Ionizing radiation processing is a widely employed method for preservative treatment of foodstuffs. Usually it is possible to detect irradiated herbs and spices by resorting to luminescence techniques, in particular phot...

The influence of mechanical processing as well as ion and chemical surface etching of single-crystal germanium on its photoconductivity and photomodulation properties in the terahertz spectral region was investigated. Re...

This paper deals with the main characteristics of the influence of pulsed laser radiation and its application for the labeling of transparent dielectrics. On the basis of the analysis of the literature data and the study...

The Argentine fish resource is highly biodiverse, with annual catches of about 800,000 tons. However, most products are exported at a low processing level, mainly as commodities. Valorizing these resources is essential t...

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation has been considered a deleterious agent that living organisms must avoid. However, many of the acclimation changes elicited by UV induce a wide range of positive effects in plant physiology thr...

Abstract Recently, as the concept of pet food that satisfies both nutritional needs and the five senses has evolved, so too has the demand for effective pet food non-thermal sterilization methods. Prominent non-thermal t...

Optical skyrmions, which are topological quasi-particles with nontrivial electromagnetic textures, have garnered escalating research interest recently for their potential in diverse applications. In this paper, we presen...

Laser processing implies the generation of a material function defined by the shape and the size of the induced structures, being a collective effect of topography, morphology, and structural arrangement. A fundamental d...

Integrated planar lenses are critical components for analog optical information processing that enable a wide range of applications including beam steering. Conventional planar lenses require gradient index control which...

Abstract Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a common complication among preterm neonates, with portable X-ray imaging serving as the standard diagnostic modality in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). However, lung m...

Discussed are the problems of designing readout circuits for IR-wavelength photodiode arrays intended, for example, for reading and processing information from array radiation detectors based on materials such as InSb an...

Millimeter-wave (mmWave) and orbital angular momentum (OAM) multiplexing are two key technologies for modern wireless communications, where significant efforts have been devoted to combining these two technologies for ex...

Borophene Quantum Dots (BPQDs) have been shown to exhibit unique properties that make them suitable as zero-dimensional nanomaterials. These properties include optical, structural, electrical, mechanical, photophysical, ...

Metasurface design tends to be tedious and time-consuming based on sweeping geometric parameters. Common numerical simulation techniques are slow for large areas, ultra-fine grids, and/or three-dimensional simulations. S...

As modern complementary-metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) circuitry rapidly approaches fundamental speed and bandwidth limitations, optical platforms have become promising candidates to circumvent these limits and facilit...

Optically variable features are widely used in product design and anti-counterfeiting. However, current industrial methods rely heavily on chemical inks, which pose environmental concerns and suffer from poor wear and co...

Nanocomposites formed by a phase-dispersed nanomaterial and a polymeric host matrix are highly attractive for nano- and micro-fabrication. The combination of nanoscale and bulk materials aims at achieving an effective in...

Direct laser interference patterning (DLIP) is a laser-based surface structuring method that stands out for its high throughput, flexibility and resolution for laboratory and industrial manufacturing. This top–down tec...

The electromagnetic density of the atmosphere has increased in recent years due to the major technological development, generating a new kind of pollution, which some authors called "electromagnetic pollution". The use o...

En este trabajo se han estudiado varios de los diferentes procesos que tienen lugar durante el calentamiento y la fusión de superficies de aceros al carbono producidos por irradiación con luz infrarroja coherente. En p...

We performed field and laboratory experiments to evaluate the effect of solar radiation (UVR and PAR) on leaf litter decomposition, fungal biomass and sporulation rates, in the Andean Patagonia, where high UVR levels are...

Manipulating the thermal emission in the infrared (IR) range significantly impacts both fundamental scientific research and various technological applications, including IR thermal camouflage, information encryption, and...

The new Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announcement makes it even more necessary to find alternatives to trans fats. The effect of cooling rate and temperature cycles on crystallization behavior and polymorphism of t...

Using coupled electromagnetic and hydrodynamic calculations, we elucidate theoretically the topographic transition from a random metallic surface to a periodic sub-wavelength grating by ultrashort laser ablation. The ori...
