Probing magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene with monolithic gate-defined Josephson junctions
(English) In 2018, following a theoretical prediction from 2011, it was found that stacking two layers of graphene with a relative twist angle of 1.1° between them leads to multiple new properties. At this so-called magic ...
Microwave imaging for brain functional monitoring
(English) The use of microwave imaging techniques in medical applications has gained significant interest because of its non-ionizing character, low cost, and body penetrability. Different techniques and systems for microwave ...
Aplicabilidad de la ceniza volcánica de baja actividad como nuevo recurso para materiales cementicios sostenibles
(English) Volcanic ash (VA), abundantly available in various regions globally, serves as an effective supplementary cementitious material (SCM) for partially substituting Portland cement (OPC). However, its inherently low ...
