Seawater can be converted into fresh water using solar energy. This is as an easy, suitable and green solution method to obtain heat for desalination. It is possible to concentrate the sunlight heat flux onto a small focal area by using a Fresnel lens. When the focal area is correctly ... Read More
Stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) is a nonlinear phenomenon coupling optical and elastic waves. Traditionally regarded as an undesirable side-effect, it has garnered renewed interest as a platform for investigating slow light, nonreciprocity, and for designing high-performance chip ...

Radiofrequency ablation is one of the common methods used to treat pain, movement or mood disorders. It bases on the electromagnetic energy provided to the selected tissue when an alternating current is applied. The resistive heating produced in this process provokes temperature rise in ...

Introduction: The use of microwave energy for thermal cracking (from thermal stress and water pore pressure) of lignite-coal briquettes increases the lignite friability [1] and is beneficial for later chemical treatment inside a gasifier (for methanol production for example). An ... Read More
Introduction The monitoring of bacteria concentration in drain fluid is the most common way to estimate the success of a colon surgery. However, the lack of efficient method to follow the development of E.coli in drain fluid after surgery is often fatal to the patient. The proposed ... Read More
The extraordinary electromagnetic response of nanostructured material, usually made up of a metallic structures distributed in within a dielectric matrix has attracted a lot of interest in recent years. These materials are technically called metamaterial (MM) since they possess ... Read More
The use of plasmonic effects to dramatically enhance the electromagnetic field near the surface of a metallic nanostructured surface has grown into a large research area in the effort to take advantage of the surface enhanced field. In this paper the electromagnetic field near a nano ... Read More
Most probably Gauss\'s law is considered as the first \"electromagnetic\" concept for early undergraduate physics and electromagnetic courses. In early study year, teaching Gauss’s law is usually performed based on two main components; 1) The use of simple symmetrical charge ... Read More
The axial injection torch (AIT) produces high-density plasmas by coupling microwave power to a flowing gas. The plasma is imposed by defining its electron density and temperature whose maximum are given by optical emission spectroscopy diagnostics. Our study of an AIT with COMSOL ... Read More
In the past few years, metamaterial perfect absorbers (MPA) have been extensively studied due to their incredible ability to manipulate electromagnetic waves and provide a broadband, polarization-independent, and wide-angle response for a host of applications. The need for high ... Read More
