The hydrophobicity and optical properties of the HfO2-deposited glass
No full text[[abstract]]The HfO2 thin film was deposited on the glass substrate by physical vapor deposition and exhibited good surface flatness. The coating had smaller grain size with increasing RF power. A control of lower oxidation state of Hf (Hf2+) is a way to enhance the hydrophobicity of the HfO2-deposited glass. The nonlinear refractive index of HfO2 film on the glass substrate was measured by Moire deflectometry, and was of the order of 10(-8) cm(2) W-1. As the RF power increased, the transparent HfO2-deposited glass showed a blue-shift and lower transmission in the near-IR region. On comparing with the pure glass, the HfO2-deposited glass exhibited hydrophobicity and had optical selection in the Vis-IR region for improving optical application.

Structure and physical properties of W-doped HfO2 thin films deposited by simultaneous RF and DC magnetron sputtering
No full text[[abstract]]The W-doped HfO2 (HfO2:W) films were prepared by simultaneous RF magnetron sputtering of HfO2 and DC magnetron sputtering of W. The advantage of this method is that the W content could be independently controlled. The coexistence of W compounds and HfO2 was observed by XPS. Increasing the ratio of O-2 to Ar pressure made the HfO2:W film be more stoichiometric. A control of the presence of HfWO5 is a way to enhance strongly the hydrophilicity of HfO2:W film. By decreasing the W content or increasing the ratio of O-2 to Ar pressure, HfO2:W film exhibited lower surface roughness, higher visible transmission, a higher linear refractive index and a lower stress-optical coefficient.

Translanguaging Pedagogy in CS Ed
No full textEpisode 3: Translanguaging pedagogy in CS Education
This video looks at how multilingual students already use translanguaging in their computer science classes and discusses how CS educators can further support them with translanguaging pedagogy, a framework that prompts teachers to consider their stance, design, and shifts.

Arizona Then and Now: Exploring Arizona's Five Cs Through Photography
No full textabstract: Arizona Then and Now: Exploring Arizona's Five Cs Through Photography is a photographic exploration of the evolution of Arizona's five Cs: cotton, copper, citrus, cattle, and climate. This project first looks to the past to see how these five elements shaped the state of Arizona. Photographs were taken across the valley of these elements, or lack thereof, discovering what Arizona has transformed into in the process. Each chapter of the book begins with a brief history of the element focused on in that chapter, followed by an analytical thought about the photographs taken and how the element has evolved. Each chapter shows two historical photographs followed by a series of photographs taken during the project that the author thought depicted what is seen today. The book ends on a final positive note about how the five Cs are not dead, but soon could be completely taken over. This project was a way for a non-art major to explore the state that she grew up while also challenging herself by more than just taking pictures. The photographs displayed in the book depict a sampling of what the author saw that is left of the five Cs
IR-improved DGLAP-CS QCD parton showers in Pythia8
No full textAbstractWe introduce the recently developed IR-improved DGLAP-CS theory into the showers in Pythia8, as this Monte Carlo event generator is in wide use at LHC. We show that, just as it was true in the IR-improved shower Monte Carlo Herwiri, which realizes the IR-improved DGLAP-CS theory in the Herwig6.5 environment, the soft limit in processes such as single heavy gauge boson production is now more physical in the IR-improved DGLAP-CS theory version of Pythia8. This opens the way to one’s getting a comparison between the actual detector simulations for some of the LHC experiments between IR-improved and unimproved showers as Pythia8 is used in detector simulations at LHC whereas Herwig6.5, the environment of the only other IR-improved DGLAP-CS QCD MC in the literature, Herwiri1.031, is not any longer so used. Our achieving the availability of the IR-improved DGLAP-CS Pythia8 then is an important step in the further development of the LHC precision theory program under development by the author and his collaborators
