weight loss was performed to assess kinetics of oxidation. Control samples showed the highest metal dissolution rate. DBU showed the best performance in metal protection and SEM indicated the presence of a free-crack layer formed by fine particles in that set. FTIR showed that DBU apparently favored the formation of magnetite. It is believed that fine particles impede intrusion of aggressive ions into the metal surface by forming a barrier layer. FTIR demonstrated that DMA formed more oxyhydroxides, whereas morpholine presented magnetite to hematite transformation as early as 2 hours. SEM revealed that control and DMA produced acicular particles characteristic of oxyhydroxides while morpholine and DBU presented more equiaxed particles.

Sunlight readability and luminance characteristics of light-emitting diode push button switches.
Date: May 2004
Creator: Fitch, Robert J.
Description: Lighted push button switches and indicators serve many purposes in cockpits, shipboard applications and military ground vehicles. The quality of lighting produced by switches is vital to operators' understanding of the information displayed. Utilizing LED technology in lighted switches has challenges that can adversely affect lighting quality. Incomplete data exists to educate consumers about potential differences in LED switch performance between different manufacturers. LED switches from four different manufacturers were tested for six attributes of lighting quality: average luminance and power consumption at full voltage, sunlight readable contrast, luminance contrast under ambient sunlight, legend uniformity, and dual-color uniformity. Three of the four manufacturers have not developed LED push button switches that meet lighting quality standards established with incandescent technology.

Design of a Monitoring System for a Plasma Cleaning Machine
Date: May 1999
Creator: Fooks, Terry M. (Terry Max)
Description: Plasma cleaning is the most effective dry process to remove surface contaminates from a SAW (Surface Acoustical Wave) device. Consistent gas pressures, flows, and good electrical connections between the chamber shelves are necessary for the process to function predictably. In addition, operation of the monitoring system must be transparent to the plasma cleaning unit. This thesis describes a simple solution to the complex problem of monitoring a plasma cleaning system. The monitoring system uses the LabVIEW® G programming language and hardware, both products of National Instruments, Inc.®, to monitor critical parameters necessary to achieve a consistent process when cleaning these devices.

A Study of the Synthesis and Surface Modification of UV Emitting Zinc Oxide for Bio-Medical Applications
Date: May 2009
Creator: John, Sween
Description: This thesis presents a novel ZnO-hydrogel based fluorescent colloidal semiconductor nanomaterial system for potential bio-medical applications such as bio-imaging, cancer detection and therapy. The preparation of ZnO nanoparticles and their surface modification to make a biocompatible material with enhanced optical properties is discussed. High quality ZnO nanoparticles with UV band edge emission are prepared using gas evaporation method. Semiconductor materials including ZnO are insoluble in water. Since biological applications require water soluble nanomaterials, ZnO nanoparticles are first dispersed in water by ball milling method, and their aqueous stability and fluorescence properties are enhanced by incorporating them in bio-compatible poly N-isopropylacrylamide (PNIPAM) based hydrogel polymer matrix. The optical properties of ZnO-hydrogel colloidal dispersion versus ZnO-Water dispersion were analyzed. The optical characterization using photoluminescence spectroscopy indicates approximately 10 times enhancement of fluorescence in ZnO-hydrogel colloidal system compared to ZnO-water system. Ultrafast time resolved measurement demonstrates dominant exciton recombination process in ZnO-hydrogel system compared to ZnO-water system, confirming the surface modification of ZnO nanoparticles by hydrogel polymer matrix. The surface modification of ZnO nanoparticles by hydrogel induce more scattering centers per unit area of cross-section, and hence increase the luminescence from the ZnO-gel samples due to multiple path excitations. Furthermore, surface modification of ...

Development of a Hybrid Molecular Ultraviolet Photodetector based on Guanosine Derivatives
Date: December 2005
Creator: Liddar, Harsheetal
Description: Modern studies on charge transfer reaction and conductivity measurements of DNA have shown that the electrical behavior of DNA ranges from that of an insulator to that of a wide bandgap semiconductor. Based on this property of DNA, a metal-semiconductor-metal photodetector is fabricated using a self-assembled layer of deoxyguanosine derivative (DNA base) deposited between gold electrodes. The electrodes are lithographically designed on a GaN substrate separated by a distance L (50nm < L < 100nm). This work examines the electrical and optical properties of such wide-bandgap semiconductor based biomaterial systems for their potential application as photodetectors in the UV region wherein most of the biological agents emit. The objective of this study was to develop a biomolecular electronic device and design an experimental setup for electrical and optical characterization of a novel hybrid molecular optoelectronic material system. AFM results proved the usage of Ga-Polar substrate in conjugation with DG molecules to be used as a potential electronic based sensor. A two-terminal nanoscale biomolectronic diode has been fabricated showing efficient rectification ratio. A nanoscale integrated ultraviolet photodetector (of dimensions less than 100 nm) has been fabricated with a cut-off wavelength at ~ 320 nm.

Characterization of Boron Nitride Thin Films on Silicon (100) Wafer.
Date: August 2007
Creator: Maranon, Walter
Description: Cubic boron nitride (cBN) thin films offer attractive mechanical and electrical properties. The synthesis of cBN films have been deposited using both physical and chemical vapor deposition methods, which generate internal residual, stresses that result in delamination of the film from substrates. Boron nitride films were deposited using electron beam evaporation without bias voltage and nitrogen bombardment (to reduce stresses) were characterize using FTIR, XRD, SEM, EDS, TEM, and AFM techniques. In addition, a pin-on-disk tribological test was used to measure coefficient of friction. Results indicated that samples deposited at 400°C contained higher cubic phase of BN compared to those films deposited at room temperature. A BN film containing cubic phase deposited at 400°C for 2 hours showed 0.1 friction coefficient.

Investigation of the feasibility of non-invasive carbon dioxide detection using spectroscopy in the visible spectrum.
Date: December 2007
Creator: Marks, Damian
Description: Pulse oximeters are used in operating rooms and recovery rooms as a monitoring device for oxygen in the respiratory system of the patient. The advantage of pulse oximeters over other methods of oxygen monitoring is that they are easy to use and they are non-invasive, which means it is not necessary break the skin to extract blood for information to be obtained. The standard for the measurement of partial pressure of CO2 and O2 is an arterial blood gas analysis (ABG). However routine monitoring using this method on a continuous basis is impractical since it is slow, painful and invasive. Measuring carbon dioxide is critical to preventing ailments such as carbon dioxide poisoning or hypoxia. The problem is, currently there is no known effective non-invasive method for accurately measuring carbon dioxide in the body to properly assess the adequacy of ventilation. The objective of this study was to experimentally use spectroscopy in the visible spectrum and the principles of operation of a pulse oximeter to incorporate a method of non-invasive real-time carbon dioxide monitoring that is as quick and easy to use.

Development of a Simplified Fracture Toughness Tool for Polymers
Date: August 1997
Creator: Marnock, Patrick J. (Patrick Joseph)
Description: This thesis presents research toward the development of a simple inexpensive fracture toughness tool for polymeric materials. Experiments were conducted to test the specimen configuration and the fracture toughness tool against an established ASTM standard for polymer fracture toughness, D5045, and a commonly used four-point bend method. The materials used in this study were polycarbonate and high density polyethylene. Reductions in both the production time and the variability resulting from the preparation of the specimens were addressed through the use of specially designed fixtures. The effects from the razor cut depths used in the chevron notch were compared to the fracture toughness values obtained in order to determine the effect upon the validity of the fracture toughness.
