Very soon after the Big Bang, the universe enjoyed a brief phase where quarks and gluons roamed freely, not yet joined up ...

Abstract: In this paper, high-field hole transport in germanium nanowires was studied by using Boltzmann's transport equation in an atomistic framework. The scattering mechanisms taken into account ...

Abstract: The spherical harmonics expansion is a deterministic alternative to the Monte Carlo method for solving the Boltzmann equation. With the spherical harmonics expansion solver it is possible to ...

Due to funding restrictions, this scholarship is open to applicants eligible to pay tuition fees at the UK rate only, as defined by UKCISA regulations Applicants for PhD must normally hold an ...

To assess the effect of donor size, we performed experiments where the acceptor size was kept constant while the donor size varied (Figure 5D&E). When sonicated acceptor liposomes were used, transfer ...

We incorporate the Poisson–Boltzmann (PB) theory of electrostatics into our variational ... we develop highly accurate methods for solving the dielectric PB equation and for computing the dielectric ...

Representing chemical data; linear dependence; equation of the line; interpolation; parabolic behaviour; inverse proportionality (hyperbolic behaviour); Cartesian representation of a function ...

This book also uses fundamental ideas of applied mathematics to discuss recent developments in nonlinear science, such as mathematical modeling of reinforced random motion of particles, semiconductor ...

The thermal performance of two-dimensional (2D) field-effect transistors (FET) is investigated frequently by solving the Fourier heat diffusion law and the Boltzmann transport equation (BTE). With the ...
