Based on theoretical analysis, a new general equation of mean particle size applicable to both conventional atomization methods and new atomization processes is presented. In gas atomization, it is equivalent with and can be changed into Lubanska Equation. In centrifugal atomization, it can be changed into the equations that are currently the most widely used. In water atomization, it is similar to the equation proposed by Grandzol and Tallmadge. According to the universal equation, new correlations for mean particle size in novel atomization processes such as Hybrid Atomization and Multistage Atomization were proposed and agreed with our experimental data well.

The novel behavior of ferrate(VI) has received an increased attention for its possible applications in various purposes particularly in the treatment of waste/effluent waters. It possess relatively high oxidizing capacity and the reduced ferrate(VI) into Fe(III) again an important and useful precipitant, coagulant, flocculants and likely to be a good adsorbent via the formation of ferric hydroxide for various metal cations. Moreover, the non-toxic effect makes it a 'green chemical' and further enhances its widespread uses in various purposes. Here an attempt has been made to review the applications of ferrate(VI) in the treatment of waste waters and also its possible future applications in the wastewater treatment technology.

Lithiated transition metal oxides such as LiMn2O4, Lil-xMnO$_2$, LiNiO$_2$, LiCoO$_2$, and their solid solution phases are used as cathode materials for lithium rechargeable batteries. We prepared the cathode materials using a novel eutectic self-mixing method without any artificial mixing procedures. This method provides an extraordinarily simple way to make the cathode materials, and it is possible to prepare at very low temperature such as 25$0^{\circ}C$. Furthermore, the cathode materials produced have discharge capacities that are much better than cathode materials prepared by previously reported synthetic methods. The spontaneous and homogeneous mixing is verified by $^{7}$ Li magic-angle-spinning (MAS) NMR spectroscopy.

In this paper, we propose a novel test method to effectively detect hard and soft faults in CMOS 2-stage op-amps. The proposed method uses a very high frequency sinusoidal signal that exceeds unit gain bandwidth to maximize the fault effects. Since the proposed test method doesn't require any complex algorithms to generate the test pattern and uses only a single test pattern to detect all target faults, therefore test costs can be much reduced. The area overhead is also very small because the CUT is converted to a unit gain amplifier. Using HSPICE simulation, the results indicated a high degree of fault coverage for hard and soft faults in CMOS 2-stage op-amps. To verify this proposed method, we fabricated a CMOS op-amp that contained various short and open faults through the Hyundai 0.65-um 2-poly 2-metal CMOS process. Experimental results for the fabricated chip have shown that the proposed test method can effectively detect hard and soft faults in CMOS op-amps.

Charge transfer mechanism of poly(4,4'-aminotriphenylene hexafluoroisopropylidenediphthalimide) (TP6F PI) which exhibits bistable ON and OFF switching has been studied using photoemission electron spectroscopy (PES) and near-edge x-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS). Here, we demonstrate novel set-up in which holes are injected by photoemission process instead of direct charge carrier injection via metal electrode. The accumulated charges on the PI surface in the OFF state abruptly flow across the PI film when the bias voltage of a back electrode reaches a specific value, indicating that the film is changed to the ON state. Core level and x-ray absorption spectra probed at charge injection region via photoemission process do not show any evidences implying structural modification of TP6F PI during the phase change. Whereas, in valence band spectra, the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) is shifted toward Fermi level, responsible for improved hole-mobility of TP6F PI of ON state.

The amperometric responses of thiourea were studied in 0.1 M NaOH by flow injection analysis. D. C. amperometric and pulsed amperometric detection methods were applied for the determination of thiourea at novel metal electrodes such as Pt and Au. Triple-step potential waveforms were adopted in the pulsed amperometric detection. With an optimized pulsed waveform, the current for the oxidation of thiourea was examined with the variation of flow rate of carrier solution and with the change in the amount of sample injected. Gold working electrode turned out to be better in sensitivity and signal to noise ratio than Pt electrode in the pulsed amperometric detection of thiourea. Detection limit is estimated to be 5.33 ${\times}$ 10$^{-5}$ M with this detection method.

A new flexible quadridentate ligand, N,N'-dimethylethylenediamine-N,N'-di-${\alpha}$-propionic acid (dmedpa) has been synthesized, and diammine and ethylenediamine cobalt(III) complexes of dmedpa, $[Co(dmedpa)(NH_3)_2]^+$ and $[Co(dmedpa(en)]^+,$ have been prepared. Only s-cis isomer has been yielede. A known N,N'-dimethylethylediamine-N,N'-diacetic acid (dmedda) has also been prepared. Dichloro cobalt(III) complexes of both dmedda and dmedpa have been prepared. Only the s-cis isomer has been yielded in the $[Co(dmedda)Cl_2]^-$ complex, while only the uns-cis isomer has been obtained for the $[Co(dmedpa)Cl_2]^-$ complex.

The frequency response on the tip-sample distance in scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) that is combined with an electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM) is described. The oscillation frequency of the EQCM increases rapidly when the SECM tip is very close to the substrate electrode surface. This frequency increase is reproducible regardless of the current feedback in SECM, which is attributed to the stress caused by the tip pressing the quartz crystal. It is useful to calibrate the tip-sample distance with respect to the frequency change when a combined system of SECM and EQCM (SECM-EQCM) is used. This method could be applied to several cases such as rigid metal electrode and non-conducting or partially conducting polymer coating prepared on the quartz crystal regardless of the feedback current.

In this study, to create circular holes on an inclined conic face, we developed a novel process of vertical piercing on the plane before drawing, instead of applying an expensive cam-piercing method. The pierced holes are deformed during the drawing, and their shapes are affected by the size of the center hole. Using the Abaqus CAE program, the deformation tendency of the holes, according to the diameter of the center hole, was identified, and the diameter for securing the roundness of the side holes were determined through actual experiments. The developed process was successfully applied to mass production of the part, and a cost reduction is expected.

Metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) are continuously scaling down in the nanoscale region to improve the functionality of integrated circuits. The scaling down of MOSFET devices causes short-channel effects in the nanoscale region. In nanoscale region, leakage current components are increasing, resulting in substantial power dissipation. Very large-scale integration designers are constantly exploring different effective methods of mitigating the power dissipation. In this study, a transistor-level input-controlled stacking (ICS) approach is proposed for minimizing significant power dissipation. A low-power ICS approach is extensively discussed to verify its importance in low-power applications. Circuit reliability is monitored for process and voltage and temperature variations. The ICS approach is designed and simulated using Cadence's tools and compared with existing low-power and high-speed techniques at a 22-nm technology node. The ICS approach decreases power dissipation by 84.95% at a cost of 5.89 times increase in propagation delay, and improves energy dissipation reliability by 82.54% compared with conventional circuit for a ring oscillator comprising 5-inverters.
