The United States video game industry has become a multi-billion dollar-a-year business, due in large part to the explosion of downloadable content (DLC). Video game DLC includes handheld gaming and additional content not found on... more
DLC PARA CUERPOS EN 2D.
IC engines contribute to global warming through extensive use of fossil fuel energy and emission of combustion by-products. Innovative technologies such as cylinder de-activation (CDA), after-exhaust heat treatment, surface texturing and... more
Tribological studies were carried out with tetrahedral amorphous diamond-like carbon (ta-C DLC) coatings, varying in thickness and roughness, using two different contact configurations lubricated with seven types of hydraulic oils.... more
The result showed that the hardness test using Vickers method of the raw material gave an average hardness value of 327 VHN. Based on the tensile test to the raw material, the average tensile strength was measured for about 1146 MPa. The... more
The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the effects of different laser irradiations including Nd-YAG (neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet laser; Nd:Y3Al5O12), Er-YAG (erbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet laser, erbium YAG... more
DLC is a promising material to be used in technological issues. However, its poor adhesion on steels keeps away from a wide range of applications. Thus, an understanding of the physicochemical structure of the DLC/interlayer/steel system... more
Surface textured and DLC coated (hydrogenated amorphous carbon) samples were assessed for their coating performance at 40 oC, 80 oC and 125 oC. As a result, textured a-C:H DLC demonstrated higher but stable coefficient of friction (COF)... more
A quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) in-silico study was performed to develop a mathematical model that correlates 2D and 3D descriptors of 37 antioxidant lubricant additives (compounds) with their properties. A molecular... more
Effects of diamond-like carbon (DLC) and Ag nanoparticles (Ag NPs) on photoanode of quantum dot sensitized solar cell (QDSSCs) have studied for the first time. Photoanodes include thin films of the TiO2 deposited on the FTO substrate,... more
Diamond-like carbon (DLC) is a hydrogenated amorphous carbon (a-C:H) thin film material owing to its unique tribological properties that may open great opportunities for new applications. However, DLC presents low chemical affinity with... more
There is a great interest in understanding the properties of sputtered DLC films in order to enable their wide application in electronic devices and sensors. In present study, metal-containing diamond-like carbon (Me-DLC) thin films were... more

This paper targets the unexplored problem of demand response within the context of power-grids that are allowed to regularly enforce blackouts as a mean to balance supply with demand:highly-stressed grids. Currently these utilities use as... more
We investigate the effects of different contents of multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) on optical and electrical properties of polyaniline (PANI). The MWCNTs/PANI composites are deposited on glass substrates coated with indium tin oxide... more
In the present study, Ag nanoparticles were synthesized in amorphous hydrogenated carbon films on glass substrates by RF-PECVD and RF-sputtering co-deposition method at the room temperature. Methyl orange was utilized as an analyte with... more

It is well known that all biological systems which undergo oxidative metabolism or oxidative stress generate a small amount of light. Since the origin of excited states producing this light is generally accepted to come from chemical... more
Further to traditional corrosion monitoring techniques for rated deteriorations, nowadays modern electrochemical monitoring methods are promising for the control of non-rated damage mechanisms. Considering carbon steel as the most... more
Surface textured and DLC coated (hydrogenated amorphous carbon) samples were assessed for their coating performance at 40 ºC, 80 ºC and 125 ºC. As a result, textured a-C:H DLC demonstrated higher but stable coefficient of friction (COF) at... more
Analysis of Mechanically Stimulated Gas Emission Spectrometry data combined with characterization of chemical composition, structure and mechanical properties of various hydrogenated amorphous carbon coatings has allowed shedding light on... more
Unusual carbonaceous matter (UCM) in the form of mostly centimeter-sized lumps and cobbles has been sampled in the southeast Bavarian Alpine Foreland. It is a highly porous blackish material with a glassy luster on freshly crushed... more
