摘要： A method for preparing p-type zinc oxide (ZnO) is described. The p-type ZnO is prepared by implanting low energy acceptor ions into an n-type ZnO substrate and annealing. In an alternative embodiment, the n-type ZnO substrate is pre-doped by implanting low energy donor ions. The p-type ZnO may have application in various optoelectronic devices, and a p-n junction formed from the p-type ZnO prepared as described above and a bulk n-type ZnO substrate is also described.

摘要： A method for non-invasive assessment of a property or properties of a chemically complex material such as the composition or ash content of coal, or wool, comprises scanning the material with a dual energy x-ray absorption scanner and measuring the intensity of high and low x-ray beams after passing through the material, calculating an effective atomic number for the material, and assessing the property or properties of the material by reference to the effective atomic number calculated for the material. The calculated effective atomic number is compared to stored data correlating effective atomic number to the property or properties of the material.

摘要： A method for preparing zinc oxide nanostructures using arc discharge is disclosed. The method comprises the provision of an anode and a cathode in an arc discharge chamber. Current is supplied to the anode and the cathode to establish an arc discharge between the cathode and the anode to vaporise the anode and produce zinc oxide nanostructures. Contemplated is the use of the zinc oxide nanostructures to produce components that have applications in, for example, optoelectronics, energy storage devices, field emission devices, and sensors such as UV photosensors, gas sensors and humidity sensors. Disclosed is a gas sensor and method for its production, where said method comprises the provision of a sensor substrate comprising a conducting thin film at least partially covering at least two regions on at least one surface of a sensor substrate material to define a gap in the conducting thin film, the application of a mixture of zinc oxide nanostructures and a non-ionic polymer to at least a portion of the gap in the conducting thin film to thereby bridge the gap. Optionally contemplated is a step of annealing the mixture of zinc oxide nanostructures and non-ionic polymer applied to said sensor substrate to produce the sensor component.

摘要： The properties of meat are assessed using a non-invasive dual-energy X-ray absorption scanner. Two images or arrays of the values representative of the intensities of the X-rays at two energy levels are produced (1). These are then processed to determine properties such as the chemical lean, fat percentage, weight, presence of contaminants and the tenderness of the scanned meat (2-5). The meat assessment includes a correction step to overcome unwanted instrumental effects.

摘要： A magnetometer 100, for determining an external magnetic field, comprises a magnetoresistive material forming, an electrode arrangement 104, and a processor. A resistive response of the magnetoresistive material comprises a decreasing response for a first range of increasing applied external magnetic fields, and an increasing response for a second range of increasing applied external magnetic fields. The electrode arrangement 104 measures the resistive response of the magnetoresistive material to the applied external magnetic field. The processor is configured to determine if the external magnetic field applied to the magnetoresistive material is in the first range or in the second range. The processor is configured to determine the external magnetic field based at least partly on the resistive response of the magnetoresistive material to the external magnetic field and whether the external magnetic field is in the first range or in the second range.
