      In this work, a direct comparison of the properties of the TiO2 nanoparticles prepared by microwave and solvothermal methods were carried out and its performance as photoanode in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) was ...
    • Huijse Heise, Pablo Andrés; Estévez Valencia, Pablo; Zegers, Pablo; Príncipe, José C.; Protopapas, Pavlos (IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS, 2011-06)
      In this letter, we propose a method for period estimation in light curves from periodic variable stars using correntropy. Light curves are astronomical time series of stellar brightness over time, and are characterized as ...
    • Argentina, Mederic; Descalzi, Orazio; Tirapegui Zurbano, Enrique (2002)
      We study the stationary solutions of the real Ginzburg{Landau equation with periodic boundary conditions in a nite box. We show explicitly how to construct nucleation solutions allowing transitions between stable plane waves.
    • Malchiodi, Andrea; Mandel, Rainer; Rizzi, Matteo (Springer, 2018)
      In this paper we construct entire solutions to the phase field equation of Willmore type in the Euclidean plane, where W(u) is the standard double-well potential . Such solutions have a non-trivial profile that shadows a ...
