Voltage-Controllable Guided Propagation in Nematic Liquid Crystals by Hsin-Yu Yao, Shang-Min Yeh

“…Voltage-controllable guided channels are formed in a planar nematic liquid crystals cell. The director of liquid crystals can be aligned by applying external voltage, which results in a difference of the refractive index between two adjacent channels; therefore, the incidence beam can be coupled from one channel to another. …”

Self-organization networking technology for 5G ultra-dense wireless network by Jiandong LI, Min SHENG, Junyu LIU, Chenxi ZHAO, Yan ZHANG, Hongguang SUN

“…Enhancing network capacity by increasing the density of the fifth-generation wireless networks has become one of the key challenges for the future mobile systems.A practical channel model for ultra-dense network (UDN) was built,and the limitation of network densification by analyzing the interference distribution was revealed.To approach the limit,UDN-oriented self-organization networking (SON) technology was proposed and its new feature in UDN was investigated.Finally,a SON based cell merging and splitting strategy was tailored.Experiment results indicate that the proposed strategy is capable for improving network capacity and user experience significantly.…”

On species separation in $n$-component mixture under microgravity by Mojtabi, Mehdi, Charrier-Mojtabi, Marie-Catherine, Mojtabi, Abdelkader

“…Recently, we proved that it was possible to significantly increase the importance of the species separation for binary mixtures, under microgravity, using forced convection obtained by a uniform translational displacement of the horizontal isothermal walls of the cell maintained at $T_{h}$ and $T_{c}$ respectively, with $\Delta T = T_{h} -T_{c}$.The present work is an extension of the study performed by Mojtabi (2020) with various mixtures, from binary to $n$-component mixtures. …”
