Towards multi-functional SiO₂ @YAG: Ce core–shell optical nanoparticles for solid state lighting applications

This paper aims to investigate the synthesis, structure, and optical properties of SiO₂ @YAG:Ce core–shell optical nanoparticles for solid state lighting applications. YAG:Ce phosphor is a key part in white light emitting diodes (LEDs), with its main functionality being the generation of yellow light. Generated yellow light from...

A Review of External Pressure Testing Techniques for Shells including a Novel Volume-Control Method

A review of conventional testing methods for applying external hydrostatic pressure to buckling-critical shells is presented. A new “volume-control” pressure testing method, aimed at preventing catastrophic specimen failures and improving control of specimen deformation near the critical load, is also introduced. The implementation of...
