We investigated photoluminescence characteristics of ZnO nano needle-like rods grown on a c-plane $AL_2O_3$ substrate by the hot wall epitaxy method. The nano-rods were vertically well aligned along the ZnO c-axis. The diameters of the ZnO nano-rods ranged from 20 nm to 30 nm and their lengths were between 600 and 700 nm. In the photoluminescence spectrum at 10 K, the exciton emission bound to the neutral donor dominated while defect related emission was weakly observed. With a further increase of temperature, the free exciton emission appeared and eventually became dominant at room temperature.

Let γt(G) and τ(G) denote the total domination number and vertex cover number of graph G, respectively. In this paper, we study the total domination number of the central tree C(T) for a tree T. First, a relationship between the total domination number of C(T) and the vertex cover number of tree T is discussed. We characterize the central trees with equal total domination number and independence number. Applying the first result, we improve the upper bound on the total domination number of C(T) and solve one open problem posed by Kazemnejad et al..

A more generalized version of the information inequality based on diffusivity which is a natural measure of dispersion for median-unbiased estimators developed by Sung et al. (1990) is presented. This non-Bayesian L$_{1}$ information inequality is free from regularity conditions and can be regarded as an analogue of the Chapman-Robbins inequality for mean-unbiased estimation. The approach given here, however, deals with a more generalized situation than that of the Chapman-Robbins inequality. We also develop a Bayesian version of the L$_{1}$ information inequality in median-unbiased estimation. This latter inequality is directly comparable to the Bayesian Cramer-Rao bound due to the van Trees inequality.

Electric current flow was observed through imogolite film when imogolite ($(HO)_3Al_2O_3SiOH$) was exposed to water molecules and connected to external electrodes. Current flow was due to the bound water on the surface of imogolite. Current flow increased as the pH of the water decreased. The current-voltage (I-V) measurements from a field effective transistor (FET) using $H_2O$/imogolite film revealed that the current carrier in $H_2O$/ imogolite had p-type characteristics, i.e. the carrier was probably $H^+$. The possible mechanism for current transportation in imogolite/water was also suggested in this paper.

In this paper we investigate a subclass 𝓜(α) of the class of starlike functions in the unit disk |z| < 1. 𝓜(α), π/2 ≤ α < π, is the set of all analytic functions f in the unit disk |z| < 1 with the normalization f(0) = f'(0) - 1 = 0 that satisfy the condition $$1+\frac{{\alpha}-{\pi}}{2\;sin\;{\alpha}}. The class 𝓜(α) was introduced by Kargar et al. [Complex Anal. Oper. Theory 11: 1639-1649, 2017]. In this paper some basic geometric properties of the class 𝓜(α) are investigated. Among others things, coefficients estimates and bound are given for the Fekete-Szegö functional associated with the k-th root transform [f(z^k)]^1/k. Also a certain subclass of bi-starlike functions is introduced and the bounds for the initial coefficients are obtained.

An unexplained acceleration on the order of 10^-8 cm s^-2, which is close to cH, where c is the speed of light and H is the Hubble constant, is detected in gravitationally bound systems of different scales, from the solar system to clusters of galaxies. We found that any test body located inside a fractal structure with fractal dimension D = 2 experiences acceleration of the same order and confirmed the previous work that photons propagating through this structure decrease the frequency owing to gravitational redshift. The acceleration can be directed against the movement of the test body. The fractal distribution of the matter should be at scales of at least hundreds of megaparsecs to a few gigaparsecs for the existence of this acceleration.

For a Polynomial P(z) = Σⁿ_j=0 a_jz^j with a_j ≥ a_j-1, a₀ > 0 (j = 1, 2, ..., n), a classical result of Enestrom-Kakeya says that all the zeros of P(z) lie in |z| ≤ 1. This result was generalized by A. Joyal et al. [3] where they relaxed the non-negative condition on the coefficents. This result was further generalized by Dewan and Bidkham [9] by relaxing the monotonicity of the coefficients. In this paper, we use some techniques to obtain some more generalizations of the results [3], [8], [9].

