Change detection plays a very important role in real-time image analysis, e.g., detection of intruders. One key issue is robustness to varying illumination conditions. We propose two techniques for change detection that have been developed to deal with var ...
The electrochem. promotion of RuO2 catalysts interfaced with yttria stabilized zirconia was studied for the combustion of ethylene. The complete oxidn. of ethylene can be described by an Eley-Rideal type mechanism. In situ work function measurements were u ...
The Bit formation using atomic force microscopy (AFM) was studied on 270-nm-thick < 111 > preferentially oriented Pb(Zr0.4Ti0.6)O-3 (PZT) films prepared by the sol-gel process. To minimize the cantilever-sample capacitive farce interaction, the experiment ...
A review, with over 209 refs., is given on the prepn. and structures of all known salts of the known homopolyat. cations of the chalcogens and halogens. The structures of these cations, many of which are nonclassical and cluster-like, arise from pos. charg ...
The charge transport in nanoporous ZnO was studied by laser flash induced photocurrent transients. The results are discussed using a diffusion model and compared with previous results on TiO2. The charge transport was highly dependent on the potential givi ...
A first-principle molecular dynamics study on liquid GeSe2 yields structural properties in good agreement with detailed neutron scattering data. The short range order is accurately described by a variety of bonding configurations, in which regular tetrahed ...
First-principles molecular dynamics simulations are carried out to study the structural properties of liquid GeSe2. We use a generalized gradient approximation for the exchange and correlation energy, which we find to improve significantly upon the local d ...
Al(110) has been studied for temperatures up to 900 K via ensemble density-functional molecular dynamics. The strong anharmonicity displayed by this surface results in a negative coefficient of thermal expansion, where the first interlayer distance decreas ...
The absorption spectrum of H2O in Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe and ice matrixes in the region of the 1st ~A 1B1 continuum is reported. Substantial blue gas-to-matrix shifts are obsd. for the max., which increase with decreasing matrix cage size. The absorption threshold ...
A first-principles investigation of Si 2p core-level shifts at the Si(001)-SiO2 interface is presented. We introduce several relaxed interface models obtained by attaching different crystalline forms of SiO2 to Si(001). These model structures contain the m ...
