Asymmetrical resonant cavity thin film devices designed for vanadium dioxide applications

Abstract

In this paper, Vanadium dioxide (VO2) thin-film devices with two different use cases have been redesigned to introduce an asymmetrical resonant cavity structure. The structure is designed with the goal of enhancing the optical performance of the central VO2 layer and has an anti-reflection property in the cold state. The advantages and limitations of such a design are discussed.

Objective

ปัจจุบันมีงานวิจัยเพื่อออกแบบอุปกรณ์ฟิล์มบางทางแสงเป็นจำนวนมาก เราสามารถใช้คุณสมบัติของวัสดุเปลี่ยนเฟส (PCMs) เพื่อออกแบบอุปกรณ์ที่ทำงานได้สองโหมด อีกทั้งยังมีการออกแบบฟิล์มบางให้มีโครงสร้างเป็นช่องสั่นพ้องเพื่อเพิ่มประสิทธิภาพและปรับย่านการทำงานให้เหมาะสม แต่วิธีการออกแบบช่องสั่นพ้องปกติไม่สามารถใช้ได้กับวัสดุเปลี่ยนเฟส งานวิจัยนี้จะเป็นการเปรียบเทียบวิธีการออกแบบช่องสั่นพ้องที่ไม่สมมาตรเพื่อแก้ปัญหาข้างต้น โดยจะเทียบกับวิธีปกติของอุปกรณ์ฟิล์มบางในงานวิจัยที่มีอยู่ โดยแสดงถึงข้อดีและข้อจำกัดของวิธีการออกแบบใหม่นี้

EcoGrow Pellets: Recycled Clay Pellets Enriched with Natural Calcium

Eco Grow Pellets are high-porosity plant-growing clay pellets made from ceramic industrial sediment, blended with ground chicken bone to enhance calcium and essential minerals, promoting strong and healthy plant growth. They are suitable for all types of plants, especially those requiring well-aerated soil with good water drainage. Eco Grow Pellets are an innovative clay-based growing medium designed to optimize plant cultivation efficiency. Their high porosity structure allows for excellent air and water circulation, reducing soil compaction and waterlogging—common causes of root rot and stunted growth. Additionally, the pellets are enriched with calcium and essential minerals from ground chicken bones, reinforcing plant structure and enhancing root strength, enabling better nutrient absorption. This product is made from 100% recycled ceramic industrial sediment, aligning with the principles of Zero Waste and the BCG Economy Model. It helps minimize industrial waste while transforming discarded materials into high-value, eco-friendly growing media. Eco Grow Pellets are ideal for vegetables, flowers, and potted plants, offering ease of use, cleanliness, and safety. They contribute to sustainable agriculture by improving both crop productivity and environmental health.

Enhancing Sustainable Fish Gelatin Properties through Furcellaran Incoporation: Innovations in Eco-friendly Gelling Techniques

Fish gelatin is increasingly recognized as an alternative source of gelatin, but its use has been limited due to weak gelling properties. To address these issues, the effect of furcellaran, a gelling agent, was examined at various levels (25-100% FG substitution) on the structural and physicochemical properties of FG gels. As the amount of FUR increased to 25%, the FG/FUR gel showed improved hardness and gel strength (P<0.05). Additionally, increasing FUR levels led to higher gelling and melting points, showing a dose-dependent relationship. Microstructural analysis revealed that adding FUR created a denser gel network with smaller gaps. SAXS scattering intensities also increased as FUR concentration rose. Overall, adding FUR improved the gelling properties of FG without negatively affecting springiness and syneresis, enhancing gel strength and gelling temperature.