We fabricated 1$\times$8 array of GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well infrared photodetectors for the long wavelength infrared detection which is based on the bound-continuum intersubband transition, and characterized its electrical and optical properties. The device was grown on SI-GaAs(100) by the molecular beam epitaxy and consisted of 25 period of 40 ${\AA} $ GaAs well and 500 ${\AA} $ $Al_{0.28} Ga_{0.72}$ As barrier. To reduce the possibility of interface states only the center 20 ${\AA} $ of the well was doped with Si ($N_D=2{\times}10^{18} cm^{-3}$). We etched the sample to make square mesas of 200$\times$200 $\mu\textrm{m}^2$ and made an ohmic contact on each pixel with Au/Ge. Current-voltage characteristics and photoresponse spectrum of each detector reveal that the array was highly uniform and stable. The spectral responsivity and the detectivity $D^＊$ were measured to be 180,260 V/W and $4.9{\times}10^9cm\sqrt{Hz}/W$ respectively at the peak wavelength of $\lambda$ =7.8 $\mu\textrm{m}$ and at T=10 K.

Large colorless single crystals of sodium zeolite X, stoichiometry |Na80 |[Si112Al80O384]-FAU, with diameters up to 200 μm and Si/Al = 1.41 have been synthesized from gels with the composition of 2.40SiO2 : 2.00NaAlO2 : 7.52NaOH : 454H2O : 5.00TEA. One of these, a colorless octahedron about 200 μm in cross-section has been treated with aqueous 0.1 M KNO3 for the preparation of K+-exchanged zeolite X. The crystal structure of |K80|[Si112Al80O384]-FAU per unit cell, a = 24.838(4) A, dehydrated at 673 K and 1 × 10-6 Torr, has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques in the cubic space group Fd at 294 K. The structure was refined using all intensities to the final error indices (using only the 707 reflections for which Fo > 4σ (Fo)) R1 = 0.075 (based on F) and R2 = 0.236 (based on F2). About 80 K+ ions per unit cell are found at an unusually large number of crystallographically distinct positions, eight. Eleven K+ ions are at the centers of double 6-rings (D6Rs, site I; K-O = 2.492(6) A and O-K-O (octahedral) = 88.45(22)o and 91.55(22)o). Site-I' position (in the sodalite cavities opposite D6Rs) is occupied by five K+ ions per unit cell; these K+ ions are recessed 1.92 A into the sodalite cavities from their 3-oxygen planes (K-O = 2.820(19) A, and O-K-O = 78.6(6)o). Twety-three K+ ions are found at three nonequivalent site II (in the supercage) with occupancies of 5, 9, and 9 ions; these K+ ions are recessed 0.43 A, 0.75 A, and 1.55 A, respectively, into the supercage from the three oxygens to which it is bound (K-O = 2.36(13) A, 2.45(13) A, and 2.710(13) A, O-K-O = 116.5(20)o, 110.1(17)o, and 90.4(6)o, respectively). The remaining sixteen, thirteen, and twelve K+ ions occupy three sites III' near triple 4-rings in the supercage (K-O = 2.64(3) A, 2.94(3) A, 2.73(5) A, 2.96(6) A, 3.06(4) A, and 3.08(3) A).

In order to compare phosphorus (P) behavior of livestock manure compost (LMC) and chemical fertilizer (CF) applied to the sea-reclaimed land soils, incubation experiments were conducted for five weeks. Four soils differing textural classes, sandy loam and clay loam, and electric conductivity (EC) value, high and low, were applied with CF and LMC. LMC was applied at the level of 0, 1, 2, and 3% on the soil weight basis and CF was applied at the same levels of P as LMC. The results showed that increase of P application rate of CF and LMC led to linearly increase available $P_2O_5$ and $0.01M\;CaCl_2$ extractable P contents regardless of soil texture and EC. However, 0.01M $CaCl_2$ extractable P from soil applied with CF was significantly higher than with LMC. Correlation analysis between $0.01M-CaCl_2$ extractable P and fractionated P by different extraction methods showed that $0.01M-CaCl_2$ extractable P positively correlated with KCl-P (soluble and exchangeable P) and HCl-P (Ca and Mg bound P). However, NaOH-P (Fe and Al bound P and organic P) and residual P was adverse. The amount of NaOH-P significantly influenced to the amount of 0.01M $CaCl_2$ extractable P of CF and LMC in the soils. The application of LMC at sandy loam soil could be carried out in the consideration of nutrient leaching and crop uptake.
